Don’t let appearances fool you, this is not a shotgun. It is something completely different. The 12 gauge Remington V3 Tac-13 is a\u00a026.5-inch long semi-automatic firearm with a Raptor grip. Built on an aluminum receiver, it weighs under 6 pounds and holds up to five 2 3\/4 inch shells in the tube magazine with one more in the chamber.<\/p>\n

Those of you who are aware of NFA restrictions on shotguns may wonder why this doesn’t require a tax stamp, fingerprints, and six-month wait.\u00a0 The short answer is with an overall length over 26 inches, a smooth bore and no shoulder stock, the V3 TAC-13 is classified as a firearm, not a shotgun.<\/p>\n\"Completely\n

      When you pick up the Tac-13, you want to bring it to your eye to aim. We tend to go with what we know: shotguns and handguns. The TAC-13 is a whole different thing.<\/p>\n

      The best way of making this work fast is to hold it low and near your hip. The trigger is very fast. There is a little pre-travel but no over travel with a short reset. The video below was shot with Remington Reduced Recoil 00 buck.<\/p>\n
