If you are looking for an affordable, reliable, and functional home defense shotgun then take a look at the TriStar Cobra III Tactical pump-action shotgun. The Cobra III Tactical offers many of the features you expect from any top-of-the-line home defense shotgun, but for a fraction of the price. It’s equipped with a short 18.5″ combat length barrel that’s designed for close-quarters making it easy to swing in tight spaces. The main feature of the Cobra III Tactical that really stands out is the return spring in the forearm. With a spring-assisted forend, you can expect faster loading and reloading for rapid-fire when fractions of a second count. The Cobra III Tactical has a synthetic fixed stock, a Picatinny rail on the forend, and a blade front sight. There really isn’t a better defensive shotgun in this price range. The chamber accepts 2-3/4″ or 3″ shells for a wide range of load options. The barrel is threaded to accept the Beretta/Benelli Mobil Choke system giving this home defense shotgun a dual purpose as a fantastic turkey or hog hunting machine!
