Tristar Plants TriStar Hunter Mag II

Yes, this shotgun features a 3.5-inch chamber, which is specifically designed to handle heavy 3.5-inch magnum waterfowl loads, making it a capable choice for geese and large ducks.

The single selective trigger allows you to choose which barrel fires first. You can typically toggle the selection using the safety mechanism, giving you control over which choke or load you want to deploy first depending on the shooting scenario.

The chrome lining provides excellent corrosion resistance and makes the barrel easier to clean after a long day in the marsh. While it is more durable than a standard steel bore, you should still perform routine cleaning to prevent rust and ensure consistent performance.

The finish is designed for durability in outdoor environments, but like any firearm, it requires proper care. While the camo pattern helps with concealment, you should wipe the shotgun down and dry it thoroughly after exposure to rain or humidity to maintain the integrity of the finish and the metal components.

The included MobilChoke tubes are generally compatible with steel shot, but you should always check the specific markings on each choke tube. Ensure you are using the appropriate constriction for steel shot to avoid damaging the barrel or the choke.

At 7.9 lbs, this shotgun has enough mass to help absorb some of the recoil generated by heavy 3.5-inch magnum loads. While recoil is subjective, the weight provides a stable platform that helps manage the kick better than lighter, field-carry shotguns.
