The TriStar Viper G2 Turkey delivers specialized performance for turkey hunting with its compact .410 bore configuration and precision-engineered features. This semi-automatic shotgun combines the reliability of gas-operated cycling with purpose-built turkey hunting specifications that maximize effectiveness in dense cover situations.
What Makes This Different
Unlike standard .410 shotguns, the Viper G2 Turkey features a bronze Cerakote receiver finish that provides superior corrosion resistance compared to traditional bluing. The 24-inch barrel length optimizes velocity for .410 loads while maintaining maneuverability in tight spaces. The inclusion of four MobilChoke tubes allows hunters to fine-tune patterns for specific ammunition and hunting conditions, delivering versatility typically found only in larger gauge firearms.
