The TriStar Setter S/T 12 Gauge delivers reliable semi-automatic performance for sporting clays and upland hunting with its chrome-lined barrel and Turkish walnut stock. This gas-operated shotgun handles 2¾" and 3" shells with consistent cycling across various loads.
What Makes This Different
The Setter S/T features a chrome-lined barrel that resists corrosion and maintains accuracy over thousands of rounds. The ventilated rib provides superior heat dissipation during extended shooting sessions compared to solid-rib designs. Turkish walnut construction offers durability and weather resistance while maintaining the classic aesthetic that synthetic stocks cannot match.

- Chrome-lined 28" barrel with ventilated rib for enhanced cooling and sight alignment
- 2+1 capacity with 3" chamber capability for versatile load options
- Turkish walnut stock and forend with gloss finish for weather protection
- Gas-operated semi-automatic action cycles reliably with various shell weights

Field testing shows consistent ejection and feeding with loads ranging from light 2¾" target shells to heavy 3" waterfowl rounds. The 28" barrel length provides excellent swing characteristics for crossing shots on clay targets while maintaining sufficient velocity for ethical hunting ranges. Weather sealing at critical junction points prevents moisture intrusion during adverse conditions.
