TriStar Arms states that the Viper G2 line of shotguns has proven itself capable of peak performance, and with its incredible success, the company’s chosen to further enhance the line. Among other changes, the gun manufacturer made enhancements to user controls so shooters get the next-level performance they need. This is a quick-handling shotgun with easy-to-operate controls, even if the user is wearing heavy gloves.
The TriStar Viper G2 Pro Series of shotguns is comprised of semi-automatic, gas-operated guns. These models are made for the ultimate in reliability and functionality. Models are available with either wood or synthetic furniture. Guns have 3-inch chambers, so shooters can use either 2 3/4-inch or 3-inch shotshells. These shotguns excel whether you’re using light target loads or heavy waterfowl loads.
All models have a removable choke system that utilizes Beretta/Benelli Mobil Threads and ship with three choke tubes: IC, M, and F. A choke box and wrench are also included. The receivers of the shotguns are Cerakoted for incredible durability and resistance to use-related wear, making these solid field guns. On the wooden furniture models, high-grade Turkish walnut with cut checkering and semi-gloss finish is used for a classic aesthetic appearance. Other features include a rubber recoil pad, standard fiber optic sight, and shim kits. The Viper G2 Pro is backed by a five-year warranty.
