TriStar Arms Viper G2 Bronze semi-automatic shotgun now comes in .410 bore. This combination opens up new opportunities for shotgunners of all ages. The Viper is a great hunting gun with little recoil. Suitable for a range of small game such as birds, rabbit and squirrel.
The .410 bore, commonly yet incorrectly called .410 gauge, can even handle home defense duty. Both American Derringer and Winchester offer .410 bore 000 buckshot with five pellets in 3-inch (76 mm) and three pellets in 2.5-inch (64 mm) shells. This compared to nine pellets of 00 in a 2¾ inch 12 gauge.

Action:
Gas operated Semi-automatic. Bolt remains open after last round is fired. If magazine and chamber are both loaded, opening action will result in ejecting shell from chamber and cycling new shell from magazine into the chamber. If operator desires to unload chamber only, slightly push lifter up and open action. This cuts the magazine off from cycling new shell while unloading the chamber. Chamber will remain closed if shells still remain in magazine however.
Safety:
The primary safety is located on the back side of the trigger guard. When engaged, the safety is designed to block the trigger, hammer lever and the hammer which makes the firing mechanism immobile.
Magazine:
Tubular magazine, bottom loading. Shot plug included and comes installed. Shot plug easily removable by unscrewing the magazine cap. Simply pull plug out and replace magazine cap.
