The Charles Daly 930382 12 Gauge 3" 5-Round Semi-Auto Shotgun delivers reliable semi-automatic shotgun performance for tactical, home defense, and sporting applications.

The 3" chamber accommodates both 2.75" and 3" ammunition, providing flexibility for various tactical and hunting scenarios without requiring caliber changes.

This semi-automatic shotgun features a gas-operated system that cycles reliably across a wide range of ammunition loads, minimizing the manual manipulation required between shots compared to pump-action designs. The 5-round magazine capacity balances firepower with practical carry weight, and the inertia-driven design reduces cleaning intervals in field conditions. At 8.8 lbs, the shotgun maintains a practical balance between controlability and structural rigidity, while the 38-inch overall length and compact profile suit tactical carbine roles and close-quarters applications.

Law enforcement, military contractors, and home defense-oriented shooters benefit from the Charles Daly's straightforward ergonomics and proven track record in duty and training environments. The shotgun integrates with standard 12 gauge ammunition, eliminating supply chain complications, and accepts aftermarket accessories designed for modern tactical shotgun platforms. Operators upgrading from pump-action systems appreciate the reduced manual cycling, faster target transitions, and the reliability record established by Chiappa across law enforcement and military procurement channels.
