Tokarev USA 21000173 TAR 12 Gauge Semi-Auto 3" 5+1 18.50" Black Steel Barrel, Urban Camo Receiver & Cheek Riser Compatible Synthetic Stock

The Tokarev USA TAR 12 Gauge Semi-Auto shotgun with 18.50-inch barrel and urban camo receiver brings modern tactical ergonomics to the shotgun platform. Built on AR/M4 controls and handling familiar to operators and law enforcement, this 3-inch magnum-capable system delivers a 5+1 round capacity in a package designed for both accessibility and modularity. The integrated Picatinny rail system on receiver and handguard provides multiple mounting points for optics, lights, and other tactical accessories.

At 9.75 pounds with overall dimensions of 30.5 inches length, the TAR-12 SB balances weight distribution and control across extended shooting sessions. The 18.50-inch black steel barrel provides velocity regulation appropriate for buckshot patterns and slug accuracy at intermediate distances. The synthetic stock with integrated cheek riser support allows consistent sight picture acquisition and rapid target transitions—critical for tactical applications. Manual safety placement and charging controls mirror AR-pattern operation, minimizing transition time for shooters already proficient with modern rifle platforms.

Law enforcement tactical teams, home-defense shooters, and competition shooters benefit from the TAR-12's familiarity and customization depth. The 5+1 capacity suits breaching operations and rapid-engagement scenarios where semi-auto performance is required. Accessory rail integration supports mounting of modern combat sights, lasers, and mounted light systems for low-light entry work. The urban camo receiver aesthetic and modular design appeal to operators who demand tactical functionality without compromise.

This shotgun occupies a distinct niche: it bridges the gap between traditional pump-action simplicity and modern tactical rifle ergonomics. The AR-pattern manual of arms reduces training overhead for departments and units already invested in AR platforms, while the semi-auto capability and rail system support contemporary load-out requirements for close-quarters and intermediate-range work.
