I have been Looking at Tri Star Raptor Reviews and it seem like it is a Reliable shotgun.

I was looking at the Tri Star Raptor youth 20 Gauge.

My first question,
I see they are a Turkish made Shotgun.
Are there Other Brands that are essentially the same Shotgun but Just a different Brand that can be bought cheaper than the Tri Star brand ??

My Next Question
Are their Accessory barrels available as I would be interested in a 20 inch or so Barrell if it would function with a shorter barrel.I realize I might have to fiddle with it to get it to function with #3 Buckshot at 1200 FPS and I have no problem with doing so.

My Next question
Does anyone make a Raptor style grip that will fit on it (similiar to the grip on a Mossberg Shockwave) or a Pachmayr Grip for it or one that can be modified to work on it ?

And Last Question
Where is the cheapest Place to buy one of these ?

Thanks

bcraig:

1) The Raptor is made in Turkey by Kral. There are other brands/models that look similar but are made by other companies.

2) I contacted Tristar about additional barrels and was informed that no slug barrels, etc. were available.

3) Not sure about the grip.

4) I got mine (20 gauge youth model) at Walmart for a couple of dollars shy of $300.

Since the stock is shorter I put a Limbsaver (size small/medium) pad on it to increase the LOP.

The finish is not the best but for what I paid I really like the gun!

Take care,
Bob
