Description
Most over/unders are built for clay courses and dry-weather bird hunts. The TriStar Hunter Mag II is built for the marsh. With 3.5 inch chambers, chrome-lined 28 inch barrels, and a Midnight Bronze Cerakote finish over the metalwork, this is a double gun that can take a beating in a duck blind and keep swinging. The synthetic stock and forend wear Mossy Oak Shadow Grass Blades camo, a pattern that disappears into cattails and flooded timber edges, and the injection-molded furniture won't swell or crack the way wood can after a season of wet mornings.
What Makes the Hunter Mag II Work in the Field
The action is where this gun earns its keep. TriStar sealed it up to keep grit and debris out, and the self-adjusting locking lugs take up wear over time so lockup stays tight year after year. Steel mono-block barrel construction adds strength where it matters, and the chrome-lined bores make cleanup after a day of steel shot quick and painless. A single selective trigger and top tang barrel selector let you choose which barrel fires first, which is handy when you're running two different chokes for close and far shots. The tang safety falls right under your thumb, and the fiber optic front sight picks up light fast when birds drop in at first legal shooting time.
Choke Options Out of the Box
TriStar includes five Beretta/Benelli Mobil-style choke tubes with this gun: Skeet, Improved Cylinder, Modified, Improved Modified, and Full, plus a choke box and wrench. That Mobil thread pattern is one of the most common out there, so aftermarket waterfowl and turkey tubes are easy to find if you want to go further. Stack a Modified over a Full for pass shooting, or run IC and Modified over decoys.
At roughly 7.3 pounds, the Hunter Mag II carries comfortably on long walks to the blind but has enough heft to soak up magnum loads. For hunters who want a camo double gun with serious chamber capacity, this one covers a lot of ground.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can the TriStar Hunter Mag II handle 3.5 inch waterfowl loads?
Yes, that's the whole point of this model. Both barrels are chambered for 3.5 inch magnum shells, and the steel mono-block barrel construction plus self-adjusting locking lugs are built to hold up under heavy loads. It also runs 2.75 and 3 inch shells just fine, so you can practice with lighter target loads and switch to magnums for the blind.
What choke tubes fit the Hunter Mag II?
It uses the Beretta/Benelli Mobil thread pattern, which is one of the most widely supported choke systems on the market. Five tubes come in the box: Skeet, Improved Cylinder, Modified, Improved Modified, and Full, along with a wrench and storage box. If you want dedicated waterfowl or turkey tubes down the road, plenty of aftermarket options are available.
Is the Hunter Mag II safe to shoot with steel shot?
Yes, the chrome-lined barrels are rated for steel shot, which is exactly what most buyers run through this gun for ducks and geese. Just follow the standard rule of not shooting steel through the Full choke; stick with Modified or more open constrictions for steel loads. The chrome lining also makes bore cleanup easier after wet hunts.
Does the TriStar Hunter Mag II have ejectors or extractors?
This model uses extractors, which lift the spent hulls so you can pull them out by hand rather than flinging them into the mud. A lot of waterfowlers prefer this since it keeps empties in the blind instead of scattered around the marsh. It also makes saving hulls for reloading a lot simpler.
