Description
There's something appealing about a shotgun that keeps things simple, and the GForce Arms GF3P is exactly that. It's a tube-fed 12 gauge pump with an 18.5 inch barrel, a black synthetic pistol grip, and a Burnt Bronze Cerakote finish that looks sharp and shrugs off moisture and handling wear. At just 29.75 inches overall and around 5.5 pounds, this thing is easy to maneuver in tight quarters, easy to stash in a truck or cabin, and easy to bring along when a full-length shotgun would just get in the way.
What the GF3P Brings to the Table
The 3 inch chamber handles everything from light 2-3/4 inch target loads up to full-power 3 inch magnums, and the 4+1 tube gives you five rounds on tap. A fixed front bead keeps sighting fast and fuss-free, and the fixed modified bore keeps patterns useful at practical distances. You also get a removable plug and a dovetail rail for adding an optic or accessory if you want to build on it later. Pump guns earn their keep by cycling whatever you feed them, and the manual action here means you're not depending on a gas system to run light loads.
Living with a Pistol Grip Pump Gun
Fair warning from someone who's shot plenty of these: a pistol grip 12 gauge takes some technique. Push forward with the support hand, pull back with the grip hand, and keep it locked in. Once you get the hang of it, the compact format is a lot of fun on the range and genuinely handy for close-in work. The rubberized grip texture helps you hang on through recoil, and the short overall length makes it point quick.
Why the GF3P Rex Makes Sense
GForce Arms has built a reputation for delivering a lot of shotgun without a lot of fuss, and they back their guns with a limited lifetime warranty. If you've been wanting a compact 12 gauge that stands out from the usual matte black lineup, the Burnt Bronze GF3P is a solid way to get there.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can the GForce GF3P shoot 3 inch magnum shells?
Yes. The GF3P has a 3 inch chamber, so it runs both 2-3/4 inch and 3 inch 12 gauge shells. Since it's a pump action, it will cycle light target loads, buckshot, slugs, and heavy magnums without the ammo sensitivity you sometimes see in semi-autos. Just expect stout recoil with 3 inch loads through a pistol grip gun this light.
Is the GF3P a pump action or a semi-auto?
This is a pump action shotgun. It feeds from a tubular magazine under the barrel with a 4+1 capacity, and the manual pump action is a big part of why these guns are so dependable across a wide range of loads. If you want a semi-auto from GForce, look at models like the GF99 or GFBP instead.
How hard is a pistol grip 12 gauge like this to shoot?
It's manageable once you learn the right technique, but it does take practice. Keep a firm push-pull grip, start with lighter 2-3/4 inch loads, and work your way up. The rubberized grip texture helps a lot, and at 5.5 pounds and under 30 inches overall, the compact handling is the whole point of this setup.
Does the GForce Arms GF3P come with a warranty?
Yes, GForce Arms backs their shotguns with a limited lifetime warranty. The Burnt Bronze Cerakote finish also adds long-term corrosion protection, so this is a gun built to hold up with basic care and regular cleaning.
