Description

Finding a pump gun that fits a smaller-framed hunter without feeling like a toy is harder than it should be. The TriStar Cobra III Compact gets it right. It's a real working 20 gauge with a 13 inch length of pull, a 24 inch barrel that keeps the whole gun quick and manageable, and a 3 inch chamber that handles everything from light clay loads to heavier waterfowl and turkey loads when the moment calls for it. At just over 37 inches overall, it carries easily through brush and mounts fast for new wingshooters still building their swing.

What the Cobra III Compact Brings to the Field

The barrel is chrome lined for easier cleaning and long-term durability, topped with a vent rib and a bright fiber optic front sight that pulls the eye right where it needs to be on a flushing bird or crossing clay. The choke system uses common Beretta/Benelli Mobil threads, and TriStar includes Improved Cylinder, Modified, and Full tubes along with a choke box and wrench. That thread pattern is one of the most widely supported out there, so upgrading to a turkey tube or specialty choke down the road is simple and affordable. Capacity is 5+1, and a shot plug comes installed for the bird fields.

Built to Grow With a Young Hunter

The black synthetic stock and extended forearm are injection molded and shrug off weather, mud, and the occasional bump against a fence post, which makes this a great truck-and-blind gun. A rubber recoil pad takes the sting out of stouter loads, and 20 gauge recoil is already gentle enough that new hunters can practice all afternoon without developing a flinch. Sling swivel studs come standard for long walks in.

A Dependable First Pump Gun

TriStar backs the Cobra III with a five-year warranty, and every model in the line runs through endurance testing before it earns a spot in the catalog. For a first shotgun, a dedicated youth gun, or just a compact 20 gauge that handles well for anyone, this one covers a lot of ground without complicating things.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the TriStar Cobra III Compact a good first shotgun for a young hunter?

It's one of the better options in its class for exactly that. The shortened 13 inch length of pull and 24 inch barrel fit smaller frames well, and 20 gauge recoil is mild enough for extended practice sessions. The rubber recoil pad and fiber optic sight make it easy for new wingshooters to shoot comfortably and stay on target.

What choke tubes fit the Cobra III Compact?

It uses the Beretta/Benelli Mobil choke thread pattern, which is one of the most common systems on the market. It ships with Improved Cylinder, Modified, and Full tubes plus a wrench and storage box. Aftermarket tubes like extended turkey chokes in Mobil threads are widely available if you want to expand later.

Can this shotgun handle 3 inch magnum shells?

Yes, the Cobra III Compact has a 3 inch chamber and cycles everything from light 2 3/4 inch target loads up to heavy 3 inch waterfowl and turkey loads. The chrome lined barrel and chamber hold up well to steel shot and frequent use. Since it's a pump action, it cycles any load reliably without worrying about cycling issues that can affect semi-autos with light loads.

What is the capacity of the TriStar Cobra III Compact 20 gauge?

It holds 5 rounds in the tubular magazine plus one in the chamber for 5+1 total with 2 3/4 inch shells. A removable shot plug comes included to limit the magazine for migratory bird hunting, and it's quick to take out when you're shooting clays or hunting small game.
