The Citadel PAT in 12 gauge with a 20-inch barrel (brand part no. FRPATMB1220) is a pump-action shotgun built around a full-length Picatinny rail system for optics and lights, giving shooters a tactical-ready platform for home defense and range use. Citadel chrome-lines the barrel for corrosion resistance and mounts a raised fiber optic front sight, while the lower forend also carries a Picatinny rail for lights or a foregrip. The stock is fixed black synthetic with a black pistol grip and a ventilated buttpad to soak up recoil, and the shotgun ships with a fixed Modified choke. Among pump-action shotguns, the PAT favors shooters who want rail space for a full defensive-shotgun loadout.
