The Escort BullTac is a 20 gauge semi-auto shotgun (brand part no. HEBA 2018PX01) from Hatsan USA / Escort Shotguns, built as a compact, tactical-style platform suited to security and defensive-minded shooters. An 18-inch barrel and 5-round magazine keep it fast-handling and quick to run, while a full-length Picatinny rail accepts a red dot or other optic and doubles as a mounting point for the included flip-up sights. Chrome-plated Cr-Ni-Mo steel resists corrosion, and a matte black finish keeps the look purpose-built rather than flashy. It is a straightforward, no-frills shotgun for anyone who wants a compact 20 gauge built around home and property defense.
