Hatsan Escort Slugger Tactical Pump Shotgun, 12 Gauge, 18-Inch

The Hatsan Escort Slugger Tactical in 12 gauge (brand part no. HEST12180001) is a manually cycled pump-action shotgun built around an 18-inch black chrome-finished Ni-Cr-Mo steel barrel, giving shooters a rugged tactical platform for home defense and slug work. Escatech houses the action in a black anodized aircraft-alloy receiver and pairs it with a synthetic stock and forend plus a rubber recoil pad for comfortable handling under heavier magnum loads. Listed here despite being pump-action rather than semi-automatic, this shotgun feeds from a 5+1 capacity magazine and uses a fixed cylinder choke suited to slugs and buckshot alike.
