The TriStar Phoenix side-by-side in 12 gauge with a case-colored receiver (TriStar part no. 38002) brings classic double-gun looks to the field. The steel frame is laser engraved, and the stock and forearm are select Turkish walnut with a high-gloss finish. Twenty-eight-inch barrels carry a brass bead front sight, and five choke tubes let you tune the pattern. A single selective trigger and a top-tang safety control which barrel fires first. It is a good fit for upland hunters and clay shooters who want a traditional side-by-side.
