About the Yildiz YP12SC

The Yildiz YP12SC is a 12-gauge pump-action (slide-action) shotgun manufactured by Yildiz Silah Sanayi in Burdur, Turkey. Built around an aluminum-alloy receiver with a steel barrel chambered for 3-inch (12/76) magnum shells, it feeds from a tubular magazine holding four rounds and uses a dual-action-bar slide mechanism. The gun ships with a black synthetic stock and forend, a ventilated rib barrel with a fiber-optic front sight, and a set of interchangeable flush-fit choke tubes, and is marketed as an affordable general-purpose hunting, sporting, and home-defense shotgun.

Yildiz is best known for its budget over/under sporting shotguns, and the YP12 series is the company's foray into pump guns, offering a low-cost Turkish alternative to established slide-action shotguns like the Remington 870 and Mossberg 500.
