Youth shooting sports have always been important to TriStar Arms. To celebrate and garner interest in youth shooters, TriStar has expanded its popular Raptor line in 2014 with the addition of a 20-gauge Raptor Youth model dipped in Muddy Girl camouflage and a version featuring the Vista Next Micro Print pattern.

Both new models are gas operated, with a 24-inch barrel, and come with a fiber optic front site, swivel studs, and three choke tubes (IC, M, F).

  • Manual E-Z load magazine cut-off
  • Vented rib with matted sight plane
  • Fiber optic site
  • 5 round magazine (shot plug included)
  • Chrome-lined chamber and barrel
  • Swivel studs
  • Average weight: 6.1 lbs
  • Stock Dimensions: 1 ½”x 2 ½”x 13”

The Raptor also provides a 3-inch chamber to take 2 ¾-inch or 3-inch shells and allows shooters to use both light and heavy waterfowl loads.

“For many, the first memories of hunting and shooting are from when they were young, and often times these memories are some of the best,” said Ryan Bader, sales and marketing manager at TriStar Arms. “The new Raptor Youth models are quality and affordable firearms that are perfect for young shooters and will hopefully provide them with lasting memories.”

Located in Kansas City, Missouri, TriStar Arms is a primary importer of quality Turkish shotguns and handguns. The company is driven by the same mission that it set out on since its inception – to provide high-performance firearms for hunters, recreational shooters and home defense at a fraction of the price and to deliver fast and friendly service at all times. Every firearm that TriStar Arms imports is rigorously tested throughout each stage of production to ensure that its customers receive value that can be passed down for generations.
