Citadel BOSS-25 12 Gauge Semi-Auto Shotgun, 18″ Barrel

Product Description

The Citadel BOSS-25 is a 12 gauge semi-auto shotgun with an 18″ barrel. Overall length is 37.75″, so it stays handy in tight spaces and easy to move around a range or a vehicle. The chamber takes 3″ shells.

The big difference from a typical tube-fed shotgun is the feed system. The BOSS-25 runs a detachable box magazine and holds 5+1 rounds. Swapping magazines is quicker than loading shells one at a time. The stock is black synthetic with a pistol grip, and the finish is Burnt Bronze Cerakote. Sights are adjustable.

Rails and optic mount

An integral Picatinny optic mount (0 MOA) is built in, and the rail is M-LOK/Picatinny. You can add a red dot or other optic without a separate base. M-LOK slots give you a place to mount accessories. This model is California Approved.

It fits buyers who want a modular home-defense shotgun, or a range gun they can set up their own way. Good gear to pair with it includes a red dot sight, a weapon light, a sling, spare magazines, hearing protection and a cleaning kit. Pick shells that suit the job, whether that is target loads for practice or defensive loads for home use.
