SDS Imports introduces following Tokarev USA’s success with their excellent TX HDA1 12-gauge pump shotgun, it is appropriate they follow it with the introduction of two new lighter-recoiling 20-gauge pump-action shotguns; the TX3 20HDA1, with its black anodized aluminum receiver and matte blued-steel like finish chrome-lined barrel, and their 4140 chromoly-steel 20HDMA1 Marine Pump Action Shotgun. Tokarev USA’s newly introduced shotguns will serve equally well for home and self protection, law enforcement, and hunting deer, turkey, upland game and waterfowl or simply enjoying range time to become more proficient shooting clay targets. These two are ideal shotguns, regardless whether someone is a novice or an experienced shooter.

The 20HDMA1 is an ideal choice for anyone who spends time in “salty situations and climes”. Anyone who owns one of the new Tokarev USA shotguns can know they were produced on state-of-the-art CNC equipment but with the quality of old world manufacturing knowledge! These two highly functional, reliable and good-looking pump-action shotguns are economically priced. Either or both, will fit nicely into anyone’s budget.

Tokarev USA’s two new shotguns are chambered for 20-gauge. Both are stocked with attractive Turkish walnut forend and butt stock, which has a thick rubber recoil pad to reduce felt recoil. All exposed metal parts of the TX3 20HDA1 have a non-luster, matte, black finish. The receiver is of an aluminum alloy. The 20HDMA1 Marine’s barrel is made of 4140 chromoly steel, while the receiver is of an aluminum-alloy which were bead-blasted before applying an electroless nickel plating which inhibits rust and corrosion, making it an ideal shotgun for use on, near and around salt water. Both models come equipped with sling studs.

The TX3 20HDA1’s chrome-lined barrel like that of the TX3 20HDMA1 is 18.5-inches in length, both are complete with a fiber-optic front sight. The rear sight is a fully adjustable ghost-ring mounted on a Picatinny rail which can also be used for scope-mounting. Both shotguns come with 3 choke tubes; Cylinder, Modified and Full. Barrels are threaded to accept Benelli choke pattern tubes. With proper choke tubes both slugs and steel shot can be used in addition to lead shot. With both models the barrel is covered with a unique and highly functional vented, heat shield!

The contoured design trigger guard assembly allows for quickly moving the Remington Model 870-style crossbar safety from “safe” to “fire”. It also houses the “action release” should a loaded shell need to be removed from the barrel. Both models of the shotgun have a single extractor.

The tubular magazine has a shell capacity of four for 3-inch and five for 2 ¾-inch shells. A magazine extension can be added to increase shell capacity. However, for hunting migratory game birds, the gun comes with a 3-round magazine limiter.
