For those looking to enter the target-sport side of shotgunning or are looking for an entry-level upland game gun, TriStar Arms presents its TT-15 Field series of boxlock over-under shotguns. Featuring a matte-finished silver receiver and Turkish walnut, TriStar’s TT-15 comes available in a full suite of chambering options, from .410 Bore to the largest available at size 12 gauge.

TriStar Arms’ TT-15 Field model in 28-ga. provides a 28” chrome-lined steel barrel with 3” chamber. Mono-bloc construction is used for manufacturing the barrel and chamber set, and the shotguns are threaded for extended, target-style Beretta MobilChoke shot constrictors—five included. Along the barrel’s top side and joint between, TriStar options its TT-15 with ventilated ribs, and a red fiber-optic sight is included. At the opposite end, mechanical ejectors are utilized on this model, along with a mechanical trigger mechanism.

A safety mechanism, barrel selector and top lever are located on the gun's receiver tang—manual operation of the safety is required for engagement. Additionally, the safety of the TT-15 Field, when engaged, is designed to block the trigger, hammer lever and the hammer, which immobilizes the firing mechanism.

Putting the TT-15 Field on target is aided by well-shaped Turkish walnut featuring laser-engraved panels of checkering at the gun’s fore-arm and wrist. A rubber recoil caps the buttstock to help reduce recoil imparted from upsized 3” 28-ga. shotshells.
