The DP-12 is a bullpup 12-gauge pump action double-barreled shotgun designed by Standard Manufacturing. It has two tube magazines, each of which feeds its own barrel. Each magazine tube can hold up to seven 2.75-inch (70 mm) 12-gauge shotshells or six 3-inch (76 mm) shotgun shells.[1] 16 (2¾") or 14 (3") in total with indicator windows.

Operation[edit]

The DP-12 shotgun is a manually operated, pump action weapon. The first trigger pull fires the right barrel and the second fires the left.[2] The sliding forend is connected to the bolt by dual operating bars. Ammunition is fed from two independent magazine tubes, located below the barrels.

Rounds are loaded into the magazines through a large loading/ejection port, located at the bottom rear of the gun in the stock, behind the pistol grip. Empty shells are ejected down through the same port. The safety is a cross-bolt manual safety button located above the grip. This, coupled with the center loading and ejection, makes the gun fully ambidextrous.

Sighting equipment is not included, but iron sights and/or a red dot sight can be installed using the standard Picatinny rail located above the barrels. A second Picatinny rail at the end of the slide (under the muzzles) can be used for a forward grip or other accessories.

Chokes[edit]

The barrels come threaded with a Tru-Choke thread pattern and two flush-mount spreader choke tubes. There are two optional chokes from the manufacturer, the doorbuster tactical choke and stiletto choke.[3]

Colors[edit]

There are several different color variants of this shotgun. They include black, flat-dark earth, green, tan, gold and black & gold two-tone.

How many rounds does a DP

The DP-12 is a bullpup 12-gauge pump action double-barreled shotgun designed by Standard Manufacturing. It has two tube magazines, each of which feeds its own barrel. Each magazine tube can hold up to seven 2.75-inch (70 mm) 12-gauge shotshells or six 3-inch (76 mm) shotgun shells.

Does the DP

DP-12 operates uniquely. When charged, one pull of the trigger fires the right barrel, and a second pull fires the left. Work the slide to eject the two spent hulls and insert two fresh rounds—you're guaranteed two shots with each slide rather than the one you have in a standard pump-action.

When did the DP

The DP-12 Double Pump Shotgun available on our website. With a receiver built from aircraft-grade 7075 aluminum, and a solid, well-made polymer frame, the DP-12 was first introduced in 2015. It has two separate magazine tubes, each holding 7 rounds with the capacity for a +1 in the chamber.

Is the DP

The recoil-reducing device inside the stock made the gun a pleasure to shoot. While an afternoon of shooting a weapon is not grounds for any declaration of durability, the DP-12 ran flawlessly. I had no malfunctions of any kind even after “speed shooting” so much ammunition I lost count.
