Turkish handgun maker Girsan has produced their first shotgun, the MC 312. This gun is one of the growing number of non-Benelli/Beretta inertia operated shotguns being developed now that the original Benelli patents have expired.

THe shotguns are available with a 3″ chamber, a range of barrel lengths and a number of finishes.

The company is currently looking for overseas distributers.

    After seeing that fake carbon fiber I need a retinal cleanse. Real carbon fiber is an excellent material, but still hideous, so why fake it?

      @Stanislao Maybe the same idea as CF stickers on cars, just for looks..

    What chokes does it come with and what interchange do they use for aftermarket chokes? Do they come with a drop and cast shim kit? Are the bores hard chrome lined? From the looks they are a Stoeger copy and the Stoeger still cost less than these. on Buds they list the LOP as 13.5" I checked all girsan shotguns on their site and they all show 13.5 LOP. Hope that is a mistake. What about the Warranty? Is there going to be a warranty service center and parts depot here in the US for these? They look interesting but I will give them a year in someone else's hands before I spend the money. In inertia guns I have several Benellis, a beretta and a Stoeger and all have thousands of rounds thru them in real-life hunting conditions (rain, ice, dirt) without a failure but you can never have too many guns....
