Legacy Sports Citadel "Warthog"

Biggfoot44 · Jan 16, 2021

There I was , minding my own business in a gun store , and one of these jumped up and kidnapped me .

Generic Turkish clone/ knockoff of a Benelli . 12ga semi, black synthetic, top of reciever grooved apparently for optic mount, 3 ( extended, non- ported) choke tubes.

The thing that really attracted me was 20in bbl , Threaded for choke tubes . I can appreciate short , but I also like good patterns .

Added- Under $400 NIB , with the above referenced 3 tubes . Too new to be listed in Carlson's interchange chart , eyeballing , I hope they're Win/ Moss/ Brn std Invector .

Update

Researched a little more .

It's not a Benelli clone , it's gas , supposedly based upon Rem 1100 design .

Mfg by Armsan in Istanbul . The their guns are also imported to under brand names of Weatherby, Mossberg, and Tri Star , and are sold under their own name in many parts of the world , including UK .

The full size version is the Phenomenon , in several variants .

I picked up a warthog recently because I liked the idea of the 20inch barrel with choke tubes. I’m not sure if they are all like mine but it needed some smoothing out. Lots of rough parts. Not surprised by this, expected actually. I like to tinker so not a big deal. I slicked it up some and shot a round of trap with it today to check function. No issues and it cycled using game loads. It is definitely not a trap gun, lol. It is a Beretta gas system copy, the action Spring is on the mag tube.

I picked up one about a month ago. It is a nice shooter. My wife likes it as well. She is getting pretty good with it.

I know that such things are the rage, but I prefer my shotguns to be shotguns, and my ARs to be ARs .

Didn't appear to hold up well to testing.

Might be ok if you stay away from slugs and 3" shells, but even then had multiple failures with birdshot.
