TriStar Viper Max: Versatile Waterfowl and Upland Performance

The Viper Max represents a thoughtful approach to modern shotgun design—a gas-operated semi-automatic that adapts to your shooting needs rather than forcing you to adapt to it.

Key Features

Dual-Piston Gas System The innovative two-piston design allows you to transition seamlessly from light target loads to heavy magnum waterfowl ammunition without adjustment. The secondary piston stores conveniently in the forearm for quick access when needed.

Practical Design Elements

  • 30" vented rib barrel with matted sight plane for reduced glare
  • Fiber optic front sight for quick target acquisition in low light
  • Magazine cutoff action for safe chamber management
  • Quick-shot plug system (removable without tools)
  • Swivel studs for sling attachment

Ergonomic Construction The steel receiver pairs with a Realtree Max-7 synthetic stock—a durable, weather-resistant choice that won't swell or crack in harsh conditions. The synthetic furniture also reduces weight compared to wood alternatives.

Included Accessories

The Viper Max ships with four Beretta/Benelli Mobil-compatible chokes: skeet, improved cylinder, modified, and full. This gives you immediate flexibility for different hunting scenarios and clay target sports.

The Bottom Line

This is a working shotgun built for hunters and sport shooters who value reliability and adaptability. The dual-piston system eliminates the guesswork from load selection, making it an excellent choice for waterfowl hunters who encounter varying weather and ammunition availability.
