UPDATED FOR 2024! The ESCORT BTS Bullpup offers all the perks of the VTS series shotguns in a more compact, portable package. This next-generation shotgun is available in either 12 ga or .410 cal and is offered in either black or FDE Cerakote. The gun’s SMART Valve Piston will cycle 7/8 oz to 2 oz magnum loads in 2 ¾” and 3” magnum rounds, credited to its self-regulating design. The patented design is so reliable that one can mix heavy and light loads in the same magazine without a hiccup. The BTS is optics ready with the included detachable, adjustable flip-up sights and built with a 14″ long picatinny optics rail. The synthetic barrel cover features Hatsan’s patented ThermoDefend technology that absorbs and dissipates heat. The reversible charging handle offers the ability for ambidextrous operation. The BTS Bullpup is slender, with smaller dimensions, thus it is more agile to and at the shoulder. Great for close-quarter action.
