Frequently asked questions

Does the Viper G2 cycle standard 12-gauge ammunition reliably?

Yes. The Viper G2 semi-auto action handles standard 12-gauge loads. The inertia-driven system cycles factory ammunition consistently, though some shooters report slightly softer cycling with lighter field loads compared to heavier 3-inch magnums.

What is the weight and handling profile of this 26-inch model?

The Viper G2 ships at approximately 8.45 pounds with a 37.4-inch overall length. The 26-inch barrel balances swing speed with sight radius, making it responsive for moving targets while maintaining the sight picture discipline shooters expect.

What do I need to bring for DROS in California?

Bring a valid California driver's license or ID card, proof of residency, your Firearm Safety Certificate (FSC), and payment for the firearm and transfer fees. Find gun store Daly City at TacticCAL.
