This week, we’re taking a closer look at the TriStar Matrix. The company's first inertia-driven semi-automatic shotgun, the TriStar Matrix comes in 12- or 20-gauge chamberings, with a 14.25-inch length-of-pull. A fiber-optic front sight post naturally draws the eye when pointing at birds, while an oversized trigger guard allows for the comfortable use of cold-weather gear when shooting. Learn more about it in the video embedded above, hosted by Senior Executive Editor Jon Draper. MSRP: $595-685; tristararms.com
