Frequently Asked Questions
Remington Tac-13 shotgun
Is the Remington TAC-13 legal?
Legality depends on your location. Federally, the TAC-13 is classified as an NFA-compliant firearm rather than a shotgun, since it lacks a stock, so the 18-inch barrel minimum does not apply. State laws vary. California users have debated whether it is actually legal there. Always check local laws before purchasing.
What is the Remington TAC-13?
The Remington TAC-13 is a compact 12-gauge shotgun with a birdshead pistol grip and a 13-inch barrel, classified as a firearm. It is available in pump-action and semi-automatic versions retailing around $800–$1,100.
How many shells does a Remington V3 hold?
The V3 Tactical holds 5 rounds total: 4 in the magazine tube plus 1 in the chamber. It accepts 2¾-inch and 3-inch shells.
Can you modify a Remington Tac-13?
Yes, owners commonly modify the Tac-13. Popular upgrades include adjusting the handstrap, swapping grips, and tuning the gas system for different shell loads. Converting it to a short-barreled shotgun requires federal ATF approval via Form 1. Always verify local laws before modifying.
What are the pros and cons of the TAC 13?
Pros: Remington's dual-piston gas system delivers consistent reliability and smooth cycling with minimal recoil. Compact design suits tactical use and home defense. Internal spring positioning enables the bird's head grip without major redesign. Cons: Limited aftermarket support compared to pump shotguns. Higher recoil than longer-barreled models. Pricing typically around $1,100.
Is the Remington TAC 13 still made?
The V3 TAC-13 does not appear to be in active production. Since Remington's acquisition, no new units have been manufactured, and it is widely considered discontinued. You may still find remaining stock through some retailers, but new production units are not available.
