Overview
The American Tactical Cavalry 3B is an unusual triple-barrel break-action 12-gauge shotgun introduced in 2026. Its three barrels are arranged in a triangular cluster and fire in a fixed preset sequence (lower-right, then left, then top) from a single trigger, giving three quick shots without the complexity of a semi-automatic. It features 3.5-inch magnum chambers, five interchangeable choke tubes, a scroll-engraved receiver offered in black or silver, walnut furniture, and a green fiber-optic front sight.

Notes
Break-action with no magazine; the three barrels provide three ready chambers. Imported by American Tactical, almost certainly Turkish-made like the rest of the Cavalry line. Often misspelled 'Calvary 3B' in press releases.
Background
Triple-barrel shotguns are genuinely rare, historically appearing as European drilling-style heirloom guns; unlike a true drilling that mixes shotgun and rifle barrels, the Cavalry 3B is a pure triple-12-gauge whose fixed lower-right, left, top firing order is engineered to keep recoil and point of impact predictable across its triangular barrel layout.
