What’s Included
- Weatherby PA-459 TR 12 Gauge pump-action shotgun
- Installed extended ported Cylinder choke
Built for defensive use, the PA-459 TR (Threat Response) pairs an 18.5-inch chrome-lined steel barrel without porting and a removable extended ported Cylinder choke. It is chambered for both 2 3/4 in and 3 in shells, providing flexibility for a wide range of 12 gauge loads.
The sighting system is set up for fast target acquisition: an adjustable ghost-ring rear mounted on the receiver rail and a fiber-optic front blade protected by wings. An alloy receiver with an integral top Picatinny rail allows mounting of accessories, and a short accessory rail at 6 o'clock on the fore-end supports light or accessory placement.
The furniture is rugged and practical, featuring a matte black synthetic stock with an integral pistol grip, a fixed configuration with a recoil pad, and sling swivel studs. A ribbed synthetic fore-end offers positive control. The cross-bolt safety and pump-action operation keep controls familiar and straightforward, with an approximate 13.5-inch length of pull.
Capacity is a standard 4+1 in the tube (no extension). The receiver and exterior wear a matte black finish, and the shotgun is marked Made in Turkey. The PA-459 model designation references California Penal Code 459.
Key callouts: 3 in chamber and Cyl choke.
