Mac Military Armament Corp Mac 2 Semi Auto Shotguns
About this product
This listing is a Military Armament Corp MAC-2 semi-automatic 12-gauge shotgun, priced at $400. That price lines up closely with Military Armament Corp's MAC 2 Tactical Wood configuration, which the manufacturer markets with a sub-$400 MSRP and a Turkish walnut stock — a different furniture choice from the black synthetic-stocked MAC 2 Tactical. Since this listing's title doesn't specify "Tactical" or a stock material, confirm the exact configuration with our team before ordering if that detail matters to you.
What's shared across the MAC-2 shotgun family?
Every MAC-2 variant, wood-stocked or synthetic, tactical or standard, runs the same core mechanism: an inertia-driven action inspired by Benelli's design, an 18.5-inch barrel with a Melonite finish, and a 3-inch chamber capable of handling everything from light target loads to heavy magnum shells. The receiver is aluminum, drilled and tapped from the factory for an included rail section and ghost-ring-type rear sight, and the barrel threads to accept Beretta/Benelli-pattern choke tubes.
What does the wood-stocked configuration change?
Where the black synthetic "Tactical" stock leans toward a home-defense or patrol look, the Turkish walnut stock and matte black metal finish give the same mechanism a more traditional field-gun appearance — a real consideration if you want a versatile shotgun that doesn't look purpose-built for tactical use. The wood stock doesn't change the underlying action, barrel, or sight system, just the furniture and general aesthetic.
What comes included?
MAC-2 shotguns typically ship with three choke tubes — cylinder, modified, and full — along with a choke wrench, giving you the flexibility to pattern the gun differently for clays, upland birds, or home-defense buckshot without buying chokes separately. Capacity runs 5+1 in the standard tube-magazine configuration.
Is this a good all-purpose shotgun?
The combination of a 3-inch chamber, swappable chokes, and a traditional stock profile makes this a genuinely versatile 12-gauge — capable as a clays or upland gun with the right choke and light loads, and just as capable loaded with buckshot for home defense, without looking like a dedicated tactical shotgun sitting in a gun safe.
What should California buyers verify before ordering?
Confirm the specific furniture, barrel length, and magazine configuration on this listing with your FFL, and verify current California compliance before ordering — while a fixed wood stock and tube magazine generally avoid the detachable-magazine and pistol-grip triggers in California's assault weapons statute, exact configuration still matters.
As a firearm, this shotgun cannot ship to a home address. It transfers through your chosen licensed FFL dealer, where you'll complete the required background check and any state waiting period.
Why has this shotgun drawn attention in gun-press reviews?
Independent outlets covering the MAC-2 Tactical Wood have specifically called out its combination of genuine walnut furniture, factory ghost-ring-ready sighting, and a sub-$400 price as unusual value in the current shotgun market, where wood-stocked semi-autos at this price point are increasingly rare as manufacturers shift toward synthetic furniture across the board. That combination of a traditional look with modern inertia-driven reliability is a large part of the model's appeal.
FFL transfer required
This item is a firearm and ships only to a licensed FFL dealer, never to a home address. At checkout, enter your preferred dealer as the shipping address, or leave it blank and we will assign a licensed dealer near you at no extra cost. You complete the background check and paperwork with the dealer when you pick up.
California buyers: handguns must be on the California roster for delivery to a California FFL, a Firearm Safety Certificate (FSC) and DROS are handled at the dealer, and the 10-day waiting period applies. Out-of-state buyers receive the firearm through their own local FFL under their state's rules.
