IWI Mafteah 12 GA 14" 5rd Shotgun

The IWI Mafteah takes its name from the Hebrew word for key, and it was built with opening doors in mind. It is a compact 12 gauge semi auto with a 14 inch smooth bore barrel with a vent rib and a 3 inch chamber, wrapped in a birdshead pistol grip instead of a shoulder stock. Overall length is 27.75 inches. Rather than a gas system, it runs on recoil operation with the recoil spring wound around the magazine tube, which keeps the gun short and simple.

The fixed tube magazine holds five 2.75 inch shells or four 3 inch shells. The handguard has M-LOK slots for a light or a hand stop, and the receiver is tapped for MOS optics plates or a 1913 rail if you want to add a red dot. The charging handle is reversible and the safety is a cross block. There are no sights, so plan on adding an optic. For a vehicle gun, a home defense gun that is easy to move through hallways, or a fun range gun that is very different from the usual pump, the Mafteah brings semi auto speed to a very small 12 gauge.
