The DP-12 Gen II is a double-barrel pump shotgun: two 18.75-inch barrels side by side, fed by twin internal magazines that hold 14 rounds with two more in the chambers for 16 total. Every stroke of the pump sets up two shots, one per barrel. Both barrels take 2.75 and 3-inch shells and are threaded in the Tru-Choke pattern, with spreader tubes included. The receiver is machined 7075 aluminum under a thermal-coated finish; overall length is 29.5 inches and weight is 9 pounds.
A spring-loaded recoil system and a rubber pad work against 12 gauge recoil, and the 9-pound weight helps too. Safety and slide release are both ambidextrous. Picatinny rails run top and bottom with extra mounting slots, so an optic goes on the top rail and a light underneath. Standard Manufacturing positions this as a tactical gun, and the layout shows it: short overall length, high capacity and two shots per stroke.
