History

In January 2018, the TS12, which was the first bullpup shotgun developed by IWI, was revealed at SHOT Show, and released on the market the same year.

The TS12 loads its shells into three magazine tubes, each of which contain a total of five shells, allowing for a maximum of 15 + 1 shells. The tubes can be rotated via a button on the pistol grip.
