Key features and tactical advantages

AR-style ergonomics for faster transitions

The G FORCE ARMS GF-99-DLX uses AR-15 style ergonomics—controls and balance that many shooters already know. That translates to reduced training time, quicker target transitions, and confident manipulation under stress. The standard adjustable sight set ensures you can dial in a point-of-aim for home-defense distances or patterning at the range.

Reliable feeding: AR-12 pattern detachable magazine

One of the GF-99-DLX’s most practical features is its AR-12 pattern detachable box magazine. Magazine-fed shotguns make reloading faster and more consistent than tubular-fed options during rapid drills or dynamic defensive scenarios. For plinking or hunting, quick reloads mean more time on target and less time fumbling with tools.

Barrel, chamber, and ammunition flexibility

With a 20″ barrel and a 3″ chamber, the G FORCE ARMS GF-99-DLX handles a wide variety of 12 gauge loads—from light target loads for practice to heavier defensive or hunting loads. The 12 gauge provides excellent terminal performance and versatility across applications: home-defense, plinking, and even small- to medium-game hunting when legal and appropriate.

Handling, maintenance, and value

Field-stripping an AR-pattern shotgun is familiar to many users, and routine maintenance on the GF-99-DLX is straightforward. At a retail price of $291.99, it offers a competitive entry point for shooters seeking a semi-auto 12 gauge with modern ergonomics and magazine-fed convenience. View product details and pricing
