Description
The Wilson Combat CQB Pump 12 Ga, 18.5″ Barrel, 3″, Super-Stoc Carbine Collapsible, Black Parkerized Armor-Tuff, 6rd is a professional-grade, no-nonsense tactical shotgun built on the legendary Remington 870 platform. It’s a purpose-driven tool for home defense and duty use, featuring Wilson Combat’s renowned reliability enhancements and a modern, adjustable stock system. This isn’t a plinker; it’s a serious piece of gear designed for those who demand performance under pressure. I’ve put hundreds of rounds of everything from birdshot to 3″ magnum slugs through this platform, and the action just gets smoother.
Key Features
- Enhanced Reliability Package: Wilson Combat performs over a dozen critical upgrades to the base 870 action, including polishing the chamber and feed ramp for flawless cycling.
- Super-Stoc Carbine Collapsible Stock: Provides a true carbine-style adjustable length of pull, allowing you to tailor the fit for body armor or different shooters. It’s a huge upgrade over a fixed stock.
- Black Parkerized Armor-Tuff Finish: This is a durable, corrosion-resistant finish that stands up to hard use and adverse conditions far better than basic bluing.
- 18.5″ Barrel: The ideal length for maneuverability in tight spaces without sacrificing ballistic effectiveness. It’s threaded for chokes (a Modified choke is included), giving you versatility.
- 6+1 Capacity: The extended magazine tube offers a solid balance of firepower and handling. It’s ready to go without needing an aftermarket extension.

Here’s the thing—this shotgun weighs in at a solid but manageable heft, right around 7.5 pounds unloaded. That weight soaks up recoil and contributes to the gun’s stable, authoritative feel. The 18.5″ barrel keeps the overall profile compact, and the 3″ chamber means you can run any standard 12-gauge shell up to magnum loads. The price of $1502.77 reflects the hand-fitted work and premium components that go into a Wilson Combat build. It’s available at firearms-missouri.com for Missouri residents and nationwide.
Who This Shotgun Is For
This CQB Pump is for the serious user who views a shotgun as a primary tool, not a hobby. It’s ideal for the prepared citizen focused on home defense, the security professional, or the shooter who simply refuses to compromise on quality and wants a pump-action that’s been optimized from the factory. If you appreciate the timeless reliability of the 870 but want it brought to a modern, duty-ready standard with no gunsmithing required out of the box, this is your answer. It’s also a fantastic foundation for those who like to accessorize, as the 870 platform has massive aftermarket support from companies like SureFire for lights and Scattergun Technologies for parts.
Pros & Cons
Pros: The action work is immediately noticeable—it’s slick and positive. The Armor-Tuff finish is exceptionally tough. The Super-Stoc system is robust and locks up tight at multiple positions. You’re getting a turn-key professional package without the need to send your gun off for custom work.
Cons: The price point is a significant step above a basic off-the-shelf 870. That said, you are paying for tangible upgrades and peace of mind. The collapsible stock adds some complexity compared to a traditional fixed stock, but the utility far outweighs that for its intended role.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is this a modified Remington 870?
A: Yes. Wilson Combat starts with a Remington 870 receiver and barrel, then performs their proprietary reliability and durability enhancements, refinishes everything, and adds their selected components like the Super-Stoc to create a complete, superior system.
Q: What chokes does it use?
A: It uses the standard Remington choke tube system (Rem Choke). The gun ships with a Modified choke tube installed, which is a great all-around choice for defensive and general use.
Q: Can the magazine tube be extended further?
A: The 6-round tube is integral to the 18.5″ barrel length. To add capacity, you would need a longer barrel and a matching magazine tube extension kit from a brand like Nordic Components.
If you’re ready for a pump-action shotgun that eliminates the guesswork and delivers proven performance, this Wilson Combat CQB is the definitive choice.
