Armored Boar Gunworks is the trusted firearms and ammunition dealer in Chilton, Texas, and serves customers in the nearby cities of Waco, Temple, Cameron, Hewitt, and the surrounding Central Texas area. All pump action shotgun purchases at Armored Boar Gunworks are conducted in full compliance with federal and Texas state law, including ATF Form 4473 and a NICS background check for every firearm sale. Texas follows all applicable federal regulations governing the purchase and transfer of firearms and related products.
Buyers must be at least 18 years of age to purchase a shotgun from a licensed dealer under federal law and must meet all applicable state and federal eligibility requirements. Texas imposes no state-level waiting period beyond the federal background check process. Texas enacted constitutional carry in 2021, meaning law-abiding residents who are legally permitted to possess a firearm may carry it openly or concealed without a state-issued permit. Short-barreled shotguns with a barrel under 18 inches or an overall length under 26 inches are regulated under the National Firearms Act and require ATF registration, a $200 tax stamp, and approval prior to transfer. Armored Boar Gunworks can assist customers through the NFA process for any regulated pump action configurations.
Texas hunters using pump action shotguns should consult the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department for current regulations on legal shot types, gauges, and loads for dove, quail, turkey, and waterfowl seasons. Lead shot is legal for upland game and dove hunting in Texas, while federal law requires non-toxic shot for all migratory waterfowl hunting statewide. Central Texas dove season is one of the most anticipated hunting traditions in the region, and the pump action remains one of the most popular platforms for Texas bird hunters. Contact Armored Boar Gunworks for help selecting the right pump action shotgun, choke, or load for your next Texas hunt or home defense setup.

Pump action shotguns are favored for their mechanical simplicity and ability to reliably cycle virtually any load, from light target shells to heavy 3-inch magnum rounds, without the feeding sensitivity that can affect some semi-automatic platforms. They require less maintenance, are generally more affordable, and deliver a long service life under hard Texas field use. The manual cycling action gives the shooter direct control over the chamber at all times, which many Texas hunters and home defenders prefer for its simplicity and dependability in any condition.
For Texas dove season, a 12 or 20 gauge pump action with a 26- to 28-inch barrel and an improved cylinder or modified choke is the standard configuration. Pump actions are popular for dove hunting due to their load versatility and reliability across a full day in the field. Lead shot is legal for dove hunting in Texas. Always check current Texas Parks and Wildlife Department season dates and bag limits, and confirm your specific property or lease rules before heading afield.
A 12 gauge pump action with an 18- to 20-inch barrel is the classic home defense shotgun configuration, offering a proven combination of reliability, stopping power, and straightforward operation. Cylinder-bore or improved cylinder barrels paired with quality buckshot loads are the standard recommendation for home defense use. Reduced-recoil buckshot options are available for those who prefer lower felt recoil. The staff at Armored Boar Gunworks can help you select and configure the right pump action for your home defense needs.
For Texas turkey hunting, a 12 gauge pump action with a tight extra-full or dedicated turkey choke and 3- to 3.5-inch magnum loads is the standard recommendation. Tight patterns at extended ranges are critical for ethical turkey kills, and a dedicated turkey choke delivers significantly better pattern density than a standard full choke. Camouflage finishes and shorter barrels are popular among Texas turkey hunters who need to stay concealed and maneuver through dense brush. Always verify current Texas Parks and Wildlife Department regulations before your hunt.
Short-barreled shotguns with a barrel under 18 inches or an overall length under 26 inches are regulated under the National Firearms Act. They are legal to own in Texas for eligible residents but require ATF registration, a $200 tax stamp, and approval before taking possession. The process typically takes several months. Armored Boar Gunworks can guide customers through the NFA transfer process for any short-barreled pump action configurations they are interested in.
Choke selection should match your shot size and target distance. For Texas dove and quail at typical field distances, an improved cylinder or modified choke opens the pattern for effective coverage on fast-moving birds. For turkey hunting, use a tight extra-full or dedicated turkey choke for dense patterns at extended ranges. For waterfowl, always use a choke rated for steel shot, typically improved cylinder or modified, to avoid barrel damage. The staff at Armored Boar Gunworks can help you select the right choke for your specific pump action and hunting application.
