The TOZ-28 (ТОЗ-28) is a Soviet hunting combination gun.[1][3][2]
History
The gun was designed by G. P. Chetverikova (Г. П. Четверикова) in early 1960s.[2]
Since 1963 began the production of this shotgun by Tula Arms Plant.[3][2] In 1964 it was shown at VDNKh exhibition in Moscow.[4]
On December 13, 1996, president of the Russian Federation B. N. Yeltsin signed the federal law № 150, which entered into force on July 1, 1997. In accordance with this law, possession of civilian firearms chambered for handgun ammunition was prohibited.[5] As a result, since July 1, 1997, all TOZ-28 guns were banned on the territory of the Russian Federation and they had to be handed over to governmental law enforcement agencies for destruction.
Design
TOZ-28 is a combination gun, with one rifled barrel under two other.[1][2]
- smoothbore barrels are chambered for standard 20/70 mm R shotgun shells.[3][2]
- a rifled barrel was chambered for 7.62×38mmR round[1][2] or special 6.5×38mmR round[3][2]
It is equipped with extractor.[2]
All guns have a birch shoulder stock (with or without cheekpiece) and fore-end.[1][3][2]
