The Smith & Wesson M&P 12 is a 12-gauge pump-action bullpup shotgun featuring dual independent 7-round tubular magazines that provide a combined capacity of 14+1 rounds, all in a compact 27.8-inch overall package. The user manually selects between the two magazine tubes using a rotating selector, allowing different ammunition types to be loaded in each magazine for rapid tactical transitions. Built with a polymer chassis and an AR-style grip and safety selector, the M&P 12 is fully ambidextrous thanks to its downward ejection port. It represents Smith & Wesson's entry into the bullpup shotgun market directly competing with the Kel-Tec KSG, and has been adopted by several law enforcement tactical units.
