The right side of the barrel is stamped Cobra III 12ga 3 Inch and Made in Turkey by Kral, while the left side is marked Tristar-NKC-MO.

Condition report:
The shotgun is in good used condition. The matte black finish on the barrel and receiver is well-preserved, showing only minor surface dust and light handling marks consistent with moderate use. The bore is bright and appears well-maintained. The pump action cycles smoothly, and the bolt appears to lock and unlock correctly, although the firearm has not been function-tested with live ammunition. The synthetic furniture is structurally sound with no cracks and maintains sharp texturing on the grip areas.
