TOZ-87 semi-automatic shotgun - 12 gauge

TOZ-87 is a Soviet/Russian semi-auto shotgun. It was designed in 1978 as the "MTs 24-12"; but serial production was started only in 1990, already under the index "TOZ-87". Despite the very high visual similarity with the MTs 21-12, the TOZ-87 mechanism design is completely different. The "Cruiser" version, TOZ-187, was also produced. It is distinguished by the factory Pistol grip (with the possibility of attaching a folding stock) and shorter barrel.

The TOZ-94, a pump-action version of the TOZ-87, was developed in 1994.

Starting in 2005, the TOZ-87 has been replaced by a modernized TOZ-88.

Note: The MTs 21-12 and the TOZ-87 are nearly identical from a distance. The main difference is the presence of a safety selector on the gun's right side, which is on the MTs-21, and missing on the TOZ-87.
