Details
The GEN-12 18″ is the full-length, non-NFA member of the family: 18″ barrel (34″ overall), chambered for 2¾” and 3″ 12 gauge shells, external choke (M22x0.75 thread), right-side charging knob and the Adaptive Tactical adjustable stock.
The GEN-12 is Genesis Arms’ magazine-fed, short-recoil 12 gauge built on a GEN1 DPMS .308-pattern lower, with a free-float handguard (M-LOK at 3, 6 and 9 o’clock, full-length Picatinny top rail), mil-spec buffer tube with a 3.8 oz .308 short-carbine buffer, Hogue rubberized grip and a mil-spec AR trigger. It runs low-brass and high-brass loads alike from Genesis’s proprietary GEN-12 magazines.
Includes a 5-round magazine, soft case and Genesis Arms limited warranty.
Optional factory-installed optic: EOTech EXPS3-1 Tan holographic weapon sight. Single 1 MOA dot reticle for true two-eyes-open shooting, 20 daylight and 10 night-vision brightness settings, side buttons, and a quick-detach lever on a 7 mm raised base for lower-1/3 co-witness. Runs about 1,000 hours on one CR123 battery. Made in the USA by EOTech; mounted by Genesis before the gun ships.
Ships to your FFL dealer.
Lead time: about 3 weeks for black, about 6 weeks for FDE (Cerakote). Built to order by Genesis Arms.
Shipping & FFL
Firearms are shipped only to a Federal Firearms Licensee. We must have a signed copy of the receiving dealer's license on file before shipment. Once the firearm arrives, you complete ATF Form 4473 and a NICS background check with that dealer. Transfer fees are set by, and paid to, the receiving dealer.
All firearm sales are final. Inspect the firearm at your dealer before completing the transfer — once it has transferred to you on a Form 4473 it cannot be returned to us. Defects are handled under the manufacturer's warranty.
It is the buyer's responsibility to know and follow the laws in their jurisdiction. Orders to restricted destinations will be cancelled.
