Turkish Semi Auto Shotguns

I recently purchased an Escort BTS12 Bullpup Semi-Auto 12 ga. made by Hatsan. I took one of my 5 rnd. clips over to my local gun shop. It would not fit into any of the other Turkish guns that they had there. Looked the same to me. Any Ideas or a database anywhere? TY

    Although all of the Turkish magazines look alike, they have subtle differences which make them far from interchangeable. RIA IMPORTS - VR SERIES magazines "should be compatible" with your Escort, but no assurances are given. Good luck.

    Yeah, as Mark mentioned, all those Turkish type clones can be hit or miss on interchangability and in function. There is a clone of the Benelli M4 and a few people have reported a few parts interchange, but not a lot. At least on those clones, everyone I know says save the money for the real thing so you know it will work. Your mileage may vary.
