Key Features

• Break-Action Takedown Design — Why it matters: You can separate the barrel from the receiver in seconds using the AR-style pin, making it easy to pack in a backpack or store in a vehicle without a long gun case.
• .357 Mag / .410 Over/Under Combo — Why it matters: One trigger pull gives you the stopping power of a .357 Magnum or the spread of a .410 shotshell, so you can handle varmints, snakes, or small game without switching guns.
• Integrated Shell Storage in Stock — Why it matters: You can carry extra rounds right on the gun, so you don’t have to fumble for loose ammo when you need a quick reload in the field.
• 18.25″ Barrel with Full Choke — Why it matters: The shorter barrel keeps the gun handy and maneuverable, while the full choke tube (included) tightens your .410 pattern for better accuracy at moderate ranges.
• Synthetic Field Stock — Why it matters: It’s weatherproof and lightweight, so you don’t worry about scratches, rain, or dings when you’re out hunting or riding an ATV.

Who It’s For

This TPS Arms M6 is built for shooters who want one compact firearm that does double duty. It’s perfect for truck guns, survival kits, and campers who need a reliable .357 Mag revolver companion that also fires .410 shells. It also fits new gun owners looking for a simple, easy-to-maintain break-action without the complexity of a semi-auto. If you spend time on a farm, ranch, or off-road, this takedown combo is a solid choice.

Pros and Cons

• Pros: Fast takedown for storage, two calibers in one gun, synthetic stock shrugs off weather, includes choke tube and wrench, extra ammo in the stock.
• Cons: The break-action means a single shot before reloading — not ideal for rapid follow-up shots. The .410 pattern with a full choke can be tight for close-range bird hunting.

Frequently Asked Questions

What kind of .410 shells does this gun take?

It fires standard 2.5-inch .410 bore shotshells. Do not use 3-inch magnum shells, as the chamber is not rated for them.

Can I use .38 Special in the .357 Magnum barrel?

Yes, you can safely shoot .38 Special ammunition in the .357 Magnum chamber. Just be aware that accuracy may vary slightly due to the longer chamber.

How do I take down the TPS Arms M6 for storage?

Open the action, then push out the AR-style takedown pin located at the hinge. The barrel and forearm will separate from the receiver. It takes about 10 seconds once you get the hang of it.

Is this gun legal for hunting in most states?

Check your local regulations. The .357 Mag is legal for deer in many states with straight-wall cartridge laws, and the .410 bore is fine for small game. The 18.25″ barrel meets minimum length requirements in most jurisdictions.

Does the stock hold any extra shells?

Yes, the synthetic stock has a compartment that holds up to four spare .410 or .357 rounds. A small button releases the buttplate for access.
