About
What it is, and why it matters
The ATA CY is a gas-operated semi-automatic shotgun manufactured by the Turkish firearms maker ATA Silah Sanayi (ATA Arms). Chambered most commonly in 12 gauge with a 3-inch chamber (a 3.5-inch Super Magnum version is also offered), it feeds from a tubular magazine and cycles a self-regulating gas system that handles both 2.75-inch and 3-inch loads. Sold in barrel lengths of 24, 26 and 28 inches with a ventilated rib, interchangeable choke tubes and a chrome-lined bore, the CY is offered with Turkish walnut, synthetic and camouflage furniture as an affordable hunting and clay-target autoloader.
ATA Arms is one of Turkey's largest shotgun exporters, building autoloaders both under its own name and as an OEM for several Western brands; the CY is its no-frills gas-operated hunting autoloader positioned below the inertia-driven Neo.
Marketed as a simple, trouble-free gas-operated autoloader. Configurations vary by market: standard 3-inch models typically carry a 4-round magazine, while 3.5-inch Super Magnum versions are advertised at 5+1. A representative Super Magnum listing shows a 28-inch barrel, 14.17-inch length of pull and roughly 7.28 lb weight; figures here reflect a typical 12-gauge 28-inch configuration and may vary by variant.

No load solved for this record yetThe flight path is computed from a cartridge and a bullet. This record has no ammunition filed against its chambering, so there is nothing to solve.
