Thanks for the review! I recently ordered several single-shot shotguns for various bug-out/survival kits. Yildiz TK12, Legacy Sports International Pointer, IO Pardus SB, Stevens 301, Midland Backpack, Henry H015-12, NEF Pardner (used via Gunbroker) and the Rock Island Armory Derya Tradition. The Rock Island Armory Derya Tradition is actually one of my favorites. Only one of the RIA's arrived as depicted (internal hammer with crossbolt safety) in this video. All of the others had external hammers, no manual safety, vent rib barrel, a small orange "rear sight" that can be adjusted for windage and elevation and panels on the buttstock to adjust the length of pull if desired. Slightly different that the actual firearm pictured, but I was overall satisfied with the quality of all firearms upon inspection. I emailed Armscor and they said that this was the "new" version of the TK103 with "improved features". They also stated that the choke is a cylinder bore with an outside threaded muzzle brake. The pictures on their site and gun sales sites are not up to date. The shotguns come equipped with a front and rear sling swivel stud, ready to accept any standard swivels/slings. Many don't quite understand the simplicity, reliability and versatility of these firearms. With sub-caliber adapters, one can fire 10+ different common calibers through one firearm. gunadapters.com The 8" rifled adapters are accurate. They perform and chronograph very well... Standard 9mm fires over 1300fps and is offhand accurate at 120+ yards... 209 primer adapters are available as well, which allows a single shot shotgun to be used as a black powder/muzzle loading firearm. Add a sling, buttstock shell holder and good ammunition and you have a very versatile tool that can take anything from bird to bear... and can also be used very effectively for defensive purposes if required... (I prefer the 7 round buttstock shell holders from Tactical Tailor or a cheaper version is the OneTigris 7 Round Tactical Shotgun Stock Shell Holder. Both are available online...) Stay safe!
I have the ROCK island armory Model TK113 12 gauge single shot shotgun it has vented barrel comes with 3 chokes, it can also take 3 inch shells , paid new $112 great shooting shotgun, fun but it kicks like a MISSOURI mule.
I emailed Armsor. There was some controversy about the choke this particular firearm on a firearms sales site. The Armscor representative stated that these (RIA Derya Tradition TK103 Single Shot Shotguns) are equipped with a cylinder bore choke with an outside threaded muzzle brake.
I just bought the 20 Ga, No muzzle brake, black synthetic stock, and adjustable sight.. $109 @Rural King. Kicks like mule, but to be expected from such a light gun. A fun and functional gun to throw on my 4 wheeler.
Excellent shotgun. Mini shells are great for smooth recoil. This firearm will handle anything. Tough, accurate!!

Out of all your guns that you have posted, I like the RIA the best of all.
I have the midland arms backpacker love it with mini shells and have adapters for it 9mm ,22 wmr for it
I don't see this on their website, did they discontinue the muzzle break model ?
Mine has a rear sight as well, came with three chokes, but no muzzle break!!
I have been eye balling one of these at the store. I'm trying to find out if these ones have screw in chokes like the other ones with polymer stocks
it came with the screw in choke muzzle brake
