The TOZ-106 is a small, lightweight bolt-action shotgun produced and sold by Tulsky Oruzheiny Zavod.
== Design == This is a compact version of Soviet MTs 20-01 hunting shotgun. It features a metal stock that folds underneath the weapon in order to make it more compact, and a pistol grip. The rest of the stock is wooden. This shotgun was officially marketed as a hunting shotgun, but became popular among farmers, adventurers, travelers, campers, truck drivers and other people who needed a self-defense weapon for use in the countryside or wilderness. Illegal sawn-off versions of Soviet shotguns historically earned the name "Death of a collective farm chairman" (rus."Смерть председателя") hinting at their possible use, and TOZ-106 naturally inherited the name. It received an indifferent welcome among hunters, though it is somewhat popular for finishing wounded game.
