The QBS-09 is a Chinese semi-automatic shotgun designed by the 208th Institute of China Ordnance Industry and used by the People's Liberation Army and People's Armed Police.

History
Designed between 2005 and 2009 by the 208th Institute of China Ordnance Industry, the QBS-09 was adopted by the People's Liberation Army in 2009, and has also been approved for use by the People's Armed Police.

Design and features
The QBS-09 uses an annular gas piston system around the magazine tube. The gas system has a manually adjusted gas regulator, with three positions: cut-off (marked “0”) for firing low energy less-lethal ammunition; standard (“1”) and “harsh environment” (“2”). Standard ammunition is steel cased DBD-09 12-gauge anti-personnel shells, though most commercial ammunition. Less-lethal ammunition can also be used with manual cycling.

The QBS-09 has rifle-type iron sights, adjustable for 50 and 100 metres. A QBZ-95 scope rail is fitted to the top of the receiver.
