2 years agoThis shotgun has failed to feed with several different types of shells including 00 9 pellet buck. I thought it might just need to be cleaned, so I went to the manual for disassembly instructions which are completely wrong. First the instructions say to remove the pins holding the trigger assembly in place. That was fixable, but unneeded for cleaning. Then at the end user is instructed to remove the barrel locking nut in order to separate the action assembly. The barrel locking nut will not

2 years agoCleaned entire shotgun and lubed on receipt as it was filled with machining chips and dirt. Sent 50 shells through it with nearly all being loading jams and failure to eject, or it tries to strip off 2 shells into the chamber causing nose deformity on next shell with subsequent FTL. This is going to need a lot of break in, and/or gunsmithing to make it work right. Third party mags can cause misfeeds due to binding if your wrist is touching the magazine at all. Drum mag fits perfectly, but has

2 years agoPurchased a few months ago. Finally got to fire it. Loaded up #4 buck shot 1 1/8 load, 27 grains powder, winchester primer. 1275 fps. Moderate kick but the other end was hell fire and brimstone. First rounds through it were rapid fire 5 shot magazine. If you were on the bad end of this shot gun I hope you have made things right with the Lord. I had one shell misfire. I put it in again and it fired. Dont know where that came from but the misfire cleared in short order. I can't wait until I get some 00 buck shot loads. Excellent close range protection weapon.

1 year agoI've bought this gun, not from here but from my local gun store and I haven't ran into any problems with. Of course I've only been firing one type of ammo. Estate 12G OO buck so maybe it just does really well with that ammo in particular. All around I think it's a great gun and looks amazing.

1 year agoThis Bulpup is absolutely awesome if you feed it powerful ammo. I bought one and love it one thing is the finish is not great but makes up for it with the badassness one thing you can do is get some quality paint and dust the upper

1 year agoBought it and was nervous because bullpups seem hit or miss. This is one of the good ones though. Also it’s compatible with the RIA extended mags and drum. Only put about 30-50 rounds through it, but used the factory 5 round and RIAs 9 and it has surpassed my expectations.

1 year agoFinally got to run this at the range today. Seriously one of the most fun guns I've ever shot. Cycles great and the bull-pup platform makes it very manageable to run slugs all day. I can totally see this being a first pick for home defense for anyone. Oh and for those looking to buy 10rd mags, the ones that work for the Panzer BP-12 run perfectly in this.

1 year agoThis was suppose to include 2 clips and one was missing!!! It also was completely vague about the rack handle being installed on either side and there were no instructions on what to do ! I had to go to a local gun store and pay them to install. If I don’t receive a second clip I may never buy from y’all again!!!

1 year agoThe 912 ran well on heavy loads. Not so much on lighter loads. Easy to handle and run. Overall it will get the job done. 3 and 1/2 stars.

1 year agoThis gun is solid and has worked well the small amount of time I have used it. A good price but that should make you a little suspect. I have had trouble with the clip sticking making it sometimes very hard to take out. Any gun issues must go to the maker and can be a job to get information since it is made in Turkey I believe. There is contact in US but I have not tried the number yet. Anyway the clip is getting a little more loose after some rounds through it, but still sticks

1 year agoRuns like a Bat Out of Hell. Heavy load piston doesn`t cycle anything at all Light load piston cycles everything? Started with a scowl ran 30rds one at a time changed pistons and turned my frown upside down.

1 year agoI love the weapon but the customer service is terrible at palemetto state armory. They never respond and I have been trying to get ahold of them to help me out with me not getting my wrenches to disassemble my bullpup and the instruction manual

1 year agoSolid as a rock. If you are looking for a shotgun to carry for extended periods, this isn't it. But if you are looking for a solid quality shotgun, this is it! It's a beautifully made weapon for the price!

1 year agoBought two because of the price. Out of the box It didn’t like the light loads but loved the heavy loads. Put a cheap red dot on it. It didn’t like it either. Put in a heavier scope with laser. Zerod easy and slugs hit zero everytime. We have the AR style shotguns and Remington 1100 Everyone shooting loved the bull pups. Magazine is a task to load (no speed loading there) but going to gun show to buy more mags. I’ve been pushing the others to buy some of the pups. You won’t go wrong.

Just a dude…
1 year agoI'm not an expert, but I'm not stupid. Super disappointed in this gun. Out of the box using black aces 00, 2 3/4", 1425FPS, 1 1/5oz shells, the gun fires once, reloads and will not fire the next round. Appears that it is not fully pushing back the bolt to reset the hammer. cleaning and adding lube to make sure everything is functioning well and try again and still same issue, now adding that it will not fully eject jamming mid-ejection of the shell, making it impossible to reload and re-fire.

1 year agoI read all the reviews on quite a few websites. And I figured there are always people bound to have issues. So, I decided to 'pull the trigger' (pun intended) and ordered a BA912. After a thorough inspection, I oiled her up (noticed workings were bone dry) and loaded a mag with a very light load 2 3/4", 7/8, #7. As expected she did not fully cycle. But it seemed like the more I manually cycled her and shot, the closer she got to a full cycle. So, I dumped (2) 9 round mags of 00 through

1 year agoWorked like a charm at its 1st range day. I ran several different ammo brands through it, from Federal, Black Aces and Winchester. Weather is was slug or buck I had no issues. My Dad ran in to an issue with his SDS bullpup but it turns out it was a bad magazine. We learned that all of our bullpups magazines were interchangeable. Best Arms to SDS to Black Aces. Home this was useful to someone too.

1 year agoOnce it’s broke in it’s a great shot gun. But you’ll have to break it in with large brass shotgun rounds. I would say about 50 rounds of high brass before it will cycle the smaller brass rounds. It’s my home defense set up. Picatinny rails allow for a red dot and flash light on the side.
Bruce P
1 year agoVery impressed with the balance and weight distribution of this weapon. Recoil with 9 pellet 00 Buckshot was very manageable. Can't wait to try my new Promag 20 round drum on it
