1 year agoTo be fair, I didn’t actually purchase one, my friend did and I got to tag along for the unboxing and first shots. We blew through just shy of 100 rounds - at first we were having some issues with stovepipes and rechambering empty shells. The manual recommended a break in period of 1-2 boxes of shells between 1-1.5 oz. What we didn’t realize was the target loads we broke out initially we’re actually too weak to provide a consistent cycling. This was intensified by hip firing, it failed to cycle

1 year agoThis thing is awesome, I have been waiting for the Pro to come back in stock, as it is very hard to find right now. PSA had it for a great price too! Very happy. Thanks.

1 year agoNo doubt my favorite gun to shoot - I’ve struggled to get it to shoot the 2 3/4 shells consistently but it loves the heavy steel 3”. The gun is reliable, fun and the prettiest thing at the gun range. I’ve recently purchased the adaptor from FFF firearms so I can attach standard AR-15 adjustable buttstocks to this gun (the existing buttstock is rather long). I own several handguns and rifles but it’s clear that if we ever need to fight the zombie apocalypse, this is the weapon I want

1 year agoNot too bad for a Turkish gun. I was thrilled to see that it came with 3 chokes (cylinder, something, and full). I'm a lefty and I was able to reverse the safety and with some quick use of the dremel I made it selectable and engraved new "F" and "S" marks. The instructions on how to take it apart didn't really match and every YouTube video is also different. I'm still in the break-in process and expect that it should withstand standard abuse.

1 year agoWow. This thing is a must have! I've shot a lot of different types of firearms, this one stands out in a class of its own. With 3" double 00, or 2-3/4-1.5 oz steel shot, OR slugs, it's my new favorite 12. I was expecting it to be awkward, loose feeling, and heavy because of the alloy lower, but it's surprisingly very tight, solid feeling, comfortable to carry, and fire. Doesn't feel like a cheap, sloppy, fast built firearm at all. Has cycled perfectly thru hundreds of rounds with no issues at

1 year agoIf I could give it 0 stars I would. On the 9th round the bolt ceased halfway back after failing to extract a shell. Have taken it apart per the instructions and cannot fix it. Don’t waste your money no one is going to help you when it fails. I was on hold for over 45 minutes on the PSA repair line and never got in touch with anyone. Typhoon Defense or Rock Island Armory AR shot guns are much better don’t waste your money on this thing!

1 year agoVery nice gun, shot atleast 100 rounds through, has 2 jams. One jam happened on bird shot, 1150fps. You definitely need to use ammo with the right velocity to have this cycle properly. That jam was on me, the 2nd jam on a 1600fps - Foster Slug not sure what happened there, but no problems since. This rifle eats slugs, very accurate gun, I will say the kick firing the slugs is pretty intense, I bought a scope and a bipod for it. Definitely a fun gun to shoot - and a lot less recoil than my

1 year agoThis is what I wanted, and this is what I received. I am very happy with my Panzer AR-12 PRO! Palmetto State Armory delivers what they advertise! Ray

1 year agoThis rifle is good to go. Can’t give it a “Great!” because I fired it once using 2.5” 00buck under 1350fps with standard piston. Mags and drum couldn’t fire consecutively w/out a mis-feed or jam extracting. Hopefully firing more (break in) and 3” shells will function better.

1 year agoso I broke this gun in with the standard velocity piston installed( that's how it comes from the factory) I ran 40-50 rds of 3" 1 3/8 BBB(1375fps) and about 5rds of 2 3/4" 00buck high brass, the gun seems to functions much better with 3 " high brass, high velocity rds, the 2 3/4" 00buck at 1325fps is not enough to make this gun even think about cycling, 3" 1 3/8 BBB rds(1375fps) just rip right through it. so 3" ammo, high brass is the way to go, slug rds will present a problem because you

1 year agoFirst time shooting, put about 20 rounds through and the magazine eject button popped out. Could not find it on the ground. Contacted panzer to find item number. Will update review if they respond.

1 year agoBroke in with 25 1300 FPS 00buck then 25 1OZ slugs, not one hiccup! This gun operated flawlessly. This was with the standard model. Just received the PRO GEN 2 and hoping this one performs the same. Will let you know.

1 year agoAs long as I run 1300+ FPS ammo this beauty barked every time with no issues. I purchased the Pro thinking it would be much sturdier than the regular AR12, definitely got what I asked for but it’s extremely heavy in comparison to the regular model. So as a minimal buyer beware, the Pro is heavy. The regular model is definitely the way to go
David R
1 year agoIt's a handful of fire power. No misfeeds and no jams. Runs flawless using oo Buckshot at 1400fps during break-in, 175 rounds. After break-in you have to take it apart and change out/switch the gas cam, I think that's what it's called. Anyway, the extra gas cam comes with the gun. I haven't done it yet but I've read the manual and it's no big deal. Be sure not to exceed 1500fps on the ammo or it will damage the gas system.
