Ok well technically one is a shotgun and the other is simply a firearm. But they both shoot shotgun shells. Both are fun to shoot but I have to give a bit of a nod to the KSG. The bullpup configuration keeps the OAL short. So short it almost feels like it should be NFA [Read More…]
Raniero Testa broke his own record of shooting multiple clay pigeon targets while they are in the air. You may have seen such trick shots before, where the shooter throws a stack of clay targets into the air and shoots each of them separately before they land. Raniero [Read More…]

Before I was assigned to review the Comrade Arms TAK-47, I had never considered owning an AK-based shotgun, nor did I ever expect to review one designed in New Zealand! Sure, I’ve seen the professional competitors with their tricked out Saiga 12’s, running [Read More…]

Jim of Burst Review got a Cobray Terminator to shoot from his friend Lee Cap. For those not familiar with the Cobray Terminator, it has been touted as the world’s worst shotgun. At first glance it looks like a modified Sterling SMG. However it is chambered in [Read More…]
Practical or not, short-barreled sawed off shotguns are nothing if not cool. Two short, big bores on a frame with nothing but a pistol grip says “bad***” like little else. Well, they are cool, except when they’re not! So runs the gag in the 2012 crime [Read More…]
Savage Arms now offers A Grade versions of the once famous high-end Fox shotguns. Savage makes these shotguns in 12 or 20 gauge. Both caliber options also come with either 26″ or 28″ barrels and only with side by side layout of the barrels. Ansley Fox was [Read More…]

Those who have been following my weapons choices for competition will likely remember that I am an avid fan of the Beretta 1301. Previously, they sent me a “tactical” model for review, which I liked so much that I immediately sold my Mossberg 590 (shout out [Read More…]

At first glance, it is extremely difficult to tell the Remington 870 apart from the Mossberg 590 Shockwave. If the two were laid side-by-side on a gun bench, it would be tough to tell which is which from a distance. Their qualities and features overlap quite a bit, [Read More…]
With the NRA Annual Meetings going on, all of us expect a slew of new firearms to be announced and debuted, but few people could have guessed that Remington had, for a lack of a better phrase, a “loophole firearm” up their sleeves. The announcement of a [Read More…]
At the NRA Annual Meeting something caught my eye at the UTAS booth. I will be honest I am not a fan of the UTS-15 when it comes to bullpup shotguns. However UTAS has something relatively new that I missed at SHOT Show last January. It is their XTR-12. It is an AR [Read More…]
