This thing is unbelievable! The fit and finish is great, the sights super sweet and it cycles my OO buckshot easily, with no failures yet. I got mine for less than $300 from Buds!

Have not fired shotgun but it seems fine

Amazing value! Guys and Gals, the recoil spring does have a preferred end ... one end is much tighter than the other, so check to make sure the tight end is against the receiver not the piston assembly. Clean the gun thoroughly before first shoot: use fine steel wool on the mag tube external and grease it with CLP, clean the piston inside with steel wool and grease it with CLP, then replace the o-ring with a certified Remington coated o-ring and shoot the daylights out of it with hi-brass pheasant loads. Great gun! I added five inches to the mag tube with an extension (now a 6+ 1 capacity) and replaced the 'tissue sample' choke with an IC flush mount (gun is now 37 inches and swings so easily). I also cut the stock down so the pull is only 12.5 with a limb saver attached. Replaced the follower with a USA made part also, for gov regs issues. Folks, this is one of the great bargains typical for Bud's.

Real happy with this. Took it apart, oiled it up, and put on a scope and rifled choke tube and it shoots 2-3 inch groups at 100 yards with Brenneke KOs.

Took this gun shooting for the first time only put 25 rounds through it, just to see how it was. It was shooting excellent! Second time I went shooting with it loaded it and went to shoot, I shot and the bullet didn't discharge. So I took off the foregrip and it looked like I blew an o ring for the gas piston. I was pretty upset being I haven't even put A descent amount of rounds through it yet.

Well....With this product you get what you pay for, like most things. Is not a bad shotgun, but for people that have Mossberg, Remington or Benelli this shotgun will be well under your standard. I have a Benelli M4 and a Mossberg 500, and I saw videos and read a few reviews saying this shotgun was similar to the Benelli M4...after messing with it and shooting it: the quality, craftsmanship and performance are not even close. Also it seems to only cycle using 1400 fps ammo. Overall if youre looking for a first or second shotgun save a bit more and get a Mossberg 500 pump. Dont buy this shotgun if its going to be your first line of defense. Good luck!

Buds price on this semi auto shot gun is great. Put about 40 shells through it today and worked perfect. I may need to buy another one because its such a good deal.

Nicely equipped gas operated tactical 12 gauge shot gun with good sights, base to mount dot sight or scope, door breacher is replaceable with beretta/benelli choke tubes. Trigger pull very good for a shotgun, I did replace the recoil pad with a Limbsaver for less felt recoil and added a set of chokes for additional uses such as pig,deer, and turkey hunting. I've only fired buckshot so far with no problems. Hard tind a gun like this for $300 or less. Thansk Buds and SAR Arms

For the price, you can't go wrong with this one. I stripped this shotgun down the first day and had mixed reviews, but keep in mind the price. The fit and finish overall is excellent. The weapons internals look remarkably similar to a Remington 1187, and the threads are Remington spec. Despite the Buds spec of 3" inch only, with a 5 shot capacity, this shotgun will accomodate 2 3/4" as well as 3", giving it the potential of 6 plus 1. It has the crappy plastic / rubber-like O ring, but again, for the price, who cares. Pick up a pack of 4 Remington O-Rings on eBay for $5 and move on. DO NOT make the mistake of thinking you can add a mag extension or barrel shroud....the forend will not allow the shroud and a two shot mag extension will extend even with the end of the choke / muzzle brake. The magazine cap under the metal forend cap is super cheap plastic, but aside from that and the o-ring the rest is comparable to much higher end (and higher priced) semi auto shotguns. I almost bought the Linberta that is heavily advertised, but for some reason had a gut instinct to pay $35 more for this one. My shotgun didnt come with a choke wrench and the number provided for support went to a senior citizens answering machine in Florida, and I havent recieved a call or email back. I havent tried the Sarsilmaz or EAA / USSG website yet, perhaps there's better luck there. Support after the sale is critical no matter what price you pay, so keep that in mind.
