I am really enjoying my new Bullpup. Being a women, I was a little concerned about how it would kick. The kick is nothing! I can shoot for a long time and have no problems at all with my shoulder getting sore. It is very comfortable to hold, it is very well balanced.

Love it,, points well! After a few break in shells worked like a champ!

This is everything I was wishing for the recoil was perfect. I Love this purchase a joy to shoot

I ordered this on 2/8/2021, and it was promptly shipped & received on time (per the delivery estimate). Ran 100+ rounds through it today just to break it in. Mostly 00 buck, but also some slugs, #6, various brands, some high brass, some low (all 2 3/4). ONE - and only one - round of the #6 shot failed to eject. Everything else ran perfectly.

One magazine would seat a bit too high. That would freeze the action until the mag was adjusted slightly, then it ran smoothly. It was an easy fix by simply seating the mag & not slamming it home (like with a handgun magazine).

To be brutally honest, I expected more malfunctions for an out of the box shotgun like this...but with the one exception mentioned, they just never happened. I am VERY satisfied with the BP-12!

I purchased the Panzer Arms BP-12 for home defense after reading many reviews on the internet. This compact semi automatic shotgun is perfect for this use. You must break it in properly using 1350 minimum power shells. It comes with two gas pistons. One for 1350 (installed from the factory) or less and one for more than 1350. From the info I have read on the internet it will take at least 200 rounds for a good break in. I plan on using high power 00 Buck and slugs for home defense. This will pretty much guarantee a complete cycle after each round. Some new owners have tried to use low power birdshot for break in. This will not work for break in. So just do it the correct way. From videos on the internet I have learned how to break down the gun for cleaning. It also comes with three removable chokes. The cylinder bore (five notches on the edge of the choke) Improved choke (three notches) and full choke (one notch) I am leaving the cylinder bore choke installed. I have read that using the improved and full choke with 00-Buck will distort the intended pattern for 00-Buck. Some owners do use the BP-12 for bird hunting and for shooting clays. A good use for the improved and full choke. I have added a red/green dot sight. Green laser for shotguns and perfect for this gun tactical light. I am very happy with this gun. Is it perfect??? It does exactly what I purchased it for and I paid a lot less than $2500.00 for it. Bud's service and prices are hard to beat.

I love my bullpup! Super solid and well built piece. Took it to the range right out of the box; and it cycled 2 3/4 inch slugs beautifully. Broke it down and cleaned it afterwards and with the help of youtube, it was a breeze. Very happy about my purchase. The bullpup was delivered in 3 days.

Very quality firearm works as expected and the support at Buds
Was excellent. Will be buy more.

One of the most beautiful firearms I have ever seen! I have not had the pleasure of firing it yet but am so looking forward to it. I was pleasantly surprised how light it is - its AR12 cousin (which I also have) is heavier. I love that Panzer provides the front/rear sights separately, giving you the choice of installing them. These days this is a rare gun to find & I’m thrilled Buds had it - and boy it is a bad boy!! I got some 10 rd mags also, although it comes with 2 5-rds. Love the gun, thx Buds!

Fantastic shotgun! I haven't ran a ton of rounds through it yet, only about a 100. I was running birdshot/target loads though it and not a single jam. The gun is very well made. The machined aluminum upper is very nice. The lower is polymer and is also very solid. The grip feels excellent in your hand. This gun is very worth the money, at least so far!!

Cons



Too heavy but definitely solidly built. But charging is a breeze. Would not recommend this for a weak person or smaller frame person. I am 200 and fit and after a 10-15 minutes this becomes heavy.



It is also bulky



I was disappointed and unhappy it did NOT have the AR style rear charge handle as seen on the BP12 on many videos. It has the side charging handle only



The sights do not come mounted which I expected it to be since I have seen many long guns come with the sights installed.







Pros



As stated above. Solidly built.



It is compact.



Has picatinny rails and M-Locks for loads of attachment. I have flash light and red dot reflex mounted on mine



Overpriced because of the currently crisis



I decided on this because the Garaysar Fear 104 was out of stock. I wanted the picatinny carry handles which this one does not have. I will install later



Aesthetically very pleasing



Comes with 2 mags which is great. Mags are easy to load



Mags release is smooth and easy



I like the compact size but at 31in you need to look hard for a proper fitting carry/storage case. They are either too short , too long or too wide(with a picatinny scope mounted). About 12in tall



Kit includes 2 mag, sights, cleaning kit, 2 assemble/disassemble tool, chokes.



I Like the front and rear hooks for a strap which I have on mine



The front forearm grip is detachable which I like if you want to change to a different style



Mag release is smooth and flawless



Cartridge ejection is flawless so far.
