Emperor Firearms MPTAC12 2020 18.5 Pump Action 12GA Black - 18.5" Barrel, 4+1 Rounds, Wood, Turkish Walnut Stock

Great shotgun for home defense. After about 50 rounds, ejector jammed. Easy fix. 25 more rounds fired with no more issues.

Nice shotgun, but after firing the first round, shells stopped loading from the tube.

I'm Really Happy with this Shotgun. It's nice quality for the price and it feels great in my hands and is balanced very well and it doesn't weigh a ton! Emperor Firearms is a company that I would look at again.

This review needs to remain open. The purchase Procedures went smooth and the firearm arrived in a reasonable amount of time.
I like the fit, finish, balance of the firearm, and I also like the style.
Unfortunately the firearm arrived in a non-working condition and I am currently waiting for a shipping label from the manufacturer so I can return the firearm for repair. I'm confident once it is repaired it will give many years of service.

good prices, and good product quality.

This was my first online weapon purchase and Buds really made the process easy. I won't hesitate to buy another gun in the future.

I want to preface this by saying that I have not shot the gun yet. I will re-post after i put some rounds through it.
From the initial unboxing to present I am happy with the gun overall. The gun looks great, aggressive yet the wooden fore-end gives it slightly more traditional look. Starting from the back the adjustable stock is light weight and even though appears to be a bit flimsy is actually solid. The action is smooth and the gun feels good in the hands with the pistol grip. The sights are nice and better than some on more expensive guns. Having a picatinny rail is nice for upgrades. For $350 the gun is overpriced but in this market very worth the money. If the price were dropped this gun so Far would be a 5 out of 5 for a good, light, quality, entry level home defense gun. Someone who is strictly buying this gun for home defense can’t go wrong.

Before the internet, most people purchased their firearms at local sporting goods stores.. (limited choices, high retail price)
Today, although firearm brands, competitive prices & choice of "Sellers" are almost unlimited; It's even MORE IMPORTANT <to> choose an honest, experienced trusted "Seller!"
That's why I've relied on #Budsgunshop for most of my internet purchases of guns, ammo & accessories!

Hadn't heard of Emperor before but read where they are made in Turkey by a respected manufacturer. Couldn't find a Mossberg anywhere so I took a chance on this guy.
Surpringly well constructed, smooth action. And certainly affordable. Hoping to get it to the range this week.
So far so good. Picked it up at my local FFL gunshop here in Virginia Beach, Ghost Army.
They are great and only charge $20 for up to 3 firearms! Can't beat that.

Beautiful firearm very well made ready for the range. I would give it a 5 but my manual was not in the case and this is my first shutgun thanks really
