Does anyone know the barrel threads of this shotgun? I was told it was m22x.75, but the threads are finer than that. The company won't answer calls and any emails sent are returned saying the email address is invorrect (i emailed every department with the same result).

Cody, if you already own the shotgun your best option would be to take it to a gunsmith. They should have no problem figuring out the correct threads. Unfortunately if the manufacturer isn't answering sounds like the only option. Sorry you're having trouble but hope this helps some and wish you luck.

Cody, the only thing I can suggest is to take it to a gunsmith, he should be able to tell you. Good luck!

What is the thread pitch for this barrel?! I can't find info anywhere and the company is unresponsive.

Hi Cody and welcome to the Buds Community. Muzzle Brake or Flash Hider (threads M22x.75RH). Cheers and stay safe!

Cody, unfortunately not alot of information on this. So your best option is to continue trying to contact the manufacturer. You can call them at 239-561-3444 or email them at (sales@emperorfirearms.com) or if they don't answer that one try (info@emperorfirearms.com). Id email both and call hopefully one will answer. Sorry you're having trouble but hope this helps some.

Are both stock and handle included with the purchase? Or do I need to purchase one of them separately?

Jen's, they're both included, no additional purchase necessary. This includes both the stock and the birds head pistol grip. Hope this helps.

Jens, Both come in the package. - Shoulder Stock and Bird's Head Grip.No additional purchase needed. Cheers and enjoy!

Jens, both the stock and the bird's head grip are included with this purchase. Have a great day!

Is the faux muzzle brake removable?

Mitchell, the barrel shroud (does not function as a brake, just for show) can be removed from the 18.5 inch Fixed Cylinder Choke Barrel. Happy Holidays! -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LugRpc8mrHk&t=31s

Yes, this one can also be removed. Hope this helps.

Mitchell, yes the brake can be removed. Have a great day!

Will this weapon perform well with beanbag rounds?

Jonathon, they should work in a pump action shotgun, but the only way to know for sure in this particular gun is to try a few rounds. Have a great day!

Johnathan, yes Sir, bean bag round rounds are no issue in the Pump Action MPTAC12. Cheers and stay safe!

Yes, bean bag rounds will work fine in this. Its a pump action shotgun so reliability wont be an issue with them. No reason they wouldnt work. Hope this helps.

I bought this shotgun mainly for home defense. It's one of those shotguns that is going to spend a lot of time hanging out by my bed side so I didn't want to spend a ton of money. I have taken it out to the range quite a few times and it actually shoots very well for the price. I have shot many different brands of shells and various size shots. This shotgun has not disappointed. It is certainly not a Benelli but it will do what it was intended for - home defense. I'm a big fan of Turkish made firearms and this shotgun is a great buy for the price. I would recommend this shotgun for anyone looking to buy a shotgun at a budget price.

My recent purchase of the Emperor MPTAC Ultra Combo 12 Gauge Firearm was an excellent choice. The firearm’s performance is outstanding and I have fired a full range of various types of shells from Birdshot to 00 Buck and also Slugs. Never a hang up or shell rejection. The price was exceptional for such an excellently constructed firearm. Emperor had provided me with a reliable product that I can trust to perform in any situation. Thank You Bud’s Guns.. and Emperor Firearms. Have a good day and Stay Safe.

Quick and smooth delivery, quality shotgun for a great price. I would buy my guns, ammo and accessories from Buds Gun Shop. Very happy with my purchase and in dealing with Buds.

This has been a great semi auto budget shot gun. I’ve had this model a few years now and it’s been pretty reliable with almost any rounds it has had failure to feed a few times out of a few thousand rounds but it’s normally with light shot like bird shot. With any decisive or buck shot it works great.
