Customer Reviews for JTS M12AK Tactical 12 Gauge Shotgun

I fell in love with AK 12 Gauges after I bought my SDS VP12, so I was in the market for another one, and when I saw this Saiga 12 Clone from JTS, I wasted no time purchasing it. This shotgun is amazing! It's HEAVY. Almost 10 pounds unloaded. So recoil mitigation is inherent. 4 position gas system. Mine came set on 2, and it shoots EVERYTHING on 2 without any issues. For the price point, and the fact that Russian AK 12 gauge clones are only coming out of China, and China knows how to make a good AK, you cannot beat this shotgun.

I was very impressed with the build quality on the JTS M12AK. For the price it simply cannot be beat.

This is one awesome shotgun, i love it so much, 6 stars.

It’s a 12 gauge AK. What’s not to love???? Shoots like a dream. No matter what you feed it. It’s a beast.

Well honestly I bought this several years ago, and still have not shot it. It looks good, had good reviews from others. Still to be tested.

Great home defense shotgun. Knock before entering.

I like your service and I like what I bought. Thanks

my house is much safer now. Thanks Buds! Great transaction

A GREAT SHOT GUN, WITH THE ABILITY TO PURCHASE EXTRA MAGAZINES, YOU CAN LOAD OVER 10 ROUNDS IN A MAGAZINE. FOR COMBAT SHOOTING THE CHANGE AND INPUT OF A NEW MAGAZINE IS VERY EASY. BECAUSE IT IS A SEMI AUTO IT MAKES FOR EASY SHOOTING WITH BACK ON TARGET MUCH EASIER THAN A PUMP SHOTGUN. PLUS YOU CAN LOAD MANY MORE ROUNDS THAN AN EXTENDED MAG TUBE IN SEMI AUTOS AND PUMP SHOTGUNS.

Heavy! Well built! Simple and just plan cool for a beater truck gun.

JTs AK12 is definitely worth it for the price, reminds me of saiga but seems to function better than mine did. I ran 25 rounds of high brass 00 and then switched to high brass dove and clay, on the 2nd gas setting it cycled them no problem. Don't use low brass, it doesn't seem to eject them consistently. Inserting the magazine is a little tricky at first, almost a double movement of the standard AK tilt, but you'll get used to it quick. All in all, it slightly exceeded my expectations, it's built rugged, accurate enough to hit moving clay pigeons, and cycles right out of the box with high brass. Getcha one!

I love this gun. I have purchased other Ak styled shotguns. This is the best by far. The buying process was super easy. Already shopping for my next one.

What can I say it's a 12guage in an ak platform. Speaks for itself, Works great when setting gas system correctly to your ammo. Definitely would recommend and for the price it's a steal.

Fast shipping as usual from buds. Expect the usual AK oddities heavy control latches that are so hard to move you think you’ll break them. Some minor rust on parts that are hidden from view. Yes I know it is a new firearm built in turkey. But figured they want you to have the full Russian Chinese quality experience. It shoots ok still breaking it in 500 or rounds so far. The real question “would I purchase again?” No…. Not a hard no just doesn’t meet my meager standards.

Long time listener second time buyer! I only wish I had heard about Buds a long time ago. I have been so happy with the service and products! I regret giving my hard earned $ to some of those other outfits. Buds had my business from here on out!

Yes there are a few accessories for the JTS M12AK, log onto JTS website and you will see what they have available.

Virtually no aftermarket parts available, so that's no fun for customization options. This is a fun shotgun though. I did have some hiccups breaking it in, but I was using cheap target ammo. It ate all the high brass I put through it, but after 300 high brass it finally started cycling low brass ammo flawlessly. Definitely needs the break-in period. Also needed a detailed cleaning before firing. I found metal shavings and a lot of grit in the action upon purchase. Overall, 4 out of 5 stars, especially for the price point. It's hard to pass up on a $300 AK shottie

Heavy. Everything about this gun is heavy the charging handle heavy the gun itself heavy, it looks awesome it feels awesome, recoil is a dream. I like it but I don’t at the same time fun range gun but this thing will wear you out just holding it for extended periods. Oh and it feeds so-so even after adjusting the gas. Kindof noticed the quality standards aren’t exactly the best.

this shotgun is a blast to shoot and great service from buds like always!!!!

This thing is sweet! Took the recommendations of a lot of reviews, and thoroughly cleaned it before I took it out to the range. Ran 2 boxes of high brass 1350 fps shells no problem. Buds shipped out super quickly too. Unlike some another major online store (looking at you PSA). Great transaction overall. Thanks!

what a fun gun , not much more to say , looks good and shoot good can’t beat the price

Not really happy with this shotgun. Fires only high brass and still has eject problems. Low brass is a headache.

Great shooter, no jams with 25 rounds through it so far.

The JTS M12AK Tactical 12 Gauge Shotgun was one of the best buys I bought from Bud's. With the proper gas setting it handled everything from birdshot to slugs. The choke that came with it was somewhere between full and modified. I got a full set of chokes from Bud's that worked fine. All in all, I am pleased with the gun except the stock was a little loose after fairing it. I used a little Lock Tie on the screw and held it up so far. JJ

This shotgun is everything ever reviewer said it is
