Very fun little gun. Jammed once out of a hundred rounds. You can tell it’s pretty cheaply made but if it works then there’s no problem. I like this gun a lot would definitely recommend it for the price

Perfect for the price! Feels great in hand. Was able to mount red dot without an issue. Does not come with adjustable cheek riser, but mount on stock, is removeable.

Better than I thought it would be for the price. A lot of plastic but it feels sturdy. Factory sights are cheap plastic but replaced them with a better set I had laying around. For the price it was worth it.

Recently purchased a TAR 12 as a Christmas present to myself. I have only ran about 40 rounds thru it but so far no issues been very pleased with it. And for the price you cant beat it. If your looking for an afordable magazine fed shotgun definitely consider one of these.

Bought this rifle 12 gauge shotgun and I have to say I absolutely love this gun pretty accurate The Recoil is not so bad looking for an affordable gun this one is the one you need the only downfall about this shotgun is the mag the mag absolutely sucks I would suggest picking up a better mag when you buy it

I give this 4/10. Consider the GForce GF99 Deluxe. I regret buying this for 3 major issues. 1st: Even when on safety, if you eject the mag, it releases itself forward if you're locked to the rear. That could slam a shell into the receiver. 2nd: The charging handle comes with the Titan charging handle. That doesn't matter when the gun sends it into the stratosphere because they seat in the receiver loose. 3rd: Comes from the factory with next to no oil. Shooting straight from the box without proper lubricant can cause issues. General cons: Doesn't come with cheap plastic cheek riser & they charge $30 for it. The plastic is cheap and not durable so when you attach and remove accesories, it will cut and chip the plastic considering this thing is mainly plastic. Pros: it's shot 55/70 rounds.

Good home defense AR-12. Not thrilled about the whole gun, upper and lower being a synthetic material but it is still worth the money in my opinion

The shotgun arrived packed well.. Buds delivers speedy delivery always....Great to deal with. I got the TAR12 out of the box and looked over well. Fit and finish are great. These are not $20,000 trap guns...These are "Social shotguns" Tactical if you prefer the term and are meant for business. Home defense being the first thing that comes to my mind.... So the overall looks are that of a tool meant to get the job done and not sit in the rack looking spiffy.... First off we cleared the action and removed the fore end ...Then installed the charging handle (Comes in the parts box) Checked out the function of the action and the controls (Safety, mag release, bolt stop lever) All seemed well. Grabbed some "Snorty" rounds (THESE GUNS DO NOT LIKE LOW POWER CHEAP LOADS) We headed out back to our range and stoked this bad boy up.. First shot....Failure to operate the action.....second shot same thing.. Back to the bench....Disassembled the gun down to the bare bones....Looked things over well Gas ports in the barrel were plugged up with crap....Reason...Burrs in the barrel at each port... Cleared the gas ports and polished up the inside of the barrel at the ports... Reassembled the gun.....Back outside to the range.. Sweeeeeeeeeeeeet....Gun runs like a champ.... I am still giving 5 stars....A minor little glitch was all. This is not a gun costing the price of a hand finished weapon.....Little issues can and do happen. I would buy this gun again...And did

Great shotgun. Had it for over 2 years now, and had hundreds of shells through it, with no issues. Will definitely do business again.

Can't beat it for the price. Has a great balance and weight to it for my stature. Not super heavy and bulky like some other shotguns. Can't wait to get a couple 10rd mags and a drum and throw tons more slugs.

Not a bad shotgun for the money. Only one failure to feed on the 7th round with about 40 rounds through it. Needs a better recoil pad on the stock, but overall im surprised with a $220 semi auto shotgun.

Very happy with this shotgun. Haven’t gotten a chance to shoot it yet, but will soon. As far as everything else it’s definitely good for the money. Well built, light weight, lots of mounting options. Tokarev is also a long standing company, that made firearms in Germany during the world wars. I definitely recommend this shotgun for the price you can’t beat it.

This shotgun is a blast-pun intended. No complaints. Cycles well, no failures with full power and hi-brass shells. Added a red dot for quick pointing and it's way cooler than it should be for the price. Very satisfied. My second purchase from Bud's and it won't be the last.
