Customer Reviews for Blue Line BL-18 12 Gauge Shotgun

Haven't had a chance to shoot yet but appears to be a solid pump gun. Buds great as always!

What a great gun for the money. This thing cycles good and shoots really well. Great gun for home defense or a brush gun on a deer drive. Slings slugs and you can beat it up just keep it oiled.

REMINGTON 870 ... MEET YOUR DISTANT COUSIN...

Very nice gun especially for the price. I have not fired it yet but pump cycles well and is built well. Very satisfied with it!

Blue line pump shotgun was the exact clone of the 870. I took off the synthetic furniture and installed my laminated 870 stock, fit perfect! Buds shipping was fast. My purchase was very easy to send to my FFL dealer. Buds is my go too for the best prices on guns and ammo!

I have spent some time with this shotgun and have been really impressed by this gun. The fit and finish on this gun, the simplicity of operation, this product is first class I am recommending to everyone that I know. As always Buds service was great have and will continue to order from Buds.

I found this shotgun to be a faithful replica of a Rem 870 express. On delivery I disassembled and cleaned the internals, everything seems well machined. It came covered in oil & well preserved. Function is smooth and the trigger is decent and not too heavy. Remington wood fore-ends are a direct swap. The Magpul Remington 870 fore-end does not fit. The Shockwave Raptor grip is a direct swap for the stock. Both Remington and Scattergun Tech mag tube extensions fit. I give it a 4.9/5, and I do not believe you will not be disappointed either.

Excellent shotgun for the price.

I received the shotgun in a timely manner. Good packaging and all. This is a direct replica of the 870. Solid quality, and shoots great. Very impressive. I had some old 870 wood stocks. Switch them out. direct fit. Ordered an extension tube for 870, direct fit. Fit and finish are good. No complaints.

No issues with this shotgun. Would recommend

Anyone complaining about this excellent shotgun I would consider a fool. If you take it out of the box and don't check it for correctly placed Barrel Etc then you're not doing your due diligence. Never take a firearm out of the box without inspecting it and go out and intend to shoot it. And writing a bad review over something like that is pure ignorance.

I bought this shotgun after seeing the reviews here online and also watched a video on YouTube. Excellent shotgun. As a LEO, I qualified with it and carry it everyday on duty. It shoots as well or even better than the 870. No problems at all. I have shot probably close to 50 rounds flawlessly. Extremely accurate as well. Even with slugs from 50 yards. Right on target. Great price as well. Strongly recommend to others.

Arrived in good time and good conditiuon. Just what I wanted for home defense.

Not top of the line, but fair

This is a great shotgun. And for the money, you simply cannot go wrong!

Everything works great a little heavy but will cut down on recoil

Cant beat it for the price, took it skeet shooting and put about 150 rounds of target load through it and had no issues whatsoever. The great thing is that it field strips exactly like an 870 so you wont have any trouble finding any guides on how to clean it. Besides it being a little on the heavy side I can find no reason not to recommend this gun especially if you're like me and just want something to do a little target practice with now and then.

As usual Bud’s gets your firearm out to you quickly. Bud’s always does a great job. Thanks, GMC

This is an awesome value on a great firearm. The only thing is be warned that not all Remington furniture will fit this gun even though manufacturer states it will

I love this shot gun! very accurate and a perfect home defense weapon. It's not quite as smooth as my Mossberg but for the excellent price, I think I can get used to the not so smooth pump action. I think it's more a function of getting to know the gun more than a problem with the gun. I would imagine after more use it will probably get better or I will. Easy point and shoot, low recoil and easy on the shoulder. Perfect budget home defense gun.

Works flawlessly. Fun fun to shoot!

Very satisfied with the Blue Line 12ga.18.5 , order process was easy , delivery was great , all directions and information was clear.
Very satified customer experience. Looking forward to future business and purchases with Bud's Gun Shop.

I was impressed with this shotgun i had 870 years ago seems as good as the Remington

Very pleased with this purchase. I bought this shotgun based on reviews on this site and video reviews elsewhere. Yes it's made in China. I understand if you don't want to buy it because of that, but you would be missing out on a true bargain. This shotgun is very well made. The machining is nice and clean. The finish is nice and even. Looks Parkerized to my eyes but the product description does not list the finish. The action is smooth. All steel construction as in NO MIM parts. Steel trigger guard. Very good trigger just a little creep and brakes around 4 1/2 to 5 lbs. Accuracy is good 00 buck hits where you aim at 30ft. Brass bead is bright and perfectly centered. It feels like a substantial, high quality weapon in your hands. The safety has a nice positive detent and sound. The stock furniture is good and the buttstock has an effective recoil pad. The foregrip has nice checkering and feels good. It does overlap the receiver about 1 1/3in with the action open which may interfere with a side saddle. I would buy this shotgun again and recommend it highly. The fact it takes 870 accessories is just icing on the cake and makes it a great gun for customizing. The fact that is says "made in China" is OK with me. It's almost like having a theft prevention system built in haha.

This is a good shotgun. We got this for home defence and it patterns perfectly for that. I do recommend this shotgun
