(5 out of 5) awesome
by from Stevens Point, WI on

Absolutely love this gun! I took my son and two grandsons shooting (13 and 15) and all were able to easily handle it. I would highly recommend this gun! Use higher grain shells to break it in.

(1 out of 5) Will not cycle
by from New Braunfels, TX on

I fired 200 rounds and it would not cycle properly. Shells continued to get stuck and failed to eject properly. Fired after clearing the chamber each time.

(5 out of 5) You need to clean before using the first few times
by from Victoria, MN on

When I first took this gun out I couldn’t get it to cycle. It would fire fine, but it would not seat the next round. After taking the thing home I cleaned off all of the machine oil and let’s just say I exaggerated with the CLP. After bringing it back out it worked great. It’s also extremely important to take note of the type of round you’re using and the FPS. 1600 FPS or less is better for the lighter gas cylinder 1600 or more you’re definitely going to want to run the heavier one. I took this out hunting this year as well and although I wasn’t skilled enough to shoot a deer this year, at the very end of the trip I shot a knot on an oak tree about 70 yards out like I was 5 ft away.

(5 out of 5) Semi shotgun boss 25
by from Lock Haven, PA on

I tried to put a 3 shell threw the magazine but it did not work. So I went to 2 3/4 shell.
