LOL...he fooled me.
Back in the 1950s my dad bought a brand new Belgium Browning Semi Auto 12 gauge shotgun. He used it for goose hunting.
He had to send it back to the factory because every once in awhile it would fir off 2 or 3 shells in succession.
My younger brother had that gun until it was lost in a tragic boating accident.
OK, kinda remember that now. Thanks.
Don’t feel bad—he fooled me as well until I read a history on him when his business/channel partner ended up dead and he was forced off of Youtube.
Very impressive. I’d love to have one, but that’s not gonna be an option here in the US without all that frigging license and stamp stuff.
Still have a video someplace of an AA-12 firing FRAG-12 -2 gauge grenades. Blew the living crap out of concrete block wall - like having a handheld 20mm cannon!
NO ideal. Never saw him before. I just liked how he put that gun through it's paces. Especially the water demo.
No thanks.
FPSRussia out of prison yet???
Not everyone has a balcony, joeblow.
like all full autos, pretty useless.
Only exception is placed weapons (tripods).
Any decent marksman with a semi-auto beats the hell out you.
I have a 12 gauge magnum “goose gun” (long barrel, full choke). It fire (at 00 buckshot) 18 .33 inch in diameter.
My effective range is over 100 yards.
You get the AA-12, and I get my pump. I can take you out for about 40-50 yards before you can get me with that shorter barrel, lower power rounds.
Not sexy, just effective.
With my tube extension, it holds 8.
So 8 x 18 is 144 greater than 30 caliber pellets downrange in about 3 seconds.
And it’s not a full auto, it’s a pump.
Didn’t Biden recommend a shotgun?
I think that shotgun was featured in one or more of the, “Expendables,” movies.
He’s from south Georgia.

A few years ago he got his ass in a crack over the shooting death of someone he was associated with, and he stopped producing videos. But they were entertaining.
Well spotted! You should write DoD and warn them. They've been using them in combat for about 20 years and haven't found out yet.
Just be aware that if you do get a Class 3 license you are subject to unannounced inspections by the ATF. And dealing in Class 3 weapons takes MONEY. And to the best of my knowledge there is no such license as a Class 4. There is a Class 2 that allows you to manufacture weapons but not for any kind of resale. The average ATF Registered Class 3 M16A4 sells right now for over $26K..!! What are known as Dealer Samples, weapons that a Class 3 Dealer can acquire to perhaps facilitate sales to law enforcement agencies are not cheap either. There are a whole bunch of different types of weapon classifications such as Pre may weapons, Post May weapons, which refer to the law passed in 1986 stopping the manufacturing of Class 3 weapons for civilian sales. When that passed the value of already weapons sky rocketed.
So in short it is not cheap to actually setup a Class 3 dealership should you wish to engage in that business. Do some research and you will see what I mean. I used to be involved in the Class 3 world.
“I just went down a rabbit hole while trying to find a good shotgun for home defense.”
Hear me out; I chose a Henry .410 lever action for home defense (in addition to my 9mm).
If needed, you’ll be firing at close range and inside your house. Do you really want a 12 gauge blowing a hole through one or two of your walls? Not to mention going deaf from firing a 12 gauge inside!
There is a wide variety of specialty shells available, which made it even more attractive to me.
Many years ago, my brother picked up a Remington 1100.
We used to say he can miss with 5 shots just as fast as we could miss with 2...
