I have the Panzer Arms BP12 and after ~200 rounds or so, no troubles and it just works.

There was a huge run on defensive shotguns last year. I think a lot of dealers ordered them to have something to sell. A LGS here had racks of em. I’ve never used one of the ones mentioned, but i have shot the DP 12 and i believe it is impressive. Sixteen shells went real fast once you got in sync.

Interesting that it seems there are more models of bullpup shotguns than there are bullpup rifles. I never really noticed that.
OTOH, I guess bullpup makes a lot of sense when you consider that the legal shotgun barrel limit is 18". That's one reason I never really warmed up to shotguns. The conventional guns are just so long and unwieldly compared to a carbine. |

I think if you looked beneath the skin on those shotguns, you'd find that they come from a handful of factories (mostly in Turkey) and the real differences are cosmetic and finish spec. |

Turkey is roughly the size of Ohio. There are right around 250 different companies that produce firearms in Turkey. The amount of Turkish firearms coming into the US right now is astounding.

I think the Panzer BP-12 and Black Aces Tactical semi-auto are my favorites from an aesthetic standpoint. Really haven't heard much of anything bad about any of the bullpup shotguns though. They are trending towards the MKA-1919 mag being the quasi-standard for them.
Kinda want to get one, don't need to get one. I already went down the Turkish M4-clone path.

Are there any U.S. made shotguns on that list?
Looked at a bpup Turkish made one in the lgs the other day but hard passed on its over $700 price tag. Yes I would give more than that for a kool US made one though. |

Buddy bought a couple of BP-12's. It didn't cycle with low brass right off the bat so the jury is still out if it will break in enough to do so.
I would LOVE to order one of these, but I shoot lefty and when it did cycle the heavier stuff, it smacked the snot out of my lower lip. As much as I want one, I won't be able to get one. Bummer. |

All these are definitely a result of the 8million new gun owners looking for any defensive shotgun because that's what the current president said to go out and buy. And they don't require a permit in many of the areas that require permits for AR's. Many people say the turkish shotguns work just fine, but I don't know that I would trust my life to one. |

Yeah I hear ya. I have plenty of regular ol shotguns that will work fine. Looks like there is a U.S. Made ak shotgun that I might investigate more. |
