Have you thought about switching over to a VEPR shotgun and modifying it to have the safety lever and maybe the bolt knob on the right side of the gun?

Love it. How long did it take you to feel comfortable running a gun like the Saiga one handed? How many do you have through it so far?


Ive felt comfortable with the Saiga-12 since I started my YouTube channel.....so about a year.

Well I can run my Saiga-12 pretty well as I can my AR-15 now that its ambi lol. The reason I shoot the Saiga-12 more is that its cheaper to go shoot at the range. This is a great question and it may become another video...thanks!

Hell yea man!! I saw the video that you posted here awhile back. Seeking you running the AR and I think you shot the AK in it also and the Saiga I am very impressed. How much time have you spent with the guns? And how much faster have you gotten with them!

Yeah I medically retired from the Army in 2010 from the 160th SOAR(A). While in SPECOPS I've received training in the 160th "Green Platoon" and other companies like Viking Tactics would come every now and then. While in Afghanistan I got to do a day of training with Rangers and "D"-boys but so you know I was an AVIATION BlackHawk guy NOT a ground guy....now those guys are BADASS!

Awesome, OP.

Please upload that video to wimp, I think it would be right up their alley:

http://upload.wimp.com/

The site specializes in obscure but powerful or thought-provoking videos, and I think yours is both.  Never recommended this for any arfcom video before.

I go to the range and shoot now that Im retired from the Army about 2 times a month. I try to do certain things to get a video out of the footage when I go.

OP, first off, you fucking rock, brother!

Second, have you considered turning that Saiga into an SBS? It seems to me that it would be a lot easier to manipulate with a shorter barrel, bringing the balance point further back. (Although, it would make it more difficult to stick the muzzle onto the ground during reloads.)

You know what I like the most about this?

The last video you posted, people were jumping your shit for shooting dirt, and telling you the S-12 was trash, and you are wasting your time, and Blah Blah.

They then said, go get some training and you said fine I will.....


And you frickin did, and posted a video and now everyone loves you.

That's awesome. You defiantly have a good system down. Do you have strong ass arm or is that gun that light that shot that accurate?

You should strap on a prosthetic with about 5 mags velcroed to it...  Or a crossbow

Yeah Ive thought about it but I dont believe in paying $200 just to take some inches off the barrel. And you right about the reloads lol.

Yeah Ive had other training while I was still in the Army. Viking Tactics and a couple other places would come up and give classes every so often. This is the first time Ive done this as a civilian.

Well my arms were big before I lost the right one and now my left is stronger. I use my arm and cheek weld to hold and secure the weapon and it works pretty well. The Saiga-12 is pretty heavy but it just runs so well and its MUCH easier to reload a magazine fed shotgun then a tube pump gun....but that didnt stop the instructors from making me run a pump the first 3 hours of the class lol. I wish I wouldve recored that the first day.

Quoted:
Why do you guys look around after you shoot? hear something?





Visually scanning for new threats.
When you go into fight or flight mode you often get tunnel vision and your hearing may also be affected.  With tunnel vision and poor hearing it is easy to miss a potential threat that would normally be in your peripherals, or that you may have normally heard approaching.

Glad you laughed. To tell the truth, I wasn't sure if you, or anyone else, was going to take it in the spirit that I meant it.






I would always tell young guys in the firehouse, if you get hurt... just hope that guys are still breaking your balls, because then you know you're going to be okay.







When folks start being nice and polite to you... then you know you're screwed.







In any case, I don't care if you meant your video to be inspirational or not... it damn well was. And I'm sure a lot of other folks that see it will find it to be too.







Thanks for posting it.

Rockin'!

Shotgun manipulations suck one handed.  Can't imagine being forced to do it that way all the time.

Thanks for the motivation to train even harder, a**hole.
