    SHOT SHOW 2018: IWI TS12 bullpen shotgun and TAVOR 7, and news on X95

    First post, the new IWI TS12 bullpup semi automatic shotgun was available for us to shoot.

    The shotgun is fed through three manually rotating magazine tube. Unfortunately, this also means this shotgun has zero chance to enter Canada due to the rotating magazine design.

    It is a "big" gun, purely because it needs to accommodate 12 ga, but comparing it to other guns like Strike 12 it is not big at all. I found it quite controllable to shoot and point. Without any time to drill, my impression is that the magazine "change" and reloading are not too convoluted like some of the other bullpen shotguns, even though I am not too fond of the "finger activated" switch to rotate magazine. I would rather to have something using gross motor skill. If I am looking for a bullpup semi shotgun that holds a million shells, this is the ticket.

    Loading of TS12 as explained:

    Can't they just replace the rotating mag on the gun to one where 2 tubes are solid plastic and you have 1 tube that’s real to be Canada legal? Or like all tubes blocked to 1/2 rd for a total of 5?
    Order in council, for when politicians want to order people instead of being ordered by the people.

    Should police follow the law or should law follow the police?

    I'm sure they could, but it bastardizes the entire intent of it to the point that I just wonder why even bother...
    I know, it's going to be so awesome! /)^ε^(\

    This is Canada, being free is illegal but we still try and do it every day of our lives, that's why.

    What about news on the X95?
    You can use a rifle as a doorjamb or paperweight, but that's not what it's designed for. It's not what the rifle, in its soul, longs to do.

    The anything with a revolving magazine restriction is just plain stupid. But hey, most of the regs are.
