2014 Shot Show: Firebird Precision TAC-12 shotgun

[greentips]

Run into these guys in the dungeon of the convention center. According to the owner, they had been working on the AR like Turkish shotgun in the past, and have decided to build their own after figuring some of the things that they did not like. In a nutshell, it is a gas operated mag fed 12 ga. shotgun that uses standard AR trigger. It has a side charging handle sticking out of the handguard on the left side, in addition to the right sided traditional shotgun charging handle attached to the bolt. The barrel uses a Winchester threaded choke system. The gun itself, including the magazine, is about 9.4lb. I was told the MSRP will be about 1600 USD, and the 10rd mag will be 100 USD each.

Looks nice, possible for a saga conversion ;-)

a drum would really make this gun looks ###y. The stock mag looks a little ridiculous to me

 

[charlesquik]

look good except the pistol grip

 

[westward]

Why the heck would they put that pistol grip on a shotgun ?

 

[Dad003]

I remember seein this in a previous year's shot show thread. The shells for it scare the hell outta me.

 

[koseli]

are these coming to canada?

 

[vancity]

unfortunately we would have to pin those magazines.

Double stack or faux drum needed to look the part...but since it takes Standard AR lower parts it will be classed as an evil baby killing AR variant so we wont ever see this....

oh they finally started making their own instead of playing with the akdal 1919. nice. be a great shotgun for open 3 gun if it works

 

[Strangeday]

I like it....but I also liked my USAS12 until the government came to my home and took it away

 

[Boomer686]

Somewhere, somehow no doubt the RCMP will find some bull*hit reason to class it as restricted because it is an AR variant (it uses an AR trigger or some other crap) if not move to have its importation banned all together

 

[TheManInBlack]

It's black and scary. So no doubt gonna be a range toy if brought here

"precision" and "shotgun" in the same sentence?
