I’m curious how these stack up against the likes of Churchill, Canuck and Girsan shotguns?
SOLD OUT: FS-PRO
- Thread starter Tactical Imports
- Start date
These are called Bushpigs in other markets across the world. I was interested mostly because they were reported to cycle everything so well, which does seem to be the case. The folding is kinda a gimic although it does store much smaller. I cant speak to much else as this is my first semi auto shotgun so I am by no means an expert.
I hope owners of those actual models chime in, but my research has shown the brands you mentioned can be kind of hit or miss as to how well they cycle or run on lower power shells. Typically it seems a fairly extensive breakin period is required to get them to run decently on lower power shells.
My own experience with a Stoeger M3000 Defence model (inertia action) is that is still will barely handle any kind of traploads reliably. Runs fine on full power 2 3/4" shells.
The only unknown on the Axor is long term reliability. I'm not a high volume shot gunner, so I think they will out live me. Both my FS Pro and FS Elite X required essentially zero breakin, both ran trap shells immediately.
Tactical Imports offers a life time warranty that should put high volume shooters minds at ease.
25 yard bench rest 5 shot slug group from the FS Pro using Challenger target slugs. I was using an improved cylinder choke. Wanted to do a 50 yard group, but range was busy.
My shot gun has a Vortex Crossfire red dot mounted on it. Black circles is about 3.5" in diameter.
