The Fastest Shotgun in the World
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 17 พ.ค. 2024
- This shotgun has some ridiculous speed due to a fairly innovative operating mechanism. All ammo used was full power buckshot and slugs. Today we take a dive on the Genesis Arms 12, a semi automatic magazine fed shotgun that actually works. We've previously reviewed a version of this gun but due to the change in operating system we felt it deserved a new video. The Gen 12 is made right here in Idaho and we're a fan. Hope you all enjoy the video.

Charlie is clearly superior. His ability to handle the rake alone proves his combat effectiveness.
Charlie would win 10/10 with a rake vs Mike with a shotgun. Charlie's son is still great though
While most people are concerned with stepping on rakes - rakes are worried about stepping on Charlie... as they should be.

I love Semi Auto Mag Fed Shothuns❤️ I have multiple there great. Even the JTS i have that I bought just for sag worked surprisingly great. As long as its clean it runs everything
AR 308 lower & Genesis 12 upper...its completely an AR designed rifle, magazine fed...American veteran made in Idaho. SWEET! Mine is on its way.
As a proud and happy owner of my IW TS12. I will admit, this Gen 12 is one seriously badass shot gun.
But at nearly double the cost of my TS12, Im still VERY happy in my purchase.
And lets face it, if cost were no object we would all be buying AA-12 shotguns
this is literally better in every way than an AA12 the only thing comparable is the fostech origin 12
@@efafe4972 For real 🔥not even the same ballpark...
@@efafe4972and a different youtuber did a video showing that this Gen12 blows the Fostech Origin 12 out of the water. And this is 2 lbs lighter than the Origin 12.
@@edjecollins4141 really makes me want to move out of california...
If u really love the TS12, get a DP12. It's hard to beat either for just some serious fun!
I feel like if this shotgun came out in a popular AAA videogame, it would be more busted than the AA12 and USAS-12 combined.
video games are so dumb, if I got shot with a pellet gun I'd drop like a sack of potatoes, you can shoot a guy in a video game with a .45 8 times before he drops. but I suppose it wouldn't be fun if it was a one hit kill
The usas was a lot of fun in far cry 2. :0
@@mattysee24 Tarkov does a pretty good job
@@primaryaccount7626 Tarkov is okay, the recoil on most guns is like a 100 pound chemo patient is holding them.
@@mattysee24 If you want more realistic gun physics go to something like Tarkov. COD is an arcade game, just like how Mario Kart isn't a driving sim COD isn't a shooting sim.
I want it!
Well if anyone can afford it it's you bud
And we want you, TO MAKE MORE VIDEOS MONKEY! DANCE MONKEY! DANCE!
my wife said no.
But do they make it in 10 gauge? 🤔
Watermelon Time!!
I live minutes from where these shotguns are made in Idaho. I had the pleasure of meeting a couple of the co owners at the local range. They were test firing a couple shotguns mainly doing R&D on some new magazine designs. I was lucky enough to get to shoot a couple. First was serial number 2 that was the owners personal gun. The other was one that had a binary trigger in it. Since they were doing research they had to put many rounds thru them. I was lucky and was able to shoot several mags thru each. What an amazing gun!!! I however own a Saiga 12 and had it with me. I asked if they wanted me to get it and do a comparison since they both had never actually shot one. After several mags thru my Saiga they wanted to be able to tear it apart. But I've spent lots of time getting it to run all ammo very reliably and they had nothing bad to say. If the genesis was more budget friendly, I'd definitely own one!!!!
This is the best intro y'all made so far!
The devastation of a shotgun with the ergonomics of a rifle, It’s almost perfect
perfect for jerking at range indeed out of this its useless
The weapon to surpass metal gears!
It's the most American thing you can do 😂
Almost? Why almost?
@@oskawilson4541 Almost because nothing can be perfect.
The way I audibly gasped when Micah threatened Charlie’s rake really just shows where my emotional ties lie with this channel.
Charlie’s reaction was so genuine and scared I almost felt bad myself
@@micahmayfield ...almost.
Great video. Thanks. I'd like to see a comparison between this Gen-12 vs the VEPR-12 vs the AA-12.
The Vepr 12 is almost just as good if not more durable and reliable. Also it cost like 1/4 of the price of this $7000 shotgun.
Vepr is junk, will misfeed especially with lighter loads. AA12 is unavailable so not worth mentioning
And all the Derya models like the VR80, and all the other Turk guns that sell for peanuts...
I own the Benelli you have there and this Gen-12. I love them both BUT my gen-12 will often times NOT lock open on an empty mag. It's had no rhyme or reason when it will or will not work. Sometimes full power ammo won't engage it and sometimes weak ammo will...it misses about 70% of the time. What bothers me is I've contacted them at least 3 times and no one has bothered to answer me. I tried to buy the suppressor and nobody answers me....seems like they got my $2500 plus dollars and that's all they cared about. I do love the gun but mines not quite right. It has never jammed I can say that. You pull the trigger and it goes bang. Good video!
I'm just impressed that it's a mag fed shotgun that actually works.
@Dick Izzinya I stopped reading at CA compliant.
@@collegestudent6071 😂😂😂😂😂😂 please keep this going
Had experience with Saiga-12 by Izhmash, and invested more than 100% of its price to make it right, but it still sucked.
Very disappointed and sold it.
I'm happy with Benelli M4 and 1301 LTT might be my new fav.
@Dick Izzinya Does it only jam in your closet?
@@JohnZ556 which one do you like more? I had been issued a beat up m4 and I miss it but surprised how expensive they are. That 1301 sounds fun!
Can't believe Micha threatened Charlie's infinity rake like that. Brink of catastrophe.
Very irresponsible
I come back to this video sometimes just for that intro. SICK AF
I love my iz 430 saiga 12... which is the magwell version, same as the recent vepr imports. It works amazing.
That ballistic head shot was possibly the most brutal impact I've seen on here.
True, that was amazing.
Just wait til you see a 20mm vs ballistics head
@@justarandomswed Or a real head.
Is this real?
@Katrina Korolov No.. bigger=better why would you want to downsize? Absolutely crazy comment
Listening to Charlie, Micah, and Mike get competitive and banter is more entertaining than 99% of the "comedy" currently in the industry. You have something special there, I hope that dynamic continues to be developed and shared.
Mos def I was Rollin the entire time.
Great backround music too
Agreed!! I want more of this these three had great banter and i was rolling
I would have to disagree there. Comedy in my country is so brash and uncensored i honestly can't get enough of it.
Agreed, need more of that
love it!! ur best vid too!!! do u like the RIA vr80?
I want this gun now and I’m definitely love the competitive energy they just making each other better shooters love it
Charlie and Micah arguing about their shots is just hilarious 😂
No it isn’t. Charlie is pathetic.
“…Fuck you guys…”
Charlie just oozes professionalism. It must be so reassuring to have him on the range with lethal weapons all around.
LOL.. These dudes would all get fragged in a real war.

Pretending you're tough online is unhealthy. You're probably afraid of big cities while I've worked in conflict zones & my lost family im Vietnam. You dont get it: y'all are a joke. Logistics & Pinheads win wars, not War Losing Republican Gun Nuts.
The best intro I've ever seen on a gun video. I want one of these so bad. I can afford it, but wouldn't be happy without the fun switch. Also, I agree with all the positive comments about Charlie. My man's hilarious.
What suppressor is it that you guys had on the Gen-12? Great video!
It's a Rex Silentium Seg-12 if you were still wondering...I realize it's a bit of a late reply.
Wow that's just awesome. Everyone should have one
agreed, and made in Idaho! 🥵🥵🥵
They are made like 100 miles from me. They got them like 500 off right now on their site. 1755 I believe. Kinda want one now. 😆
They should also be select fire, with a suppressor, and without any taxation, registration, or limitations.
Repeal all gun laws, and abolish the ATF!
This could be the first time I’ve wanted a shotgun.
Biden said that’s all we need so it should be good to go
Charlie is so cool. The only guy on YT who is capable of making me watch advertisement on the basis of being utterly hilarious
590A1 sounded like trash on the pump tbh
harry mack does good ads, but charlie "shellfingers" is a comedic genius
He always has me in stitches 😂 his character is GENIUS 😂 as dam dumb as it is
Internet Historian does good/funny ads sometimes too.
Phenomenal opening, man. That was kick ass!
As soon as the video started I thought I mistaken it for one of my playlist. Got me good you Doom slayer you.
Hey Mike, thank you for doing this crazy TH-cam thing. I just built my first toob because you inspired and led me on this journey. Next up is dumping my bank account into 556 and getting training. Thank you so much
hell yeah man glad I could help
Wholesome Sunday moment.
Based financial decision
what toob did u build?
@@GarandThumb oh yeah. Stacking mags and talking to Garand Thumb. This is awesome
If a 9mm can "blow the lungs right out of the body" imagine the damage this can do!
That's playing "pin the tail on the donkey," but the donkey is the wall behind the other guy, and the tails are all the ribs in his chest cavity.
Nearly the stopping power of a 9mm Glock
Charlie is really just all of our intrusive thoughts manifested in one man 🤠

It’s obvious sarcasm because you shouldn’t need a semi automatic shotgun for home defense. Duh
Not even 2 minutes into the video and I already NEED this firearm...
I love in the beginning of the video how the guy was shooting with his fastest shot gun it was just fascinating 👏
My favourite part was when John Garand Thumb looked at the camera and said "it's Thumbing time" before magdumping into an orphanage
Underrated comment
Watching Charlie's endless library of facial expressions throughout the talking segments has me ROLLING, laughing, every episode. He is a gem
You sound like a simpleton.
Saigas do require some tweaking to get them to run well, and it helps to run 1,350 fps ammo to ensure cycling. A mag well can be added to Saigas and their clones to assist in switching mags otherwise it’s exactly like the AK which requires rocking the mag into place. The Genesis looks like it based on a AK design but without the flaws
That's what she said.
@eriklarson9137 you mean (she said) rock your magazine into (***) magwell? 😂
And that's the problem. You spend a grand or more to buy it and another grand to get it to actually work. Madness
I like the shotgun. The special Ed kid in the background is great when the gun designer was trying to not disappoint.
Great video
4 things:
1: I have never wanted a shotgun so badly untill now.
2: more of these types of videos are needed, required, and great 😂
3: is it really a low ready if your chin can’t clear the stock looking over it?
4: we all win today.
No joke I bought a benelli m4 less than a week ago and I'm devastated at the price in these guys
A 25rd drum would be sick in this.
If you happen to have one of these, you instantly become the Doom Slayer. Which is good, in this modern age, the demons are growing in numbers.

@@Wolf_Larsen amen
The recoil control with those slugs is crazy.
considering the weigy of the supressor their is no glory except for using it in operation
@@omnianti0 It has a patented recoil system. It's got all the bark of a 12 gauge, none of the bite. I've fired it with and without the suppressor. I'm sure there is a real difference besides the boom, but I can't feel it.
th-cam.com/video/MGDgHsKGYI4/w-d-xo.html
@@richmay3929 knowing the new anti recoil system that also include muzzle brake they had better to show nude it more instead of a huge heavy supressor or some fancy flashholder/doorbreaker
Short barrel anx a suppressor makes the diff. Lots of perceived recoil in a 12 is muzzle blast.
This intro is one of the best peices of cinematography I've ever seen
I totally love it, nice 1 guys 👍🏽🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 hot stuff 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Anyone not giddy after that intro.....
They can just leave the room now. This looks like the most fun with a shotgun anyone can have

Also as a saiga enjoyer I can confirm those magazines suck
Check out Flux Conduct / John Browne. They did some of the music for DOOM
Naaah. The intros suck. Always.
@@NoNo_IStay most of the doom ost is in my liked songs
My favorite part of this video was when they were arguing over the lethality of the Mozambique headshots as if they didn't just leave a crater in the chest that would rival the meteor strike theorized to have killed off most of the dinosaurs.
Just for the sake of the argument though…
Charlie for sure won that headshot
9mo later and this episodes still cracks my shit right up!! Well done, guys.
Unbelievable what modern technology has created. Great work! Also, I was wondering with all of the improvements that are constantly being made in propellants and ammunition ballistics', can older style military (cold-war era) helmets and modern (post cold-war era) helmets really deflect rounds (grazing or glancing) shots? I still remember my DI's and instructors yelling at me to keep my head-down during infantry-combat-training. It's a given that most direct-shots will penetrate most helmet's but I've often wondered about deflected or glancing shots. Keep up the great work! Jeff-USMC-Retired.
there were shotguns like saiga and vepr, also AA-12 and etc
@@tsugumorihoney2288These shotguns had their own problems, like the huge magazines (AA-12,) high recoil and longer barrels in comparison to this (Saiga and Vepr,) and issues with magazine feeding (Saiga.) This is the first fully automatic shotgun that manages to be very short, controllable, not suffer from any feeding issues or large magazines, and aso obtain a high rate of fire.
