So I was told with bull pups there is a “break in period” of I believe 200-300 high velocity rounds (anything 1300 fps and up) once the action loosens up a bit they will cycle anything you put in there.
That's a lot of rounds. Not certain my shoulder could take 300 rounds of turkey loads. Gonna have to find something a little less painful. Thank you for the advice. I'll let you know how it works out.
Sweet. my shoulder hurt just watching the heavy nitro shells!
The weird thing is that you can't even buy them up here.
Thank you for the unboxing! I recently purchased one myself. I have not shot it yet but will as soon as some snow melts and I can get back to my property. I also have added a red dot sight which will also allow the open sights to be used in conjunction. As well I added a front angled grip and a 45 degree mount for a flash light. Thanks again for sharing your video.
That sounds like an awesome set up! I've enjoyed mine so far.
Very cool looking shotgun
If my life was depending
on a 12ga I'd rather a pump
Less issues with a pump for sure.
I have one of these and I love it. I dialed the gas back a little to soften the recoil and it helped a lot. I’ve put about 100 rounds through it, mostly buck shot but I have ran at least 10-15 bird shot through it and I can say she hasn’t had a hick up yet.
Awesome! That is great to hear. Ours has been great as well.
How do you dial back the gas brotha?
1300 maps plus
@@timeinabottle316 take the little cover off of the bottom of the pistol grip and there is a little screw in there
It looks good. The compact Bull pup 12 Guage w/ slugs may be the most practical Bear Self defense . better than a 44 magnum or 10 mm. I would carry the Bull Pup around my Land and have a sidearm for back up. I would never want to count on a sidearm to Stop a brown Bear -- they would keep coming even if you hit them a couple time w/ a pistol.
I agree with you on all accounts. Hopefully I never need to test it but if I do I'm ready.
Nice! Can this use the VR80 Magazines?
11:57- When he said, "this is meant for rabbits or grouse"... at first listen I thought he said rabbits and elves 😂
I've heard of some strange critters up here but not elves, although North Pole isn't far away.
Got mine about 1 month ago I've only had one missfire !!!and that was a bad cartilage!!gotra have atleast 1300 so it doesn't jam!!!
Awesome! I love ours so far.
Glad you used those nitro rounds. Gforce says you HAVE to break that model in with shells that are faster than 1300fps. Otherwise they have some jamming problems. I used Federal Power Shok 2 ³/⁴ and now i think i need shoulder surgery lol
Wow! I didn't know that. Sorry bout your shoulder. If I could find more Nitro 3" rounds I'd just use them but holy cow the kick is something else..
@@alaskacutthecord769 yup, they just say anything above 1300, i guess once they break in they'll run pretty much everything. Great vid keep it up!
how many rounds to break it in
@@JD-wm3if if I remember right, it's says it only takes about 100 high brass rounds to break in
Where can I buy an aluminum hand guard. After a 100 rounds ran through it mine just fell apart. Don’t get me wrong I love the gun but I need an aluminum hand guard. Thanks
I'm really not sure but will start looking around and I'll let you know if I have any luck!
🤣 Is your head on straight Adam! You get him Phyllis!! I’ve heard of G Force. They make a nice looking line of guns. No wild turkeys in Alaska 😁 but that recoil on the turkey load was insane 😳 I’m looking to get a semi auto shotgun though! I wonder if your G Force will handle slugs? Maybe with a barrel swap? But the recoil on slugs?? Ouch!!
I came with a cylinder choke as well so a saboted slug should work fine. Just not rifled for the accuracy. Not sure if there are different barrel options. Mag options yes.
I'm about ready to pull the trigger on that. How's it holding up now brake it in yet and still having feed problems
Really good. Once broken in I broke it down and cleaned really well. The key seems to be holding it really tight so that recoil isn't lost motion rearward.
If you add a pistol grip on the front picattinny rail and practice with 1560fps smooth bore slugs you can learn to control the recoil away from the shoulder
That's a really good tip. Thank you.
if you remove the fake silencer the upper assembly will come apart. Its for keeping the upper assembly attached.
It's called a barrel shroud, not fake silencer
@@kennybaker1026Also known as a fake silencer..
Will you be using your new gun to “eliminate” your other vehicle?
Not any time soon!
Your front sight is on backwards.
A ,out of the unboxing videos of this one are that way, guess it’s a manf thing
My handguard is plastic. Is yours?
This one is all aluminum.
I have seen turkeys but they are ones that got away from their owners
I haven't even seen one of those yet.
Uhhhhh... I think it's very good idea to dis assemble, oil/clean, then re assemble any gun before you fire it.
What did you buy this gun for? I don't like it.
I appreciate your comment for sure. The reason that I bought it is directly related to the near moose attack that I had while on snow machine. Being a bull-pup design the over all length is much shorter and make the gun more compact for travel purposes.
Now that you mention it you are completely correct in the disassembly and cleaning first. Depending on where it is made they like to use products meant to keep it from rusting that may inhibit the working of the gun for sure.
