@ObservantSeedsower awesome 👌 I'll have to check that out! 😀 I have not shot mine yet, but it's what I hear a lot of folks saying about the 1300 and up 'high brass' I have a bunch off ammo on its way and a Turkish robocop looking bullpup pump 12G. I Also got a RIA vrpf14 pump to try out all together with the Tokerav as all of them cost $199 from PSA clearance online.
I had this same issue with cycling. I tried oobuck 2.. and 3" and bird shot, none of it cycled. Only thing I could get to cycle was 000buck but idr any details on the ammo. Glad theres a vid to point out whats recommended, thanks guys
I recently bought a Tokarev and all it needed in my case for it to function properly was breaking it in. In the beginning I kept having to re-bolt it but after about 10--13 rounds it ran each one smoothly. Hope this helps anyone who recently bought a Tokarev as well.
Thank you for your comments. If you watched this video you see where I pointed out the problem. The owner of the shotgun asked me to go ahead and fix it. The follow up video shows the results only one week later. It actually functions with anything I put in it now.
I just bought the sport version of this. This video helped a bit on installing the charging lever. At 63 it was the 1st time I ever had to install a charge lever. It was 35ish yrs ago when I was in law enforcement in Texas that I purchased a new shotgun. Not to mention my hands no longer work as they used to lol.
Just spring needs breaking period. Same thing with my vr80. What i recommend is when you store the gun inside your safe, pull the charging handle all the wya back and leave it for couple weeks so the spring can be loose a bit
Before I purchased the TBP12 I watched numerous videos showing the same result of flawless operation. So given that there were only two videos showing the constant malfunctions FTF, FTE I though what the hell Ill chance it. Well, I am here to state this thing SUCKS! 50 rounds of 2 3/4 turkey loads 1550 fps and 50 failures. NOT ONE ROUND FUNCTIONED. You ask; did I clean the gun beforehand? Yes, I did a thorough job of cleaning and inspecting and proper lubrication and assembly. Been doing this for 60 years. Contacted Tokarev and they said nothing. He suggested inserting the magazine fully, then pulling down to lock the mag release mechanism. Yes, you can insert the magazine too far into the receiver and the back of the mag will block the bolt from going forward. POOR DESIGN #1. Second, the factory Tokarev 10 rd mags bulge when loaded and cause the rounds to go crooked inside and not feed correctly. I am so disappointed, because I thought the design and ease of assembly/disassembly was good. I tried 3" shells but they still don't function any better.. SO far, totally disappointed and feeling ripped off
This video is probably too long. I show the cause of problems near the end and then I fix it and show it running almost perfectly in the follow up video. I sympathize with your disappointment.
@@taylorfurr6530 let me rephrase that I could only put two shells at a time because of the range I was at it would fire one but the second wold jam this happened six times. Couldn't even get the bolt back the last time
You got to break these semi-auto Turkish shotguns in by racking the slide hard as hell like 200 times before you put any oil on it to wear the parts in a little bit. Then leave the bolt locked back for awhile and itll loosen the spring so itll run lighter loads better
You are inserting the magazine into the rifle too hard. That's why it goes up so much.Also, use a different cartridge. It is necessary to increase the gram size. I have this product too and have not had any problems. There are errors caused by you.
Turkish shotguns are ok. They work. They can be fun. Lots of fun to shoot. You can make them more reliable. But they don’t hold up with extensive firing. Turkish pistols I find different. They appear well made reliable and dependable. I had the Typhoon f12. I liked it. But finally sold it. I have the Sar P8L. 9mm that I love solid steel Cz75 clone and runs great. Just my opinion
Seems like the sights are on backwards. They should fold to the rear. That winchester ammo is notorious for being sicky in the chamber. Try some Federal ammo.
That's the point it's not for those with attention spans of a knat. It's a in depth review for those of us who can sit and watch it because we like to know the ins and outs of our fun guns.
Ive got three blue lasers on mine with a red tac light on bottom. Its my home defense weapon. I have flip ups on it for day time but i prefer to fight in the dark obviously
@@ObservantSeedsoweryou are the wrong person to claim that - you have not even been able to insert the magazine in the beginning - you should better post videos about flowers or haircuts
I absolutely hate watching people who don’t know anything about firearms trying to do firearms reviews.🤦🏻♂️The only thing this video lacked. Was a negligent discharge.
This comment is so dumb, I’m a new gun owner and this is going to be my first gun ever, are people that may even be new to firearms not be allowed to take videos?
i have a mossberg 835 and a tokarev . i use my tokarev tbp12 just as much as my mossberg and it functions just as well as my mossberg does . some people dont care about name brand some people cant afford name brand so they go with what they can . sure some maybe cheaper but dont make it a bad firearm
I don't have to use "high power" rounds. I fixed the weapon and now it shoots anything I put in it. If your interested just watch the followup video linked at the end of this video. Thanks for your comment.
Then you need to buy some quality spring loaded flip up sights. I didn't mess with the factory sights I bought new sights and they work the way they are supposed to.
Вообще, это похоже на попытку сделать гладкую Сайгу на основе М16 - полный бред. Процетируя персонажа-инопланетянина из фантастического фильма "Враг мой", роль которого исполнил Луис Госсет Мл. : " Не прочно!". Или MG.34 под гладкоствол переделали (Джордж Лукас и Кейтлин Кеннеди оторвали бы с руками).
See, it needed to be tweaked. The factory should have done it… semi auto gas guns are pretty reliable, but never seen a semiauto mag fed shotgun run “flawless”
Mine do run great after the break in. And yes they needed breaking in. You make it sound like that's a major flaw. For me it was nothing to break them in. I found the ammo they like right off the bat. And it doesn't matter the brand of ammo as long as you don't go below a certain fps. Who said flawless? I did say never fails and so far it hasn't since the break in.
I think you don't understand guns. You can shoot thousands of bullets with Tokarev Tar 12 without any problems, and it has a lifetime warranty and can be replaced if there is a problem.
Does anybody know what break in periods are I mean the 1911 brand knew for example has a break in period of 500 to 1000 rounds before it cycles properly
