Item # 144174 Style TYP-F120801C UPC 713012050139 Condition New Manufacturer [Typhoon Defense](https://www.kygunco.com/brand/typhoon-defense) Model F12 Caliber 12 Gauge Action Semi-Auto ** BREAK IN PERIOD: 50 ROUNDS OF HIGH BRASS HEAVY LOADS** When you receive your shotgun there will be oil on it, this is factory manufacturing oil and not a true gun oil. They recommend cleaning the F12 and applying a reputable gun oil. They then recommend that you put 50 rounds of heavy, high brass shotgun ammunition through your gun for the break in period. This will ensure your shotgun is working smoothly and will cycle all kinds of loads from light to heavy. The Typhoon F12 is hands down the best magazine shotgun ever made. Years in the making, there is no detail that has been ignored. Built on the AR-15 platform, the F12 has great familiarity with anyone who has used an AR style rifle. The attention to detail in the billet upper and lower receiver is unmatched. With all the different styles, options and accessories offered the F12 is truly customizable to fit your every need. Unlike many other manufacturers they include flip up sights, slings and magazines in the box with the gun making it ready to use right out of the box. Once you get to feel an F12 shotgun in your hands for yourself you will see our craftsmanship and quality are absolutely the best on the market today. We believe in the durability of the F12 and back it up with a no hassle LIFETIME WARRANTY. ** Box Contents (Whats Included)** F12 OD Green Sport Shotgun 3 Five Round Magazines Flip Up Sights Sling (two point bungee) Assembly/Disassembly Wrench Chamber Flag Owners Manual **Manufacturer:** Typhoon Defense Industries **Manufacturer Part Number:** F12BRONZECLASSIC **Item Number:** GF12CBRONZE **UPC:** 713012050139 **ACTION TYPE:** SEMI-AUTO **BARREL LENGTH IN INCHES:** 18.5000 **GAUGE:** 12 **INCL MODIFIED TUBE:** Y **MAX CHAMBER SIZE:** 3" **METAL FINISH:** COLORED **OTHER FEATURES:** FLIP UP SIGHTS 3-5RD STEEL MAG 18.5" CHROME LINED BARREL SHORT ALUMINUM HANDGUARD SLING EXTENDED CHOKE TUBE **OVERALL LENGTH IN INCHES:** 38.0000 **RECOIL PAD:** Y **STOCK MATERIAL:** SYNTHETIC **SWIVELS STUDS:** YES **OTHER FEATURES2:** PICATINNY RAIL, HEAT SHIELD OVER BARREL ADVANCED CHARGING HANDLE RUBBER OVERMOLDED PISTOL GRIP **STOCK STYLE:** TACTICAL **LENGTH:** 41.1500 **TYPE/COLOR:** SEMI-AUTO MAGAZINE FED BRONZE **SIZE/FINISH:** MATTE BRONZE **MATERIAL:** ALUMINUM LOWER ALUMINUM UPPER **STOCK COLOR:** BRONZE **METAL COLOR:** BRONZE ** WARNING: This product contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm.

I have shot 135 shots through the F12. Started with 3", 1500 velocity, going down to 2 3/4", 1150 velocity. I had several FTE & Bolt lockback issues, which have been corrected through the break in process. I have shot, 00 buck, defensive loads, slugs, target loads and birdshot. The gun seems to be sensitive to the velocity of the round and the gas setting. When it's happy, it just keeps shooting. Typhoon has done a great job, reducing the felt recoil of the rounds. The gun has a very solid feel when shooting. I am enjoying getting to know this firearm. 9/16/2020 ** ** ** ** ** ## Don't Forget Your Ammo ```json
