As I'm a sucker for strange and unusual of the gun world, bullpups in particular so I picked up a Tokerev USA TBP 12-Ga. Bullpup Shotgun this morning. It's made in Turkey.
$302.00 OTD including a spare mag.....It only comes with one.....Mags are made of steel and spares are not that expensive.
It came as shown with sights, three choke tubes and wrench, and a heavy load friction ring.
I'm impressed with the build, hard chromed bore/chamber/carrier/bolt-face. Very smooth. AR type controls. The trigger while a bit heavy (5#) is metal as is the trigger assembly.
I cleaned it, installed the IC choke tube and took it down to my range for testing with heavy-loaded S&B 00 Buck. Oh, I also installed the heavy load friction ring....The S&Bs are no joke.
Testing went off without a hitch. Recoil with the heavy ring installed was about like a Rem. 1100. Very manageable.
I was satisfied with the function but I wanted to make some changes.
The sights were OK but I opted for metal sights as the OEM ones are plastic....I think I might go with Daniel Defense fixed sights as it will make more sense on a shotgun.
It was in need of a pad for the cheek area. They make a adjustable cheek rest for it but I already had one that would do what I wanted it to do.
I also put pads on the lower fore-grip area and a hand-stop/sling loop.....I stuck a SKS sling on it but will refine that later.
