The Citadel Boss 25 12-gauge semi-automatic shotgun is reviewed for home defense capabilities. While purpose-built for this role and enjoyable for range use, its dual buffer system requires attention for optimal cycling, especially with lighter loads. Testing with slugs showed a slight impact shift, but buckshot performed reliably at 25 and 50 yards, demonstrating effectiveness for self-defense.

The AEA Challenger Bullpup in .50 caliber delivers impressive power and accuracy, achieving tight groups at 50 and 100 yards. With a substantial 443 ft-lbs of energy, it demonstrates significant terminal performance, capable of exploding watermelons.

The rifle features a robust 4500 PSI fill pressure and a heavy 12.5 lb build, requiring significant air volume per shot.
