This review by Ian McCollum of Forgotten Weapons details a hands-on evaluation of the Cobray Terminator, a 12 gauge shotgun. McCollum, an expert firearms historian, highlights the weapon's notoriously poor reputation and its unique, problematic open-bolt slam-fire action. The review focuses on the firearm's unreliability and the intensely unpleasant shooting experience due to harsh recoil, ultimately deeming it a "dumbest, most worthless, stupid idea for a gun ever actually marketed."

The Cobray Terminator is critically reviewed as one of the worst shotguns ever made, featuring a crude design allegedly using M2 Browning .50 BMG barrel shrouds. Its slam-fire mechanism and unique, difficult loading procedure contribute to extreme recoil and poor handling, making it a low-quality firearm.

This video reviews seven firearms that failed to gain market traction due to design flaws, reliability issues, or niche appeal. It covers the Glock 37 (.45 GAP), Alchemy Arms Spectre, Taurus Curve, USFA Zip 22, Cobray Terminator, Dardick Gun, and Enfield L85A1, highlighting specific problems like poor caliber adoption, trigger issues, feeding failures, and dangerous design elements.

This review examines the Cobray Terminator, a unique single-shot 12-gauge shotgun with an open-bolt, slam-fire action. The video highlights its unusual manual extraction process, requiring the barrel to be pulled forward to eject spent shells. Despite its unconventional design and significant recoil, the demonstration showcases proper safety operation and handling.

This video compares the Liberator pistol and Cobray Terminator shotgun for hypothetical resistance use. While the Liberator is mechanically reliable and uses a more effective pistol cartridge for ambushes, the Cobray Terminator is notoriously unreliable. The speaker concludes that easily manufactured slam-fire shotguns make the Liberator's concealable pistol capability more valuable for a resistance group.

The Cobray Terminator is a unique, single-shot 12-gauge shotgun firing from an open bolt with a fixed firing pin. Its design features a collapsing stock that can impact the shooter's face during recoil, and it requires manual extraction of spent shells. This review highlights its unconventional operation and ergonomic challenges.

This video showcases the Cobray Terminator Shotgun in action. Based on the title and description, the content appears to be a straightforward demonstration and potentially a review of this specific firearm. The use of hashtags suggests an interest in gun collection, reviews, and the historical or military aspects of firearms. The inclusion of ASMR in the hashtags indicates a focus on the auditory experience of shooting.

This review of the Cobray Terminator 12-gauge shotgun highlights its status as one of the worst ever made, with only 1,500 produced. Despite its reputation, the reviewer found it functioned reliably, though shell extraction proved difficult. The video features extensive testing against various targets, including pickles, nacho cheese, eggplants, and watermelons, showcasing its destructive power in a humorous and energetic manner.

This Q&A session covers a wide range of firearm-related topics, including comparisons of modern and historical firearms (PS-90 vs MP-7, Desert Tech MDR vs WA2000, G41, TT33/PPS 43 vs 1911a1/M1928a1 Thompson, M14/M1A vs BM59, PTR-32), ammunition effectiveness in modern warfare (5.56mm), long-term ammo storage, optic choices in competition, the future of rifle platforms beyond the AR-15, 2-Gun match design challenges and lessons learned, the success of Brownells retro products, SMG match availability, the Desert Eagle's suitability for competition, French surplus ammo quality, promoting matches, favorite personal firearms, the use of cover in stage design, bipod utility, parts kit builds, C&Rsenal projects, worst firearms (Terminator shotgun, Zip 22 pistol, worst rifle), and the potential impact of NFA repeal on match design. It also touches on non-firearm related topics like fencing and viewer-supported content.

This is a Q&A video from InRangeTV where the hosts answer viewer questions on a wide range of firearms-related topics. Questions cover historical firearms developments, specific firearm models (like the Hudson pistol, SIG 55X, AK-74, Valmet M76, FAMAS, AR-15 vs. AR-18), firearm design principles (polymer vs. aluminum frames, roller-locked blowback, rotating barrels for RDO pistols), competition shooting formats (2G-ACM, Retro Wave, 3-gun with precision rifles, Desert Brutality), firearm maintenance and modification (binary triggers, progressive reloading), classic vs. modern optics, and even hypothetical scenarios like winning the lottery to fund firearm reproductions. Personal preferences and experiences with firearms and shooting are also discussed.

The Cobray Terminator is a unique, open-bolt, breech-loading 12-gauge shotgun known for its extreme recoil and unconventional design. Despite its reputation as one of the worst shotguns, its simple, overbuilt mechanism ensures 100% reliability. While impractical for most uses, it scores high on 'cool factor' due to its historical context and crude, partisan-era build.
