Videos tagged with Low Brass Ammunition

This video recaps two training courses attended by the speaker: a radio communications course and a shotgun fundamentals course, both taught by Mike Fior of Zero Point in Pennsylvania. The radio course covered programming, spectrum differences, FCC rules, encryption, and environmental considerations, culminating in a town-wide search exercise. The shotgun course focused on essential fighting techniques, emphasizing getting the firearm to work, put rounds on target, and be a usable tool, using lower-recoil ammunition for a less intimidating experience.

This video documents the third part of an endurance test for the Rock Island All Gen 12 shotgun. The presenter encounters significant feeding issues throughout the test, particularly with the lifter and extractor mechanisms. Despite trying various types of 12-gauge ammunition, including bird shot and buck shot in both low and high brass configurations, the shotgun consistently fails to feed rounds reliably into the chamber. The presenter concludes that due to these persistent feeding problems, the shotgun cannot be recommended for any practical purpose, such as hunting or self-defense, and the test is terminated.

The Fostech Origin 12 is a 12-gauge shotgun showcased at Shot Show 2015, featuring a patented gas system designed for efficiency with various ammunition types, including low brass. A key innovation is its tool-less barrel exchange system, allowing users to switch between long and short barrels in seconds via a single pin. It also boasts a non-reciprocating charging handle and an ambidextrous magazine release for rapid reloads.
