Emperor HD-12: Accessories and Mods

This video demonstrates how to increase the magazine capacity of a Beretta 1301 shotgun by installing an extended magazine tube. The process involves replacing the original magazine spring with a longer one from a Nordic Components kit to achieve the desired capacity, effectively recreating a configuration previously restricted by the ATF.

This video details modifications made to a Remington 870 shotgun for 3-Gun competition. Key enhancements include cutting the barrel, installing choke tubes, adding a magazine extension, and relieving the forcing cone for improved patterning. The speaker discusses the evolution of popular competition shotguns, noting the transition from the Remington 1100 to Benelli M2s.

This guide details the installation of a Carlson's Mag Tube Extension and a Strike Industries Mag Tube Clamp on a Remington 870 shotgun. The extension increases magazine capacity, while the clamp provides a Picatinny rail and QD sling attachment point. The process is presented by an expert firearms instructor, emphasizing practical upgrades for enhanced functionality.

This advanced guide details the comprehensive refurbishment and customization of a Remington 1100 shotgun into a 'Pig Stick' for boar hunting. The process involves extensive repair and modification of both wooden and metal components, including reinforcing a cracked stock, staking a shell latch, tuning the gas system, and installing custom accessories like a cantilevered scope mount and a Cuts compensator. The video also covers refinishing the stock with custom checkering and a unique oil finish, demonstrating advanced gunsmithing techniques for a challenging build.

This guide details the process of extending a Remington 870's magazine tube, addressing the challenges posed by factory swaging and the need for custom spring lengths. The presenter demonstrates the installation of an XS Sights +2 extension, highlighting the importance of removing detents for proper function and the necessity of cutting the magazine spring to the correct length for reliable feeding. The video emphasizes that this modification allows for increased magazine capacity, which can be crucial for home defense or competition.

This guide details the process of installing a two-shot extension tube on a shotgun, as demonstrated by Wilson Combat. Key steps include ensuring the firearm is unloaded, removing the barrel and old follower, preparing the magazine if necessary, installing the new follower and spring, and finally attaching the extension tube. The process concludes with a functional check to prevent binding.

This guide details a DIY technique for creating 'poor man's slugs' by cutting birdshot shotgun shells, a method historically used for defense and hunting during times of scarcity. The process involves carefully cutting the shell casing to create a projectile that functions similarly to a slug. The video demonstrates the technique on a Beretta 1301 tactical shotgun and discusses the importance of cut accuracy for flight stability and potential reliability issues in semi-automatic firearms.

This video demonstrates critical firearm safety failures, including poor muzzle awareness, lack of trigger discipline, and unsafe handling in a residential environment. The individual exhibits difficulty with basic firearm manipulation, culminating in a negligent discharge indoors. It serves as a stark warning against improper firearm handling and the importance of professional training.

This guide details the process of creating a DIY wax slug from standard birdshot, as demonstrated by the 'Collapse N Protect' channel. The modification involves melting wax and pouring it over the shot to create a cohesive projectile. The video highlights the increased effectiveness of this DIY slug compared to traditional birdshot, particularly in its ability to concentrate energy on the target, as evidenced by its success in shattering a cinder block. The creator also humorously notes the potential for using scented wax to alter the range's odor.

This video from Collapse N Protect, featuring an instructor with high authority, experimentally tests whether 12-gauge shotgun shells mounted on a plate carrier will explode when shot. The tests, using birdshot, buckshot, and Dragon's Breath rounds, demonstrate that while shells can be breached and their contents spilled, they do not detonate or explode without primer ignition and the compression force typically provided by a firearm's barrel. The explanation highlights the essential components and conditions required for a shell to fire.
