“There is a lot of appeal in a Saiga shotgun,” Mike Searsen writes over at ammoland.com. And yet . . .”The factory versions with their sporting style stock and diminished capacity magazines leave much to be desired. Some individuals and a few companies have made conversions to these shotguns. Yet the reliability of them is more ‘miss than hit.'” An assertion Lone Star Arms would strenuously challenge. Anyway . . .
Judd Foster of Fostech decided there’s a market for an American Saiga-style box-fed shotgun. (Not to mention their bumpfire stock the Bumpski, which somehow fell off its website). And so he created the Fostech Origin 12.
The shotgun was originally developed by now-defunct Alliance Armament of Indiana. Fostech’s version uses proprietary magazines and parts which are not interchangeable with an AK.
Suffice it to say, the Origin 12’s ugly as AF, even without the wheel of death hanging from its underparts. But seems to cycle OK. We’ll have a full review ASAP.
Face it, She is so out of touch and un-hinged, she will probably protest our right to hunt unicorns!

“I do not see a “good guy with a gun”: I see a naive human who is more likely to exacerbate a tragedy than stop it.”
Yes, because a “good guy with a gun” in the church at Sutherland Springs, Texas would have made the situation worse: instead of 95% of everyone in that church receiving a gunshot wound, 98% would have received a gunshot wound.

Have you seen how the kids wear backpacks now? Loosen the straps all the way and wear it at the butt. Well, you won’t suffer a Forrest Gump wound…
I’m looking into a quick release system mainly for the compactness of it, especially when coupled with a LAW folding stock adapter.
I do not like the levers on the Cry Havoc so it is out.
The Dolos does not hold the barrel and attachment bushing together making it look flimsy. Also they do loosen up when firing. Although the company addressed this with the gen 2 model by adding a lock, owners say it does not hold up over time.
I was impressed when I saw the LEO. Everything is solid and being a machinist myself I it is a precision addition to the weapon. I do agree the price is a little steep and hopefully will go down over time. Sometimes you get what you pay for!
