    I purchased and installed a recoil strap and finally was able to try it out with my Shockwave. The recoil strap worked flawlessly, and I was shooting slugs. The recoil was completely manageable. No discomfort at all. A friend of mine who has a Shockwave was cut on his hand by the slipping during recoil. This strap completely stops all slipping. There was a problem of managing recoil in the Shockwave and you have provided a solution. I highly recommend the recoil strap to anyone. Thank you.

    This is an excellent video, for years people cried the ATF was being a bully and they wanted short barrel shotguns. Well now we can legally own them all I hear are haters saying it has no purpose, its just a range toy, this so stupid etc etc. I don't know why so many people trash these guns, its a huge victory for us and a big fuck you to the ATF. For me personally, our home has many door frames and rooms, its not a very open floor plan. I have an 870 Express too but im going to be banging it into everything moving around at night. With my shockwave I can hold it close to my chest without fear of bumping anything. By pushing out like im striking with a bayonet I can get on target faster vs coming from a low ready to shouldering a full size shotgun.

    I think youve hit the secret formula to running a PGO properly.
    I've been push pulling my 2 PGOs with reasonable success but the strap and light hand stop is brilliant.

    Absolutely love your videos. Thank you for your space wizardry. A few questions. I am almost finished putting together my Shockwave. Have your strap, optic, modified Magpul fore end, just need the hand stop to be shoot ready. I have a 6 shot Tac Star slim side saddle on it now. Your’s seem to all be 5 shot. Should I be worried about that extra round punching me in the face under recoil? I can always modify it if so.
    Second, have you tried the Defender Tactical adapter? It allows you to convert any 12 gauge Mossberg into an “S” model. I’ve got one on the way to test, just wondering if you have any experience with them.

    I'm looking at putting one of these together after seeing your video with forgotten weapons a few months back. If you don't mind my asking, I have a couple questions about the build. How long of a rail do you put the light on? It seems like a longer one might be a little more stable, but also might interfere with your grip. Also what side saddle do you usually run on your guns?
    Edit: Would you mind putting the full parts list in the video description?

      Babawande Traditional PGO (pistol grip only) platforms with a vertical grip are much more difficult to use than the birdshead grips found in guns like the Shockwave. You cannot mount a Recoil Strap to them, and they do not lend themselves well to any sighted fire techniques. Best bet it’s to convert it to s Birdshead grip. Shockwave technologies sells them. Look for the Raptor grip. Thanks for watching!

      I DO offer training on how to run these. I have run various standards that shotgun instructors use to gauge proficiency. I’ve done several from Tim Chandler and Rob Haught (who I consider to be the best shotgun instructors) and have been able to pass all of them at the highest levels.

      LinkHyrule03 for MY use, yes. For those that haven’t invested the time? No.
      As an ambush weapon (how all in home defense guns SHOULD be used) you only need something that you can hide with and aim at a choke point or entrance.
      For terrible days where you have to move in the structure, less length is beneficial. Even an SBS would be shortstocked in 99% of movement within a home. I can achieve a full sight picture and max recoil mitigation by cheek welding this. When I do that, it’s still as short as an SBS that is shortstocked, except I get to use a dot.

      LinkHyrule03 short answer: I’ve not run one. I have no idea
      I have limited experience on bullpup designs. The 556 variants were easy to move with in tight spaces. The downside is that all of them were much more difficult for me to control in recoil than their standard counterparts, even though the bull pups all weighed more. I imagine that even a semi auto 12ga in that format would rock me around quite a bit. I am guessing (strictly a guess here) that a different approach is needed to run those at the same speed and accuracy as a standard format shotgun or the BHG guns.
      Semi auto shotgun platforms are much more pleasant to shoot, easier to run, and minimize use of the least reliable part of the shooting system: the shooter.
      Could be a winner. Pick one up and let us know!
      There is a chance that I may be getting my hands on the new Black Aces bullpup. If I do, you will definitely see some posts about my experience with it.

    I don't know of anybody, hunter or LEO shotgun user who pushes the gun out as they break a shot. My shotgun rides on my shoulder and not my chest. I don't understand your chest reference? I was trained in law enforcement on shotguns and have been a bird hunter for 40+ years so maybe I am just an old LEO FUDD? I guarantee that if you push the gun out while firing one of my Bernneke black magic Grizzly defense slugs you will likely have a disabled arm or shoulder for months. It better be held tight against your shoulder.

      How about learn something that may allow you to hit something accurately with one of these and be comfortable using it. Or you could continue using it in a way that would never protect you.. your choice.
