Mine wasn't as badly made as this one and still never trusted it. I used it as a backup stashed HD gun, but once the stock broke, I replaced it, then retired it to the safe. The old " you get what you pay for " proves true with these Turkish shotguns. Great video series👍
My local gun shop has sold these, and has had nothing but issues with them, they're being returned a lot. I'll stick with my Ithaca 37. You can get some good used pump 12 gauge shotguns cheaper than something like the GF12 and you can get a good used Remington 870, Mossberg 500-590, Ithaca 37 etc.

Excellent video. You hit the nail right on the head, cutting corners, you aint kidding. These cheap shotguns are made from the lowest quality materials and firing these could be potentially dangerous. Spend a bit more and get a better-quality brand.
A few years ago when I needed a cheap, but dependable shotgun, friends and reviewers endorsed the Maverick 88. It was great advice, it's a solid, no frills shotgun that gets the job done.
Thanks for the good info. I'll stick to a Mossberg 88 if I want a cheapish pump shotgun. The one Turkish shotgun I've been tempted by is the $400 Panzer M4 since I'm never going to spend $1,200 on a Benelli M4.
I can't get a M4 Benelli for 1,200 but your right .. I have a Stoeger M-3000 works with it Walmart cheaper bird shot and high brass 3" cases .. And it's made in Turkey too .
Expensive turk guns ive had...my wearherby SA08 semi 12...failed...dealer gave $$$ back...catastrophic failure ( bolt split in half and op rod bent..bound action..churchill 512. 1300$ sxs....JUNK internals fell apart. Buy an 870 or mossberg 500..better off

I’m glad I sold the Turkish pump gun that I briefly owned.
I guess we will have to make do with our Baikals, and hope they hold up 🤪
