I’ve long been in the market for a semi-automatic shotgun. To me this seems like the ideal defense against mobs of any kind. The only reason I haven’t pulled the trigger (pun intended) is because of the overall unreliability of most mag-fed shotguns.
Somehow or other, I never came across the IWI Tavor TS12 until very recently. Yes, IWI is Israel Weapon Industries. But I can’t find a single review anywhere of this shotgun failing to cycle or fire when using the recommended loads. I dislike that I can’t quickly change magazines, there’s a whole reload process once the tubes are empty, but it starts with a 17-round capacity (with a ghost load), and if I’m in a situation where I need more than 17 12-gauge rounds and don’t even have a few seconds to load more, then I probably should have brought my AR instead.
Anyone have other opinions about this?
