"Saiga - 12C" will go into service with the police and special forces, as well as wherever it is purchased.
In urban conditions, a very popular product. Instead of a bullet, get a handful of buckshot; if you want, you don’t miss. If a bullet, then far beyond 30g. It is possible to shoot cartridges with rubber (traumatic) bullets, tear gas, signal ... The nomenclature is impressive ...

Shotgun in residential areas?
The presence of a bullet and BPS is very good quality, I wonder why they did not buy USAS-12

[cniza]

For close use and maximum awesome effect, but seriously, a very good device. Successes.

smooth-bore guns "Saiga - 12C". The weapon is intended for units fighting against drug trafficking,

this fight requires AGS-17,30, Pechenegs, SVD ... and smooth-bore - to protect their huts.

In the jungle, short, a debugged saiga with buckshot will give odds to many submachine guns. And the AGS there, like a goat button accordion, 15 meters on a twig will stumble and squint the shooters themselves.

And what did a colleague write wrong? AGS in the jungle and the police, you don’t see anything strange, it’s the Police with the AGS. For the Caucasian company, for greenery, they worked as VOGs, just for this purpose, from above to the bearded.

[alex-cn]

In heavy rain have they never shot him? And I do not recommend ...

[raid14]

The radius of "mowing the shooters themselves" should be divided into two.

I use this unit for more than 10 years. Eats any cartridges, both a store and home-made, for all the years of operation there has not been a single wedge, skew. He beat ungulate game, actually up to 50 meters, duck goose, the same. If you screw the muzzle nozzle, then the shot will continue. Something like this. In general, satisfied.

[vasilev]

And you don’t know its cost? Now I’m only looking at the vertical IL-12, so I want to change it to some cooler barrel.
