Gun and gear reviews Unboxing the Sulun SG-12 SPAS-style shotgun in Canada

Mine just arrived from Tactical Imports, so here’s a quick unboxing and first look. I haven’t taken it to the range yet, so these are only initial impressions. Anything specific you’d like me to test in the follow-up?

Just got mine as well.

So far the only thing I hate about it is the button to unfold the end of the stock is impossible to press by hand. You need an Allen key or something.

And the latch that keeps the stock locked to the iron site ring doesn’t lock well so the stock unfolds with very little effort.

Same with mine and it's as heavy as 10 boxes

I found a trick for that button on the stock.

The arm brace hook has a little nub on it to lock it into the stock.

That nub is small enough to push that button in.

I figured I wouldn’t use that arm brace. But now it’s coming with me.

I have to white knuckle the stock release button with 2 thumbs. It’s fucking brutal. The other buttons I’ve worked in a bit, but jeeesus Christ my hands hurt trying to move the stock

The bigger button that moves the whole stock isn’t so bad.

But that one with the butt pad is BAAAD

I’ve just been larping around with it in my house for 30 min or so and I’ve got a blister on my finger from attempting to move it.

I did notice though that the button is starting to get a bit smoother after using it a bit.

Both of mine are bad 😂 hoping they just need some working in.

Edit: few days of working the buttons in and it’s pretty smooth now. Nothin getting stuck anymore. Stock unfolds easily but is still tight so won’t pop out when shooting folded.

That might play into your favor actually.

A few videos I saw the bigger switch was weak so the stock would fold when firing it.

How tough is that spring button to unfold the stock for you? Wonder if mine is just brutal

The big button? It’s not too bad. The one that unfolds the end of the stock though is horrible.

And The one you need to pull back to full unfold the stock?
