Shooting my TS-12 from the hip

Post by GunnyGene » Tue Jun 06, 2023 6:23 pm

First video, couldn't get the audio to work so use your imagination. This was primarily for me to see any significant muzzle rise - basically non-existent. Easy to pump out 5 Winchester 00 and pretty accurate - all within minute of stump. :) Short, only about 15 seconds.

Looks like the recoil goes straight back. Any bruising on the rib cage area?

None at all. Pretty mild recoil actually, partly due to the muzzle brake. Much softer than my old 590. :) There is some muzzle rise, but it's not noticeable when shooting. Playback in slow motion shows it kick up a couple inches but it returns quickly. Likely because of the pistol grip being below the bore axis.

I'm sorry, I saw the shotgun, but kept looking at that fine holster on your hip. I know you've shown it here before, but I really liked it.

Thanks. I've been wearing it quite a bit when out around the property mowing (or shooting), etc. to get the rig (including the belt) properly broken in. It's really very comfy. The old boys in the wild, wild west knew what they were doing. Maybe you should order one for yourself. :)
