He's awfully critical of a gun he isn't even using the right ammo for.
>>
>>29298422
That is seriously the coolest shotgun ever if it weren't for the drawbacks Ian outlines in the video. If it were designed for 2 3/4 and didn't have that retardedly long-stroke slide, it would be a pretty good contender. Unfortunately it wasn't, so a Mossy 500 will work until something better comes along.
>>
What ian did in the video was like taking one of those civilian legal MAC 10 rifles cobray made, loading it with .45 GAP, and then bitching about it becuase you have a fuckhuge, ungainly long arm that doesn't feed or cycle properly.

And then rather than lament the lack of proper ammo, and thr fact that the gun had to be bubba'd to be civilian legal in the USA, he slams the entire concept

Yes, people make something simmilar to 2" competition shells for these all the time.

pretty much. The MAG-7 is a too-large weapon in a too-short package, that, even with the correct ammo would be difficult and uncomfortable to shoot with the way everything is sort of... just cramped onto the gun. The most damning is the slide coming back to smack the trigger finger, which is avoidable, provided you take the time to train enough with a boutique shotgun that shoots shells you have to either make yourself or shells that aren't the proper length for the gun. I probably speak for many when I say I have much better uses for that time, like masturbating to anime or breathing air.

Ian's review of this thing is largely correct: the correct ammo just isn't made for it and its awkward to shoot. This is not a weapon worth defending.

I liked it in video games, but remember in vidya games you have ample supplies of the correct ammo, and you're not actually the one shooting the damn thing.

there have been better short shotguns made since this thing, and it's really only a niche piece, an interesting footnote in gun history.
>>
>>29298442
Its kind of interesting in other ways, the feed and cycling mechanism is quite a good design. But the rest of the gun is pretty much a bit like trying to fit square pegs in round holes with the sketchy magazine in the grip and the proprietary shells.
Don't say this often about many guns, but if it was actually a bullpup configuration with full sized 12G, it'd be relatively decent.

>>
>>29299601
The increased spread with sawn off shotguns is vastly exaggerated by movies and videogames, the conception probably comes from the use of birdshot, the lack of a choke, and with old shotguns having choked barrels, and that choking being removed when hacked off.

A sawed off double barrel with proper chokes fitted should probably produce a decently tight pattern.

The loss/gain in velocity isn't super big either.
>>
>>29298422
>all the people in this thread acting like size is only a problem due to the longer barrel and stock that the gun was fitted with to be US legal
The MAG-7 is 21 and 2/3" long. For comparison an 18.5" barrel PGO shotgun with a regular pistol grip and not one of those Raptor grips is 27". That same PGO shotgun shortened to the same OAL as the MAG-7 would have a ~13" barrel and would be able to hold 4-5 regular shells in the magazine or 5-6 of the MAG-7's short shells. The better choice is obvious.
>>
>>29300696
Additionally, the regular PGO shotgun could be modified to accept a magazine like >>29300562 and then could be shortened slightly further until the barrel is the same length as the one on the MAG-7 (about 1/2" further).

He actually said it was smooth shooting. You seem to focus on the gun not feeding which is understandable instead of how the gun teaches you to use bad trigger safety, the magazine capacity, the weight, and the special snowflake ammo nobody has. He never really uses the fact it doesn't feed ammo it's not designed for against it

This is how retarded you sound, but most of the Ian fanboy crowd doesn't own firearms so it's not surprising they don't see the issue.
>>
>>29302335
See >>29302256
>>
>>29302335
Except that in this case the gun uses ammo that is not obtainable, and even with it is still a bad gun
>>
I'd honestly never heard of the MAG-7 until watching the video. I thought it was an SMG or, not a shotgun.
The idea itself seems somewhat useful when in the original configuration, but Ian's analysis and thoughts were on the ones brought to the US that had to be modified. And I can agree with him, as you will find them here- they are not very useful.
It would have been cool to see it with the proper ammo though.
>>
I don't understand it, why would you make it pump action?

Make it semi automatic and it would be like a shotgun submachinegun and it would be cool as fuck
>>
>>29300696
In addition to this, the MAG-7 weighs 8.8 lbs in its original configuration. For comparison a Mossberg 590A1 with a 20" barrel weighs 7.25 lbs and an 18.5" PGO version weighs 5.75 lbs. There's no excuse for the MAG-7 weighing that much.
>>
>>29302572
1) the automatic action has to fit
2) the thing has a magazine capacity of 5
3) full auto fire is not a useful feature for a shotgun

I don't know much so bear with me here. When I was watching this video yesterday, I couldn't help but wonder if you could cut shells to the length you needed. I remember watching an IV8888 video where Barry was doing this and it seemed to work. Could it work with this gun?
>>

To be fair Ian explains the ammo is much more available in Europe.

I'm honestly in love with the profile of the stock, the curves and thin wrist are super attractive to me even though i know it would be super fragile.

Yes, you can cut the crimp off, cut down or substitute a shorter shotcup/wad, and recrimp. It's a hell of a lot of work for what you're getting out of it though. I personally do it for a teeny bit of extra capacity for 3 gun.

Also, cut shells (aka ghetto slugs) as done on IV8888 are a totally different thing and unrelated to what's going on here.
>>
>>29307984
>really they dont use regular 12 gauge?
Nigga because the grip would be xbox huge. Do you want to grip a 3" shotgun shell,magazine and a pistol grip?
>>
>>29307913
Personally?
"Pistol"? $350-600
PDW size: $500-700
Carbine size: $600-800
And mags aren't going to be cheap unless they make a conversion kit for saiga mags.

Though really if someone had the time and resources they could modify a saiga and the mags to use the mini shells

>waaahh i dont like ian!!!!

It's a terrible shotgun, if you have big hands it's okay but it's got a lot of sharp edges, it's heavy, and that fucking pump really does hurt your finger a lot if you take your finger off the trigger habitually. (good habit to have by the way, especially with other pump guns that have light triggers) For something that's supposedly concealable I don't see how it's good for that since it's so goddamn big and annoying. Ian is right though, it is a breeze to shoot, but that doesn't even begin to make up for it's other flaws. Ian didn't mention this in the video but in colder climates the pump sometimes sticks, or it did for me, and the five-round magazine is annoying as fuck to change in cold weather too.

About the big hands thing, anyone who can comfortably put their hands around the grip is also aware that they're bigger than most of the population. While it's nice to have things that work best in our barbarian paws I don't think anyone with some common sense can safely say, "yes, this is a gun anyone can use."

You guys need to just fucking deal with the fact that it's a shitty gun. I don't care how cool it is in some video game, the gun sucks and it's just an interesting novelty as far as I'm concerned.

The op-rod thing, as well as the open top action.

It's more or less like trying to extend the usage of the Garand past it's relevancy (really good rifle, but past WW2/Korea, it's terribly dated).
Yes, it's lighter, select-fire, and has the convenience of detachable box magazines, but by the time this was done, much better battle rifles and assault rifles could be made, for much cheaper, the AR-10 and AR-15 comes to mind.

I learnt from this thread the gun was featured in some version of CS.

Which I presume is why they defend it so ardently. I thought Ian was fairly reasonable in his presentation of the gun.

On the whole ammo avaliablility issue it isnt as bad as you might think. You can make your own shorter shotshells by reloading shells and trimming them down to suit. Not overly practical for everyone but still an option.

The AR-10 that was tested by the military against the M14 wasn't the same quality as the modern AR-15 design. IIRC they had some reliability issues and one of them blew up during testing.

I do agree that the whole op-rod and open top action are pretty major design flaws though. designing a gun with the gas system under the barrel seems like a bad idea altogether.
>>
>>29311147
Well yes, but the oprod was still retarded.

They used a different barrel than the one specified by Eugene Stoner. That's what blew up.
>>
>>29311238
>"barrel failure"

Actually it looks like it was an ammunition failure, of the round before the one that blew it up.
>>
>>29311300
can a round fire and cycle the action without the bullet leaving the barrel or would the operator have had to manually cycle the bolt?
>>
>>29311326

The gas port is almost by the muzzle, so it would not be able to unlock unless it got stuck after that point, which is highly unlikely. Most squibs never make it beyond a couple inches into the barrel.

>The AR-10 that was tested by the military against the M14 wasn't the same quality as the modern AR-15 design.
True, but the AR-10 while under Armalite became a pretty solid rifle, eventually.

>IIRC they had some reliability issues and one of them blew up during testing.
One of them had inexplicable been fitted with a barrel made out of aluminum. I figure it must have been accidentally left on from a test batch or something.

Worth noting is also that the Army Ordnance Board sabotaged the shit out of AR-15 testing to keep the M14, so I wouldn't be too surprised if there was foul play involved with the AR-10 as well.
It should be noted that the AR-15 would eventually succeed DESPITE the sabotage, so that speaks miles for how sound the design actually is.

>I do agree that the whole op-rod and open top action are pretty major design flaws though.
Yeah but it looks cool as hell, and it sounds awesome when you rack the bolt.

>designing a gun with the gas system under the barrel seems like a bad idea altogether.
Oh but not at all, friendo, the PKM and it's derivatives has the gas system under the barrel, and it works great.
It's basically an AKM turned upside down, chambered for 7.62x54mmR and feeding from a non-disintegrating belt.

DI (or, "gas expansion", if sperganon is around), I think is great, but I'm very fond of short-stroke gas-piston as well, it just fucking works so well (well, not on the AR-15).

>>29312116
>shitty export model of a gun
lel, butthurt CS fanboys and their special pleading
The MAG-7 export model only features a long barrel and a fixed stock, otherwise they're identical. Hell, the basic model doesn't even feature a stock at all, so it's better in one sense.

And they're REALLY not very good quality guns.
For practical purposes, I would much rather have an Ithaca 37 Stakeout or shortened down Remington 'Police folder', similar capacity but less bulk and superior reliability.

I couldn't honestly tell you, but the "DI" system of the AR-15 lends good potential for accuracy, there's not a whole lot of mass moving when cycling, compared to a big-ass piston on a long-stroke gun.

Short-stroke pistons are pretty modest in size, but an AR-15 setup is even more compact.

Every YouTube channel has the point where it goes to shit. I'm sad to say forgotten weapons has reached that point.

>>29312142
The fact that they bolted a stock and retard barrel on a gun meant to be used as a sidearm means that the concept has been ruined.

>still crying about "Ian shills"
Because he reviewed a truly terrible gun? Anon I owned one of these and sold it almost immediately after I shot it because it's completely worthless. I'm not an "Ian shill" for not liking the piece of shit, that's called having an informed opinion. Let me say this again because you have trouble reading: I actually owned one, it was terrible, not even worth converting to AOW or SBR because it is a terrible, terrible piece of junk.

>The fact that they bolted a stock and retard barrel on a gun meant to be used as a sidearm means that the concept has been ruined.
When you take a pistol carbine and shoulder it, it still works. It's not as good of a pistol or a rifle carbine but it still does a job at putting rounds down range and they're usually cheap enough and light enough to do it pretty damn well. This? It's massive, it's heavy as fuck, the only improvements given to it are a stock because it's basically an otherwise junk gun.

It's the equivalent of having a belt-fed gun with a bolt action. It's a funny novelty, beyond that it's a shit gun.

So its mechanically identical in terms of operation and production quality? And everything you said is a vacuous shitpost because you're upset that people aren't as mad about the mini-shell thing as you feel they should be? Good to know.

Sorry comerade, the only way I could ever trust your words is if you prove that A. You used the right ammo and B. Aren't one of the v-spam posters.
>>
>>29313617
As I said I already sold it, but if you're still, STILL hung up on the fucking ammo then frankly you're a fucking retard.

Neither Ian nor my own criticisms have anything to do with the ammo, and yes, I did use the correct ammo and yes, it cycled perfectly fine. It even cycled with hand-made hulls I cut down and crimped myself. Other people in this thread have stated the ammunition problem and the feed issues had nothing to do with any of the other criticisms, and even if they did it's from a US-perspective anyway so it would be relevant. You want to talk about "the correct ammo?" It's twenty times the cost of normal 12-gauge rounds, anything a US owner has that fires it better work flawlessly which this doesn't.

Fucking deal with the fact that this gun is complete fucking junk. It's worthless. Five round shotgun that's heavier than a Serbu Shorty or any number of modified pump guns or even purpose-built SBS that do the same job but better. All of them can use actual full-sized 12 gauge ammo, since ammunition is so goddamn important for you.

Do you even own guns anyway? I'm getting strong "my big brother has a Glock!" vibe from you.

See >>29300696, >>29300795, and >>29302671. The MAG-7 is shit even in its original configuration when compared to conventional shotguns. There's no way you're going to be using a gun that weighs just under 9 lbs as a sidearm outside of a video game.

This so much.
A non-NFA shorty does everything this thing does but much better, while smaller and much better handling.
In fact, with Aquila mini-shells it should have twice the capacity.

>A non-NFA shorty does everything this thing does but much better
Not quite, the MAG-7 is about 22" long. It would end up being an NFA item if you wanted it to do everything, but as pointed out earlier in the thread it would still end up shitting all over the MAG-7.

I love these shorties, and how they ain't NFA items.

You think we'll ever get to see them as made by Dominion Arms, with the detachable box magazines? I think that would be interesting (albeit less compact)
>>
>>29312535
The M14 uses the short stroke white gas system.

You must be thinking of the Garand which is long stroke.

So, I have a though.

get full length brass shells. cut them down to length needed to match the 60mm South African shells. Reload these brass shells until they crack. repeat.

Stop right there criminal scum. Don't waste brass shells on this piece of shit, it cycles fine with cut-down plastic hulls sealed with wax.

Make it a bullpup semi and specifically for mini-shells. Give it a canted mag and built in sig brace so it sits on the forearm like a bushmaster pistol. I think that would do nicely.

I understand perfectly why it didn't. So it could accommodate yet another shitty design decision made in the process of developing an abortion of a shotgun. And it -still- manages to have a grip that's as thick and comfortable to grip as a whale cock. How does this help your case at all?

If I remember correctly, plastic shells can only be reloaded 3-5 times before they're done, while brass shells can be reloaded an assload (I've never actually got an answer, most people apparently forget how many times they reloaded them long before they wear out). Most people would probably rather go with brass shells for reloading so they don't have to constantly be modifying new shells as the older ones wear out.

You get a Grizzly instead, it takes detachable 5rd mags (that are easier to find), but accepts regular off the shelf 12-gauge shells.
It's also lighter, smaller and easier to handle, the build quality is better too.

>>29321254
... so make an entirely different sort of weapon?

I think the MAG-7 is shit, but I think we could do something with the magazine

They do wear out but since you've already cut them down the hulls are good for a few more shots before you wind up with extracting just the brass. Honestly I think that's fine, a worn-out hull will just turn into a shitty slug, save the full brass for something that deserves it.
