Komrad 12 First Shots

These are my first shots with the Komrad 12 and my first impressions after shooting it. The Komrad 12 is made by Kalashnikov USA and is produced inside of the United States of America. The Komrad 12 is non NFA firearm that avoids a specific classification in United States (federal) law and can be purchased from a normal dealer like any other gun. It is easy to mistake the Komrad for a shotgun as it is a smooth bore firearm that is chambered for the 12 gauge shell. Nevertheless, it is not a shotgun under federal law.

The Komrad is a 12 GA semi-automatic compact barreled firearm with the Kalashnikov operating system similar to the Russian Saiga 12. This is a very versatile & short Tactical 12 firearm with a host of awesome features!! The Komrad will accept 2.75” and 3” shells and works best with shot shells of 1330 FPS or higher. This unit also has an adjustable gas system for hi and lower power loads and it a little Boomstick with a big punch! The The Komrad has a SB Tactical SBA3 pistol brace, adjustable pistol grip, tri-rail forend, vertical forward grip, standard side mounted optics rail and a threaded muzzle nut. The barrel is threaded so you can add your favorite Muzzle device to finish off the package. Total length of the firearms comes to 31.5”. Most Saiga 12 accessories will work on the Komrad including magazines and drums.
