SAS-12 mag Fed Questions

I Seen these super cheap for like $140 new. I have a couple questions regarding them. What chokes do these take and will they shoot steel shot?

Well just an update. I bought a couple..... fixed choke modified. They shoot steel shot. Test fire/Break in went well. No malfunctions. Ran 2 boxes through it. Even hit poa. For the money so far best new shotgun I have bought. I'd say it feels about like a new rem 870 express. About the same fit and finish as well. Stock isn't wood but the trigger guard and housing is metal so I'm gonna call that a wash.

Overall I'm impressed for the money.

Update. Been using it as a slug and buck gun. Got around 250-300 rounds through it. Seems solid. Good gun for the money for sure. No jamming problems with the ammo I'm making. All max loaded. Doesn't like light loaded stuff around 1145fps or less. Short cycles the bolt.

I see on the ad that they recommend using high brass ammo for break-in. Wonder if it will handle lighter stuff after a while. Be interesting to see how it does.

Holy wow that seems like a lot of gun for the price.... and it looks like you can get it for free if you buy the more expensive one? There has to be a catch somewhere....

It does take low brass fine. Atleast above 1200 fps loads. As a matter of fact mine has never seen high brass. I run all reloads mostly aa and sts hulls
