Panzer Arms Turknelli Torture Test (Part 1 of 2)

Published 2023-09-29
Hey there folks,
Took the Panzer Arms Turknelli out and ran it. It absolutely does run but watch the video for the unexpected and rather unfortunate events that show the difference between a Turknelli and an actual Benelli M4. This is part 1 of 2 because I feel that two things happened, wrong ammunition (FPS related) and the failure that is in the video. The one take away is that the functionality is superb for a budget priced shotgun.
Kind Regards,
The Hippie Gunner

    I dont understand why people buy a combat shotgun and try to use weak loads. Its not a pump or a bird gun use full power loads and the shotgun will run like its suppose to.

    First video of yours I've watched. Watched for the torture test; subscribed because I like your sense of humor. Plus, you didn't let the broken stock cancel the test. Going to watch part 2 now.

    I have an 11-87 police and I used to have a Bretta 1201FP and neither would run anything below 1200FPS. That's just par for the course on semi-auto shotguns from what I hear. I also have a 11-87 20ga youth and it won't run cheap stuff very well either. I'm pretty impressed with how your Panzer ran. I haven't seen any of the Turknellies do that well.

    What’s your opinion on a stock to get for it? I was gonna get the collapsed one from panzer but not after seeing that breakdown
  • @ibannymous
    I would drill and drive a roll pin through the tube and stock together in the open position. Just find a spot that doesn't interfere with the action in any way. That way you are GTG and can salvage that Sulun stock.
  • I really want the panzer but i am worried about the reliability and what ammo to get. Do you think the "Rio High velocity 2-3/4...1-1/4oz...#8 shot with 1330 fps" would be good for the gun?

    There's a set screw in the stock... It needs to be adjusted!!! You can tighten it all the way down and make it a fixed stock... You can put some locktite on the screw and set it to the position, where it will be adjustable ALL THE TIME (you must locktite it !!) If you don't... You will eventually loose the set screw and think the stock is broken 🤦‍♂️( go to home Depot and spend . 55 cents for another) This isn't rocket science... Idk why Soo many don't understand, how the stock works. I have thousands through my akas s4 ( same as the panzor) It's not the stocks fault... It was yours 🤷‍♂️ Change the stock spring... If you want to shoot birds shot. Even the "real" Benelli needs a spring change, to shoot brid shot... Who the hell wants to shoot birds shot, out of a defensive shotgun 🤦‍♂️ But ... You can if you want... You just can't be ignorant about your equipment and blame it, when it doesn't work, when its your own fault 🙄 I That said... I appreciate the video and gave you a 👍

    That is not a heat gun. A heat gun is a like an industrial hair dryer type device used to heat up material or an object. The device you have there is an infrared thermometer. These tools have names for a reason please use them correctly. Imagine you told your buddy "Don't forget to bring your heat gun to the range tomorrow" and he brings an actual heat gun. Video ruined. Glen tock it pretty hard and spiraled in a deep depression. He started free basing Tylenol in cheap motels with +++ size escorts eventually taking his own life using a Harbor Freight extension cord. This tragedy can be avoided. I trust you will make better decisions in the future. For Glen.
  • Looks like when you’re weak shoulder, the shotgun tends to have malfunctions?.

    Appreciate the review, buy yourself a Beretta A300 Patrol. I’ve run Federal Flitecontrol Low Recoil 00 buck, velocity @ 1145 and it runs 100% mine shoots everything 100%
  • @josephnai7030
    I ran into the same issue with the collapsible stock on my panzer m4
  • @BretShooter
    1180 fps AND 1oz vs 1200 and up 1-1/8oz loads. It isn’t just the velocity difference.
