I can’t disagree. I own 2 V3s and have converted both. One to a competition gun, 10+1 rounds. The other was a 28” barrel that I swapped out with an 18.5” barrel and a +3 mag tube. I can actually get 7 rounds in the tube depending on the ammo manufacturer. It’s very similar to the Tactical version. Haven’t been able to get a Tac-13 just yet but it’s on the list. Thanks for the video!
I would advise to not modify your brace in any way, specially adding tape to make it sturdier the ATF could consider it a stock and that has happened before.
It's a shame that remington went bankrupt right at the time they started making this firearm. It's literally a poor mans benelli m4 entry. The gas system and trigger group are almost identical to a benelli m4. Major differences being the shell lifter and the recoil spring system which in my opinion is better designed than the benelli.
Wasn’t even remingtons fault that they went bankrupt either. Corrupt politicians passing garbage legislation allowing bereaved relatives of a tragedy the permission to sue a company for actions an individual took with thier product.
Thank you for the video Cianci. Just one word, I would say be cautious doing anything to an arm brace with concerns for what the law concerning these braces might think.
Dude, as others have said. Do not modify your brace. If you are not shooting with the brace "mostly as it's intended purpose" you run the risk of it being termed a short barrelled shotgun, rather than a firearm with an arm brace. Matters to the law ...
Good video. I have this , and basically in the same configuration. I have to disagree about the birds head grip though. I can shoot mine pretty darn accurately from the hip.
Your assertion that the birds head grip is a novelty item caught my eye, since most people who have used weapons like this agree that the “pistol grip” configuration is a poor choice, putting too much stress on the wrist. This includes the FBI and Secret Service, who use the birds head grip on their witness protection guns like this.
DAMN!!!! $1500!!!! I bought my last year and only paid $699. It's mostly been sitting in it's box and I finally decided to put a brace on it. Also DO NOT MODIFY THE BRACE IN ANY WAY! All and all nice set up and gave me some ideas.
Purchased an over the counter NEW one at Gander RV in Wichita, Kansas for $830.00 with a $100 gift card included. 100% reliable with all 2 3/4" & 3" loads of every kind and variety, without even a hiccup when mixing up those rounds.
You gave a most informative video on the rem v3 tactical model 4 days I bought v3 field pro 22 inch barrel with 3 chokes same type finish as the tactical. Great video. CARMINE ZAMBROTTO. Have a great day.
$1500 is crazy dude, I have been looking for 8 months and my local ffl just got a new one in and I got it for $830 today, remington said theyre back in production and will be for order around September ish
Thanks for the detailed video. I'm a fellow UA-camr and a new subscriber to your channel. One thing, there is a very effective technique of shooting the bird-head grip that many of us have mastered. It allowed us to quickly aim the weapon using the bead sight and shot it on par with a full buttstock. This technique tames the recoil of this beast in it's original configuration.
If I was getting a home defense specific shotgun this would be perfect but me personally I like 28” traditional shotguns regardless that is a beautiful and very effective home defense piece
Bird head I thought it was called a birds neck stock but I see vids all over of people shooting them just fine from above the hip and it seems like it’s better than having the full brunt of 00 buck hitting you in the shoulder but that’s me
I bought the brace, but it defeats the real advantage of the Tac 13 so I removed it and went back to the factory birds head. This firearm has very low recoil even in the birds head configuration. You need to check out Norman Smith on UA-cam shooting his Tac 13 as I shoot mine loaded with Federal Flight Control Buckshot at 25 yards and you will not describe the weapon as a novelty item. The arm brace takes away your ability to put the weapon into fast deployment in a vehicle or in the tight confines as a home defense weapon. Mine is fitted with a Baldr Pro high intensity green laser/weapon light with blinding strobe. I carry mine in a custom made narrow closed top leather covered box mounted on the right side of the center console of my supercharged Chrysler 300S. It does not interfere with the passenger legroom and is as quick and easy to get into play as the 9MM pistol in my glove compartment. It is also legal to carry loaded in that mode. With the brace installed it must be carried unloaded in a car or truck passenger compartment defeating the purpose of having it!
I definitely agree, much handier with the birds head grip. Why would the brace being installed lead to it having to be unloaded in a vehicle. From my understanding on a “firearm” the brace doesn’t change the weapon’s classification.
@@TK-zw3dw In most states the law says a loaded pistol must be inside a closed compartment( does not have to be locked). That means the Tac13 at 26 inches on total length could be carried inside a narrow 27 inch long flip top box. I built one and mounted it against the right side of the console of my Chrysler 300S . I'm building another to fit next to the console of my truck. That allows it to be carried legally as it is classified as a pistol. I keep mine loaded with 6 Federal flight control 00 Buckshot. I can't imagine any other pistol that could be any more lethal to defend myself with.
A duck? It looks like something out of a Blade Runner movie! Like something Deckard would carry! Too bad it isn't 20 gauge. I will start looking for one! good video Cianci!
So when I occasionally shoulder it, I can't get a line of sight because my eye is up higher than the front bead. For example, while aiming at the torso on the paper target, I hit the head. I saw you put a red dot on, but I really don't want red dot. They make sights that go on the rib of the barrel, but I don't think they would be high enough. Any other ideas?
Great video. Thanks. I'm interested in the Tac 13. How reliable has it been? The Standard Mfg. SKO Mini looks good too. What are your thoughts on it? Thanks again.
I've been looking for 8 months too, my local just got a brand new one in and saved it for me specifically and I got it for $830, remington said theyre back in production and you can expect them to show up for order in September or October
No especially with the sb tactical brace, they have a letter from the atf stating that their braces do not count as modifying the firearm into a sbs. But what he did with the tape is considered modifying the product from its original intent to be a brace and now is intended to be a stock.
You are ABSOLUTELY wrong about the birds head grip. They brought that style back because it works much better than the angle of the style pistol grip of the past few decades. Research the physics of the 2 grips on a human wrist. Especially with 12ga 00 buck or slugs.
We are well aware of the physics on the wrist. As I'm sure we have put more rounds down range that you have. Pistol grip shotguns, birdshead grip, etc. In a true sense of training that birdsheads grip still sucks...

@@ItzCee... what did you teach at Bragg 7 yrs ago. By the way your tone explains alot. The old enough comment simply meant that you ain't old enough to have shot more rounds than I have.
I believe your brace alteration has made you a felon....... Just because it fits, doesn't mean it's legal. You illegally made a shouldered shotgun- NOT what was the original intent of the gun at the time of production.
Hey my dude, polite suggestion, take this video down immediately. I’m a prior ATF compliance officer for a manufacturer and you have 100% made an NFA item here. The catch is that we’re all used to including buffer tubes in OAL measurements because it’s necessary for operation on an AR pistol, but it is not necessary on these “firearms” so it’s an “accessory” and does not contribute to overall length. Measure your tax-13 from the tip of the muzzle strait back as far as the rear corner of the vertical pistol grip, and it’s gonna be less than 26”, making this an AOW. It’s a $5 stamp instead of a $200 stamp for an SBS, but it’s still the same felony charge. There was a shop that got yoked up over this for selling CZ scorpions with folding braces and vertical fore grips as “firearms” but they wound up being AOW or SBR’s when the ATF found out about them. SB tactical should never have made/sold these braces.
100% illegal SBR build. Brace is not required for this firearm to function and you've added some shorter more vertical hand rip reducing the over all firearm length bellow 26 inches. Grip is required for firearm to properly be used and function therefore its considered as a measurable part of firearm that is 26 inches of of longer not to be considered an SBR. Brace is a luxury item and adds nothing to the function or SBR regulation act.
@@ItzCee... That makes no sense. What u said is same as saying, for an example: You do know that muzzle brake is made for a firearm? Is it necessary for a firearm to function? Not at all. Its also not a valid feature when measuring ATF requirements for legal sbr build, unless is permanently attached to a firearm. Is your brace permanently attached to your firearm? Meaning pinned and welded?

What adapter did you use for that arm brace? Looks like they only sells the brace but not the whole conversion kit! Thanks. Awesome build by the way!!

Ya. Try and find the Benelli for that now. Those prices are jacked way up too
It is basically a short barreled benelli m4. The gas system is identical to benelli's Argo system.
That's beautiful
Can you clean the gun without taking pistol grip off?
Needs a vertical fore grip and a salvo 12 suppressor.
Putting a vertical grip on this would be asking for trouble.
Has no mounts for vertical grip. Also bone stock version doesn’t have threaded choke.
