You ever had a 5 year old try to describe what they did at their friend's house? It's a LOT like this video.
This is like listening to a woman describe her day at work.
Man I love mine. I've had benelli, berretta, and browning. The only thing I can compare it to is a berretta even though it's inertia. I had 2 stove pipes shooting 1oz target koads when I first got it. I put a code black extended on it and shot 3 and 3 1/2 in it for the first year. I also didn't clean it the first year just to see what it would do. I didn't have any problems. Love that gun, it's a great feeling when you have a gun you can trust.
I bought my mm20 over the browning maxus 2. I am pretty happy with it.
I had to stop watching. I can't respect a shotgun review from a guy that calls shotgun shells bullets.
It’s ok, life harder when you’re stupid.
@@chrisakafrench You could work on that and life wouldn't be so tough. Best of luck!
@@davewalker5455 that you can, I’ll shoot my bullets, you can get baited and bitch in comment sections, while I make money on the video you watched 🥴🥴
@@chrisakafrench being a UA-cam host, it is to your advantage to not be a dick. Unsubbed
@@arisaka9963 i dont give a fuck lol
Haven't got a problem yet with a year of use. I used hevi shot brand cause that's all it liked. Kent doesn't cycle because of the hull. Love how easy it is to clean and how it shoots.
It is a shotgun. It shoots shotgun shells that use shot as the projectile.
Wow noted, I’ll be sure to remember this 😶
Yeah I’m pretty sure he was referring to when you said bullets like 6000 times..
@@BroChacho88 the bullets, yea
That may be his ejection issue. He’s using bullets instead of shotgun shells. 🤣
Not sure if I’m a little late but do you ever have a problem with just shooting 3inch shells? I have a pump gun that’s 3.5 and I’m looking to get a retay. I thought about just getting the 3 inch chamber but not sure if I’ll regret that in the field.
You should get 3.5 you’ll want it
Great review sure helps me with my decision to buy Retay been on the fence for a bit now with all kinds of manufacturers for a waterfowl setup
Shotgun shells not bullets my friend. Hevi-Shot shot shells also. Patterns of shot.
It goes in gun and goes boom. Bullet
@@chrisakafrench LOL that's hilarious 😂
I love mine.. I bought it used and the dude before me never cleaned it.. gotta get a gunsmith to take the choke out lol but other than that it’s the best shotgun I’ve ever owned
Any new news on the gun? Still holding up good?
I’d like to say thank you for your review. Not sure why people are so hung up on you saying bullets vs shells. It seems that’s all they took away from the video. I appreciate the review.
I'm a grade a troll bro, i say shit garner free comments and help with the algorithm lol
You need all the help you can get with the algorithm. Saying you get paid, you aren’t making hardly anything. Broke boy!
I bet they get really bent out of shape when we put a new bullet in our race car.
Use CLP on the rails inside the receiver to keep the shotgun ejecting as expected.
Chris, I had the same ejection issues with high powered loads, especially when the temp drops below 30. I did a video of the issue and the first attempt to fix. However, I still had the ejection issue and had to send the gun to Retay to get the issue fixed. They had to replace the ejector on the bolt. Here's my review. ua-cam.com/video/uWMz8aO2yO8/v-deo.html
I have the Air King. My only complaint is that if you hunt while wading, and have the butt stock slightly under water, it will fill up with water and the water is hard to get it back out without taking off the recoil pad and stock.
oooooof ill have to keep that in mind!
Submarine issue??
Just bought a new Masai Mara. Couldn't hit the barn door. I patterned it before making any change. It shot about 3" low. Broke it apart and found installed from factory the shim with the least adjustment. The suppled shim kit only contains shims that would make the gun shoot progressively lower. I need to go the other direction.
I've reached out to Retay, so far no response, a bit disappointing. Also disappointed in out of the box performance. In my opinion a quality shotgun out of the box should be close to 50-50 needing only minute adjustment for the individual.
Beneli’s are known for shooting low and like right I think.
But contact them on the website and via DM. They’ll get back to you!
@@chrisakafrench thanks but what do you mean by DM?
@@olegig5166 direct message. On social media platforms
Use CLP on the rails. A little oil keeps the inertia action humming.
:O
Jesus man, bullets??
Yes bullets.
Yeah dude. I'm British and even I don't say that! Love the gun, can't really get em this side of the water.....apart from the wood stocks. No sexy beasts here.
hello what drilling chokes are suitable for retay Masai mara? the same as benelli crio plus? please tell me which chokes are better for the closest distance cylinder of which manufacturer kicks patternmaster anaconda skeet briley?

i use the factory chokes, so i cant help you on that I'm sorry i can look into it though.
Since this fella is only interested in doing a half-ass review...the 12 gauge line uses the Masai-mara Marapro chokes exclusive to Retay. The 20 gauge uses Benelli Crio plus thread chokes.
Have had my retay Masai for a full season. Have tried tons different 3” and 3.5 without issue. Doesn’t like target loads all that much, get the odd stove pipe. I use the pattern master In mine and man does that get out there
I’ve been debating on getting a choke, but I’ll have to pattern my regular chokes and actually test them before I do that.
Why would you need bullets for a shotgun?????
It’s a gun it’s shooooooooots
Calls shotgun shells bullets, and then had to call retay to figure out how to take his gun apart…. Yea, next video 😅
U mad girl?
And no the call was to diagnose the problem which as I said was the extractor being put in backwards after cerakote, which was don’t by licensed gun smiths lmfao. GUN SMITHS YOU RETARD. 😂😂😂😂 Of course when I’m on the phone resolving an issue I’m going to ask how to resolve said issue. Man you yeeyees really are dumb.
Are you an established shooter/hunter?
Very
Cant use 3.5 shells with it or at least mine wont only 3 inch
1000 birds in one season??? That math almost don’t work. 2 or 3 seasons believable, but damn I need to hunt with you if that’s the case.
Ducks geese dove and pigeon. Wish it was all ducks
So basically you made a video about a gun saying it’s malfunctions where your fault?
I hope Retay sends you a Air King 3.5 inch model in tan. I would get it with a 26 inch barrel if you can. For duck blind use.
3.5 in tan would be the move
Wow!!! When did they upgrade the Air King to the Sky King?
@@MaPee1982 It was Air King all along and I messed up. My bad. Sorry.
Bullets??? They are called “shells” or “shotgun shells” when you keep calling them bullets, it makes you look like you have no idea what your talking about. Also you seem cocky and smug. Besides that, I like the shotgun.
L oh L
Retay masai mara 💪💪👍👍
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
There shells not bullets 😂
Bullet
It's they're not there. Isn't that ironic?
Good review bro!! Just picked up the Masai Mara 3 1/2, dark earth and Realtree timber combo, plus 30in barrel. It’s stupid nasty!! Plus I’m running the Jebs high voltage mid range choke!! Talk about reaching out and touchin em!!
I want a jebs choke so sad, I’m glad it runs good cause it damn sure looks good!
I got Jebs .690 mid range knowing that I already have the 30in barrel. It runs great!!
Oh yeah if you didn’t already know. The 3 1/2 Masai Mara doesn’t like light load 2 3/4 shell ‘s( clay target shells). Now granted it is a magnum caliber shotgun I wasn’t surprised. But Retay makes it clear on their website that the magnum shotgun’s don’t like them.
JEBs is the only way to go.
My .690 has killed more doves and ducks in the past 4 years than I could keep count of.
Your shooting bullets man that’s your problem
Yes bullets, lmfao.
The stock paint on mine is getting scraped very easily and the paint on my receiver is peeling anyone else have this problem?
I cerakoted mine, so I didn’t get to experience this. If I hear anything about it I’ll let you know!
This company won’t stand by their product. Cheap hydro dip started flaking and the company won’t take ownership. Steer clear and go with a more reputable brand.
Stop saying bullets. Makes you sound unintelligent when you're reviewing a shotgun.
Bullets lmao
Bullets yup
No thanks
lmfao
I bought a retay 20ga today 3/23/2022. Put a Carlson turkey tube in it. Shot the federal tss 7 shot and long beard Xr 9 shot both was good but the xr’s did shoot the best. 40 yards xr had 10 more bbs in it.
