In Russia, for some time, a hunting version of the Ks-23 called TOZ-123 was produced. Now the owners of the TOZ-123 cannot purchase factory cartridges for this gun and they have to equip the cartridges on their own using shells from a flare gun, which has the same caliber .

@@tomgilida4276 yes, we can. Almost any semi-auto shotguns and rifles (up to .50 bmg). We can buy a handgun, but handguns must be storaging only in shooting range
I'm no gun expert, but from my understanding the "barrikada" projectile was meant to penetrate light armored vehicles and completely destroy the engine block from up to 100m. So this gun is just a giant middle finger to anything down the barrel. Tarkov definitely did this gun justice (so did phantom forces which is a Roblox game lmao).
Insurgency Sandstorm also does just it justice cuz you can one tap body pretty much anyone within 100m, or within 200m to maybe 300m if you're running slug rounds. Weeeeell that's also provided that your aim and reaction times don't suck some off like mine do.

That slug was probably invented for the soldiers who were manning roadblocks in Syria back when ISIS was still strong. They would sometimes attack those with suicide bomber cars that were armored just enough to stop normal rifle rounds.
@@mattislindehag3065 this projectile was invented in USSR, much earlier isis. But then its produse was stopped, because it is too dangerous for "non-lethal" gun.
Fun stuff about this gun. It's designation is KS this stands for Karabin Spetsialniy or Special carbine. Yes, carbine. It has a russian round that is called Barrikada. This slug is intended to kill the engine blocks of cars at up to 100 meters. Also, for anybody not using freedom units. The slugs in a 6/4 gauge shotgun are around 23mm in diameter.
Its 6 gauge, but for some reasons russians called it 4 gauge.. Maybe they have an old prerevolution gauge system they dusted off as english gauge is not the only system for shotguns
0:16 about manual artillery, I explain that in order to reduce production costs, a shortened barrel was used 23 mm trunks from Remember, the KS 23 is not just called manual artillery in Russia.
FYI, the "gauge" is determined by how many round lead balls of a given diameter will it take to make a pound of weight (excluding the 410). For a 12 gauge it takes 12 round lead balls of the diameter of the bore to make a pound. For this gun it only takes four round balls to make a pound. That is to say it can shoot 1/4 pounders at you.
Reminder, this was designed specifically as a riot shotgun (entire built off of the NS-23, a 23x115mm anti-aircraft gun famous in the 1940s), and was made to take out engine blocks of any car you can find from about 250m. Sometimes the 4 guage seems like too much, but when you have a guy in a car and want to send a shrapnel spray of engine through his firewall, you know the gun to do it.
KS-23 is in the category of small-caliber artillery. This is due to the current GOST 28653-90, which says that a caliber of more than 20 mm is already considered small-caliber artillery.
That's 20mm or more. Not over 20mm. And it's a completely arbitrary designation, that's just what NATO uses. Also, a shotgun is a shotgun. Shotguns also well exceed the maximum bore diameter of .50 in the US but are allowed, because they are shotguns. It isn't a cannon just because it has a 23mm bore.
@justforever96 arbitrary or not, it's the designation right ? That's what the guy pointed out so why don't you just let us call it a Cannon and have fun.
Who TF cares. It's a rule that is in place to protect US government from its citizens and nothing more, been extended throughout NATO as part of Americas Grand plot for NWO. Suggest you pray American citizens stand up and protect their 2nd amendment right that the country was founded on before it's too late and Nazi Germany 2.0 takes over
I first heard of the KS-23 when I played the “Vorkuta” level in Call Of Duty: Black Ops. That was the moment i said “now this is a shotgun”. Besides that, UA-cam Videos for the KS-23 we’re basically nonexistent. Thanks Garand Thumb for FINALLY giving us a UA-cam Review of the KS-23.

Here to rep kjaskaar, who likely had to much anxiety to say anything in the video. Hes a tallented gun builder and put an insane amount of work into this. You guys should check out his channel, he has 2 videos about how he put his together from a civilian kit, making the furniture himself, and putting together the ammunition. A lot of crazy stuff went into this, for example the wads in his shells are plastic drink sample cups.
Follow up, I checked out his channel. New favorite. Even had the LWC sticker on his bench. Now excuse me while I spend the next (hopefully) few days binge watching that shit.
I remember watching the videos way back and marveling at all the stuff he MacGyvered to get it to work. The irritating thing for me is that I found the video from people shitting on him because none of them could grasp that the intro of part 2, that they watched as a clip, was a joke and not how he was actually making slugs.
In Tarkov, I actually thought 20 Gauge was bigger than 12 Gauge, so at least the toz had that going for itself. I was shocked to learn even thats not true xD
The KS-23 was designed in the 1970s for suppressing prison riots. It was created by TsNIITochMash, a key Soviet weapons developer, for the Ministry of Internal Affairs (MVD). The barrel for the KS-23 were made from 23 mm aircraft gun barrels that were rejected due to manufacturing flaws. These rejected barrels were deemed to be acceptable for the lower stress of firing slugs and less-lethal rounds, and thus were cut down in length for use as shotgun barrels. The KS-23 began to see use during the mid-1980s by several MVD forces. During the 1990s, research was made into improving the original design to make it usable in confined indoor areas. Two prototypes were proposed, the KS-23M and KS-23K, although only the M version saw use.

When you read wikipedia, pay attention to numbers in brackets like this [3]. Well, that claim doesn't have that bracketed number as it is unsourced. The claim itself travels from blog to blog and nobody bothers to reveal their sources. There are also a different version of that claim floating around. The other claim is, they are using same tools as for aircraft guns. The aircraft gun barrel has much thicker wall, and those walls are thinner to the end. Turning down and hand fitting every barrel to the specs would take a lot of time and effort. It's like, what if instead of going through hassle of repurposing failed Mosin barrels for TT-33, we used same tools to produce pistol barrels from the start? I know, mind blown! Then of course there are smooth bore versions that would be utterly non-sensical to produce from aircraft gun barrels.
This shotgun is for all damn purposes. Soo many different shells. From buckshots to the barrikada which is a solid steel slug to be used on the engine block of cars. Tear gas, rubber bullets, flash bang. And that wasn't enough! They designed the 36 mm Nasadka-6 and 82 mm Nasadka-12 muzzle mortar attachments so it can function as a handheld mini mortar, firing grenades...
The power of that 4 gauge slug round is amazing. Even with the oval barrel, the rifling appears to really be improving the track and performance of that slug round. That head shot damage was incredible. What a cannon.
The barrel isn't oval, the bore is just not centered, so one side has very thin walls, which would be a major problem with a high-power 23mm AA shell, but is fine with a low pressure shotgun shell.
@@thaknobodi makes you wonder how they ever produce straight barrels… I mean seriously a AA barrel is rather long and seems for that kind of visible defect they must really have old machine tools and druk workers
My buddy had an 8 gauge, and boy, at the time (15 yo/little experience), I thought that was one gnarly gun. I couldn't pitch for several games lol. Honestly, at this age, I, or rather my shoulder, have no interest in even entertaining the idea of shooting that gun lol.
These recent years I've seen a lot of guns that I never thought I'd find videos for. Guntoobers really have stepped it up. Mainly Herrera but others too, for a time since the loss of fpsrussia there wasn't a lot of crazy stuff

@@worldoftancraftSure, but also, remember back when his videos were viral? He was at the top of the world when nobody knew he was a straight up criminal. Had the access to the coolest uncommon weapon systems of that time.
Well, it's not quite easy to get factory ammo for it even in Russia. Reading through gun forums I found out that the owners of TOZ-123, for the most part, have to resort to refitting and reloading GSh-23 brass for that matter, and I think, if I remember it correctly, flare pistol casings of appropriate diameter. Also, KS-23 slug ammo is supposed to be used against vehicles, to be shot at engine area
Makes scence. Because even against a man in a armor that gun is overkill :) so, since antimaterial sniper rifles are a thing, why not add a shottie to the list 😁 tight urban conditions and all that...
It is almost impossible to get ammo for it in Russia, because it was produced in small quantities (several hundred copies for domestic consumers and 500 copies for export to the USA). And the most interesting thing is, according to the classification, this caliber is considered not small arms, but small-caliber artillery)
Just found this video. I made the brass for this shotgun at RCC before they went bankrupt. One of my favorite projects to design, program, and machine!
I did a little research on this shotgun after seeing it for the first time in Insurgency. The really cool thing about it isn't just the massive gauge, but its versatility. They made all sorts of specialized and custom rounds for it for specific situations. My favorite was the grappling hook launcher round and attachment.
A couple fun facts. You can shoot a grappling hook from this thing with a special device attached to the muzzle (there's a range of these devices for different purposes). It has a magazine-fed bullpup version.
This is my new favourite sounding gun, everything about it the 40mm thwoomp when you load a round, the deep thud of the shot and the ping from chambering a shell it’s perfect
I own a 4 guage for home defense, just as the founding fathers intended. On a serious note this might be the shotgun that gets me into learning how to make my own ammo.
@El Cactuar Probably won’t kill ya, though. My policy on grammar is everyone should learn it, but the time for that was in school. They probably won’t change from a UA-cam comment.
love the freerange body builders, I hope they make another appearance. it's insane that shotgun is so powerful the mic blows out and doesn't do the sound justice
I observed the same thing in the review of one air rifle in caliber 7.62mm. There, in slow motion, an expansive bullet simply tears off the pigeon's head and neck to the torso ... that is, literally the carcass remains motionless on the tree, and the massive neck with the head anti-materialize 🙃
Every time I see a shotgun video in a lower Guage the thought that someday someone is going to make a shotgun that uses 1 Guage puntgun shells always enters my mind
Hello! Sorry, I'm using a translator. I like watching your videos. Used KS-23 when he served in the police. The carbine is good, but very capricious. The most relish, when the cartridge with gas in the barrel rises with a stake, and tears of joy begin to flow like a waterfall))). Also, the name of the rubber bullet for the cartridge 23 * 81 "Volna-R" "Hi" was amused. Thank you for your hard work.
Developed for the police. To reduce the cost of production, it was decided to use 23-millimeter barrels from aircraft guns. The KS-23 is a special police carbine. KS-23 has 13 types of ammunition. The range of destruction with various ammunition is from 10 to 200 meters. There are 4 types of this gun: KS-23 (classic version), KS-23M (short version), KS-23K (automatic bullpup system) and civilian version - "Drake" ("Селезень").
that thing was designed for crowd control, it has a wide range of ammo ranging from traumatic rubber bullets and CS or CN gas to a steel bullet intended to stop motor vehicles by damaging the engine. it's overall overkill but damn those were the times. it's a total bitch to shoot, and is not intented as a regular hunting/sporting shotgun. was pretty cool seeing you get your hands on one, they're rare af привет из России!
The clear ballistic test says a lot. That slug held its ass. Would like to see multiple test dummies lined up or see a clear test with a longer mold. The KS 23 is amazing
This shotgun basically does everything shotguns in 80s action movies could do, the things that you then spent your adult life learning were just movie myths.
This Soviet shotgun have a lot of different ammo. For example explosive, flash stun, rounds with gas, rubber bullets, very big shot, bullet, buckshot. This gun also have rifled barrel. And standard model have longer barrel and stock
This shotgun a truly fascinating piece of equipment as in the barrel was originally gonna be part of AA flak guns, to much pressure but took lower caliber rounds very well, or sometimes low small yield grenades.
This pops up in my mind every now and then and I come back to watch this video. This time it's because I started listening to the Horus Heresy audiobooks -> bolter guns -> 4 gauge shotgun -> Garand thumb's video

As for China and the US, it seems to me like the Chinese firearms made for export are generally poorly made shit (I feel this has been fairly well verified) but the firearms for their own military are fairly decent, if indeed produced at a much lower price point than in the west (which all makes sense). The United States actually makes a HUGE amount of COMPLETE shit guns, but those are just for us trigger happy gun-bunnies to play with, professionals (LE/Mil) don't use that crap (just like China). Hope this helps!
Reminder that the M90 shotgun used to obliterate Sangheili energy shields was only an 8 gauge magnum. Given recent events.. we need a mass production 4 gauge weapon system.
Given recent events - perhaps we'll be buying them from the local Farmers, once they've used them to knock down a tree or two. The things that slug would do to an engine block - surprised it hasn't taken off in the "Cash in Transit" field.
From what I know, there is a limited civilian version of ks-23 called TOZ-123 "Selezen' 4" (ТОЗ-123 "Селезень 4"), and it has no rifling in the barrel. Therefore, barrel has 26mm diameter (compare to 23mm rifled service barrel). I read from owners that it's pain in a** to handload because you need to find used AA shells and cut it. If we are talking about service cartridges, I believe they are made of cardboard, and it's kinda ironic because not that many selezens were produced and therefore a few people own it, and even fewer ever tried original factory ammo.

In Russia, for some time, a hunting version of the Ks-23 called TOZ-123 was produced. Now the owners of the TOZ-123 cannot purchase factory cartridges for this gun and they have to equip the cartridges on their own using shells from a flare gun, which has the same caliber .

I'm no gun expert, but from my understanding the "barrikada" projectile was meant to penetrate light armored vehicles and completely destroy the engine block from up to 100m. So this gun is just a giant middle finger to anything down the barrel. Tarkov definitely did this gun justice (so did phantom forces which is a Roblox game lmao).
Insurgency Sandstorm also does just it justice cuz you can one tap body pretty much anyone within 100m, or within 200m to maybe 300m if you're running slug rounds. Weeeeell that's also provided that your aim and reaction times don't suck some off like mine do.

Gauge is a unit of measurement derived by how many lead balls of the bores size it takes to make 1 lb.
4 23mm lead balls = 1 lb.
0:16 about manual artillery, I explain that in order to reduce production costs, a shortened barrel was used 23 mm trunks from Remember, the KS 23 is not just called manual artillery in Russia.
FYI, the "gauge" is determined by how many round lead balls of a given diameter will it take to make a pound of weight (excluding the 410). For a 12 gauge it takes 12 round lead balls of the diameter of the bore to make a pound.
For this gun it only takes four round balls to make a pound. That is to say it can shoot 1/4 pounders at you.
with cheese?
Except a 23mm bore is 6.278 gauge, not 4, so its not shooting spherical quarter pounders.

Reminder, this was designed specifically as a riot shotgun (entire built off of the NS-23, a 23x115mm anti-aircraft gun famous in the 1940s), and was made to take out engine blocks of any car you can find from about 250m.
Sometimes the 4 guage seems like too much, but when you have a guy in a car and want to send a shrapnel spray of engine through his firewall, you know the gun to do it.

Such a damn good video, definatly in my top 10 Garand Thumbs of all time
KS-23 is in the category of small-caliber artillery. This is due to the current GOST 28653-90, which says that a caliber of more than 20 mm is already considered small-caliber artillery.
Check the 2018 version
That's 20mm or more. Not over 20mm. And it's a completely arbitrary designation, that's just what NATO uses. Also, a shotgun is a shotgun. Shotguns also well exceed the maximum bore diameter of .50 in the US but are allowed, because they are shotguns. It isn't a cannon just because it has a 23mm bore.
@justforever96 arbitrary or not, it's the designation right ? That's what the guy pointed out so why don't you just let us call it a Cannon and have fun.

The KS-23 was designed in the 1970s for suppressing prison riots. It was created by TsNIITochMash, a key Soviet weapons developer, for the Ministry of Internal Affairs (MVD). The barrel for the KS-23 were made from 23 mm aircraft gun barrels that were rejected due to manufacturing flaws. These rejected barrels were deemed to be acceptable for the lower stress of firing slugs and less-lethal rounds, and thus were cut down in length for use as shotgun barrels. The KS-23 began to see use during the mid-1980s by several MVD forces. During the 1990s, research was made into improving the original design to make it usable in confined indoor areas. Two prototypes were proposed, the KS-23M and KS-23K, although only the M version saw use.
So the KS-23 is practically like a handheld aircraft gun...

When you read wikipedia, pay attention to numbers in brackets like this [3]. Well, that claim doesn't have that bracketed number as it is unsourced. The claim itself travels from blog to blog and nobody bothers to reveal their sources.
There are also a different version of that claim floating around. The other claim is, they are using same tools as for aircraft guns. The aircraft gun barrel has much thicker wall, and those walls are thinner to the end. Turning down and hand fitting every barrel to the specs would take a lot of time and effort.
It's like, what if instead of going through hassle of repurposing failed Mosin barrels for TT-33, we used same tools to produce pistol barrels from the start? I know, mind blown!
Then of course there are smooth bore versions that would be utterly non-sensical to produce from aircraft gun barrels.

The power of that 4 gauge slug round is amazing. Even with the oval barrel, the rifling appears to really be improving the track and performance of that slug round. That head shot damage was incredible. What a cannon.
The barrel isn't oval, the bore is just not centered, so one side has very thin walls, which would be a major problem with a high-power 23mm AA shell, but is fine with a low pressure shotgun shell.
The hole is round, but the external material diameter is off center only.

Hi (sorry for my bed ingleesh)
I fired this in gun kizlyar in 2005, it is very stiff to shoot with slugs and buckshot! A real monster
Developed for the police. To reduce the cost of production, it was decided to use 23-millimeter barrels from aircraft guns.
The KS-23 is a special police carbine.
KS-23 has 13 types of ammunition. The range of destruction with various ammunition is from 10 to 200 meters.
There are 4 types of this gun: KS-23 (classic version), KS-23M (short version), KS-23K (automatic bullpup system) and civilian version - "Drake" ("Селезень").
that thing was designed for crowd control, it has a wide range of ammo ranging from traumatic rubber bullets and CS or CN gas to a steel bullet intended to stop motor vehicles by damaging the engine. it's overall overkill but damn those were the times. it's a total bitch to shoot, and is not intented as a regular hunting/sporting shotgun. was pretty cool seeing you get your hands on one, they're rare af

This pops up in my mind every now and then and I come back to watch this video. This time it's because I started listening to the Horus Heresy audiobooks -> bolter guns -> 4 gauge shotgun -> Garand thumb's video
"Nah nah, your honor. This is only for home defe-"
"YOU VAPORIZED. THE INTRUDER'S SKULL. BEFORE HE WALKED THROUGH THE DOOR."
" it was a sick shot though"
And the other guy through the next 6 houses
“Let the records show, it was a pretty sick shot.”
"Some ruffians tries to ENTER MY HOUSE, your Honor"

@@Flesh_Wizard git gud
It’s insane to see Garand Thumb actually spooked by a gun.
What song was it at the intro?

4 "guage" is pretty big and scary, but have you ever heard of the .950 jdj? I'll give you a link to the video.

the image quality of these videos is getting so good they look like actual movies
Cinematic color grading does wonders.
7:56 *imagine having a gun with the shell ejection so loud it did a garand ping*
the shell didnt eject there. you have to pump it for ejection
And it pings because its a big ass metal case, the real shells are different
Soon as i saw this thing i knew it had to be my boy Kjaskaar. Absolute legend, i was worried he had died in some sort of exotic testing incident
2:23 face reveal
I knew it too, after Garand Thumb commented on their video. Been waiting for this video since then.
@@Bigbigpoopi He had shown his face before.-
@@Bigbigpoopi 💩
do you mean that stuff with thai hookers?
I remember taking hunter safety in the 80’s when I was about 12 and one of the instructors showed us a 4 gauge shell. It was insane.
I just spent the last 6 months trying to get one of these and now I'm on a watchlist.
It made me really sad when he said, "I made the shotgun. It's a piece of shit"
This is literally the sickest gun I've ever seen
But he isn't joking, it really is a piece of shit and he knows it. Being large doesn't make it good.
Does look fun though.
@@distalradius8146 shut up POG
@@distalradius8146 Most people say to everything from Russia or China that it's a piece of sht. No matter if it's actually good and high quality or even better than anything from western countries. If it's from there people will always say it's sht. If this was a US made gun all of those morons would say oMg It'S aWeSoMe. Guaranteed 100%
@@weallbrothersandsisters Yeah but Russia is also known for producing some EXCELLENT weapons systems which are employed all over the world and I have a huge amount of respect for the ones that weren't made from junkyard trash rejected parts in order to keep some mid-level manager (or whoever was responsible for those barrels) out of the gulag. As for China and the US, it seems to me like the Chinese firearms made for export are generally poorly made shit (I feel this has been fairly well verified) but the firearms for their own military are fairly decent, if indeed produced at a much lower price point than in the west (which all makes sense). The United States actually makes a HUGE amount of COMPLETE shit guns, but those are just for us trigger happy gun-bunnies to play with, professionals (LE/Mil) don't use that crap (just like China). Hope this helps!
If you’ve ever screamed “fucking rats!” While getting shot by the ks23 in factory, go ahead and hit that subscribe button
I dont get it could you please explain?
Tarkov?
@Elodie Channel thank you very much!
Reminder that the M90 shotgun used to obliterate Sangheili energy shields was only an 8 gauge magnum. Given recent events.. we need a mass production 4 gauge weapon system.
Was gonna comment this, the M90 is a two shot kill at close range…so would the 4 gauge KS23 be an instakill🤔🤔
A company is also planning to mass produce full working replicas of the m90s
@@williamkuzio5162 if halos true to life only from 10 feet away
you need 4 gauge shells to shoot chinese balloons...?
Given recent events - perhaps we'll be buying them from the local Farmers, once they've used them to knock down a tree or two. The things that slug would do to an engine block - surprised it hasn't taken off in the "Cash in Transit" field.
11:26 amazing editing
8 gauge is still made and commercially available. Actually used in steel factories.
What for?
8 guage*

I absolutely LOVE the sound brass makes when going out of the chamber
like a smol garand ping
"Don't worry. It's just a 23mm riot gun."
The riot gun:
Well, you don’t want to start a riot when you see that weapon, do you? So it works.
It was made for destroying motor blocks of fleeing trucks or trucks trying to break through a blockade. So this makes a little more sense.
From what I know, there is a limited civilian version of ks-23 called TOZ-123 "Selezen' 4" (ТОЗ-123 "Селезень 4"), and it has no rifling in the barrel. Therefore, barrel has 26mm diameter (compare to 23mm rifled service barrel). I read from owners that it's pain in a** to handload because you need to find used AA shells and cut it. If we are talking about service cartridges, I believe they are made of cardboard, and it's kinda ironic because not that many selezens were produced and therefore a few people own it, and even fewer ever tried original factory ammo.
This one was converted from a TOZ by kjaskaar
Sêlêzênj.
@@gundude82 I wonder where "4 guage" rifled barrel came from because I don't think it was produced in russia.
@@the_machine966 They're rejected AA gun barrels made in russia
It kind of looks like a scaled up Lego gun, and that just adds to it's awesomeness. 1000gr slug is insane.
Now imagine this monster lobbing dummy 40mm rifle grenades, because it was intended to have a thread-on can for extended riot control capabilities.
Yeah lol the 1000gr slug is basically a 700 nitro elephant rifle😅
Except the elephant rifle is going much faster.
One little fact - this shotgun was actually really considered to be used as a sniper rifle.
with a round that big? it's basically a modernized musket
It's a semi complicated toob
Granade launcher
It’s not a shot gun it’s considered a rifle by the Russian government
So technically it could fire a .50 BMG bullet with no problem right?
"There's not a head in there anymore". Autopsy Gold ! Great vid and fun
4 Gauge are way above average AND have a nice personality they always greet people nicely and send sooo much love towards them🥰
4 guage*
just proves that 4 really is enough
