You cannot legally buy them from retailers, as far as I know, but I designed and built mine for around $2,700 total. This includes one fully-automatic AA-12, one magazine, and a set of iron sights I attached to the gun. It was a really fun project I did throughout last summer and I'd recommend it if you are willing to spend around $3,000 and about 200 hours of work to design it and build it.
Contrary to the YouTube videos, it is NOT a Russian machine-shotgun, but was originally developed in Tennessee, USA, and is now owned by MPS, Inc. Since June 19, 1986, you cannot legally build machine guns in the United States to enter civilian markets, nor can you import machine guns made after this date to the United States for consumer use (both of these clauses do not apply to military or government contracts). The Atchisson Automatic 12-gauge, or AA-12, originally fired on the open-bolt, at a sustained rate of 300-rounds per minute. The MSRP on this weapon, when sellable, was $700. There are only 22 known to still exist, and it is doubtful that you will find one for sale now.
You cannot purchase an AA12 shotgun you must join the military to receive an AA12
The AA12 has a 8 round magazine.
Yes, The Auto Assault-12 (AA-12) (originally designed and known as the Atchisson Assault Shotgun) is a shotgun developed in 1972 by Maxwell Atchisson.
As with any shotgun firing shotshells, you're only going to have an effective range of about 100 metres. Shotguns are very close range weapons.
Unfortunately you cannot unless you have a class 3 firearms license. Also as of the moment they will only sale to Military and Police.
They cost what you pay for them.
