One statistic, perhaps untrue, is that one out of 12 people in the world has a gun. The question, at least to us at Sourasky Arms International, has always been - how do we arm the other 11? Many of the underprivileged people of the world have often lacked access to useful tools of self-defense. To partly solve this problem, Souraski Arms International had marketed and sold the SAI Stanley and other similar arms, but the problem - for many people living in restrictive legal environments - remained that they could not possibly possess SAI products legally. Further the SAI Stanley and SAI Drill, being fully-automatic weapons, had some difficulties filling the niche of the household hunting longarm, both due to the ammunition costs and the inherent difficulties of hunting with a 9mm submachinegun or a .308 automatic rifle.

In light of this, Sourasky Arms International has given the world something yet simpler to shoot, maintain, and operate. The SAI El Pumpo (nicknamed by some security consultants in the Persian Gulf who were involved in the initial user testing of the product) is a full-length pump-action shotgun, capable of being used both to hunt large and small game, to compete in a range of shooting sports, and, if necessary, to defend one’s households against the kind of predator that doesn’t stay in your yard - but gets in through the window.

The SAI-12 El Pumpo, sharing some design features with common military rifles, boasts simple ergonomics. With no disconnector, and an ammunition capacity of 6+1 rounds, it can be used to dump its entire payload into a target with blistering speed, and if for some reason the buttstock suffers a sharp impact - let’s just say it’s made out of a cheap, but very sturdy polymer. For emergencies, it is also equipped with a bayonet lug.

(It is possible to insert a magazine limiter tube when hunting if your locale limits hunting a to a certain magazine capacity, and obviously the SAI-12 can be made, if your legal environment is restrictive, to hold less than the standard number of rounds. If this happens we do express our condolences and will help you comply with the law to the best of our ability).

In case you have not noticed the obvious, the SAI-12 is cheap. Do you perhaps feel the need to stock every room in your house with guns, to grab one in an emergency? Looking for a crate of shotguns to arm your friends when it is go time? Look no further.

Unlike any weapon presented by SAI before, the SAI-12 truly is a gun for all seasons.

Looking to bring home pheasant to feed your family? Load the SAI-12 with buckshot.

Venison? Well, they do call it buckshot for a reason.

Home invaders climbing in your window? Grab the SAI-12

Jackbooted thugs kicking down your door? Kick back seven times as hard - with the SAI-12.

SAI-12B Boxer pump-action shotgun
Image

Barrel length: 389.75mm
Overal length: 661.40mm
Ammunition capacity: 5+1
Caliber: 12 gauge, 14 gauge, 20 gauge, other upon request
Weight (empty): 2.4 kg
MSRP: $125

Let's be honest with each other. The world is a dangerous place. Bad things happen to good people – people like yourself. Orphanleggers and terrorists, robbers and rapists all walk the land – and it's never possible to know when they might strike. You might hope that it'll happen when you're in your home – but it might not. A carjacker at your gas station or a screwdriver-armed terrorist at your office are as likely as a burglar in your home.

And so, we at Sourasky Arms International have conceived of an affordable, compact shotgun for the working-class man – or for anyone who feels just one gun is not enough to protect themselves, but can't afford the topmost bespoke gear. Besides – some guns are used in situations where they do meet with some abuse - a truck gun mounted between the seats of your truck, that trusty shotgun behind the bar or in the hotel lobby.

That's the sort of gun the SAI-12B Boxer is. A shortened, PGO (Pistol Grip Only) version of the SAI-12 El Pumpo, it provides its user with the firepower of 5+1 12-gauge shells – not as much as some of those bespoke guns we spoke about – but it does cost $125. For the price of a KAE Systems Fulmine, you can literally have four of these guns – and have $25 left for the ammo.

The system is the same system as the SAI-12 – no disconnector, reliable pump action, if you want to, you can just hold the trigger down and fire as fast as you can work the pump.

The gun is named Boxer – in part after professional athletes, and in part after the dogs. Like the dog, the SAI-12B is loyal and reliable in a moment of trouble – and like the martial artist, the Boxer packs a mean punch.

So when trouble hits you – punch right back.

Call now to order.

Barrel length: 180.4mm
Overal length: 451.4mm
Ammunition capacity: 2+1

Weight (empty): 2.4 kg

The SAI-12 series of shotguns has met with success around the world – but let's be absolutely fair, a shotgun does have one disadvantage. It is fairly big. Sometimes you just don't have room – in your car, on your person, or in your life – for a gun the size of a boat oar. And we at Sourasky Arms International understand that. But that is no excuse for going completely unarmed. (Spoiler: there is no excuse for going completely unarmed.)

And so we at SAI have come up with yet another version of the SAI-12. At first we thought of naming it the cestus, but then someone at our fan forums suggested another name. We have decided, in deference to our fan community, to call it El Stumpo – after all, its just a shorter version of El Pumpo.

And here it is. Now, there are obvious disadvantages – it is obviously a very short gun, and the ammunition capacity is at best just two in the tube and one in the pipe – but it's a lot better for your personal defense than a restraining order or a cell phone. (But do get those too.)

Insane ex-husband? Road rage lunatic trying to get you out of your car? Surprise suburban bear attack? Three rounds of 12-gauge buckshot ought to rearrange their plans for the day – from 'teaching you a lesson' to learning a lesson of their own.

True, the recoil is teeth-rattling, and the muzzle flash will probably be visible from the moon.

But – as they always say – you should see the other guy.


So order your SAI-12 today.

And if it comes to it, teach those bastards you "Can't trump The Stump™"

SAI-12B Ventilator pump-action shotgun

Barrel length: 389.75 mm
Overall length (stock folded): 682 mm
Overall length (stock extended): 909.55 mm
Ammunition capacity:
Caliber: 12 gauge, 14 gauge, 20 gauge, other upon request

MSRP: $300

Sourasky Arms International products have been justly popular across the world – and among them, our SAI-12 series of shotguns, namely the El Pumpo, Boxer, and El Stumpo. But we have been looking at some of the modifications members of our customer community have madce to their SAI-12s, and some of them have made some really good changes. (We'd like to particularly thank the community at SouraskyArmsForum.all, and particularly Trogg45, PigDog, and ImperialistBastard, who have shown us their own modified Boxers and made some useful suggestions. (All three of them shall receive their complementary SAI-12V

So now here it is. The magnum opus of the SAI-12 series, this shotgun brings out the best that the SAI-12 action has to offer. While it is significantly more expensive than previous SAI-12 guns, it still fits in nearly any budget. And where it is more expensive – it is very clear what we are spending the extra money on.

First, the receiver itself is redesigned, a composite of high-strength steel and high-durability polymer has been used where we could. It can now be swung open like on an AR-15 series rifle, for ease of maintenance. The receiver is also heavier and sturdier, to stand up to being rode hard and put away wet – and to make it easier for you to ride it hard, we've also redesigned the pump, including a pump spring assist and an improved heat shield. (The pump also includes a mount for a standard-sized tactical flashlight, which ships with the gun and comes with both a regular and a strobe function).

All of this redesigning is there for a reason. The centerpiece of the design is in fact the magazine. No longer a tube-fed shotgun like its predecessors, the SAI-12V Ventilator is instead fed from a box magazine, vastly increasing the firepower available to its user, both in terms with the amount of rounds available to you on tap, and the speed with which the gun can be reloaded – just drop out the empty mag and drop in a fresh one, and on you go – useful for both 3-Gun competition and social situations).

Then we have the muzzle device. Working to reduce felt recoil (while, of course, producing a muzzle flash of truly dazzling proportions), and it is also incredibly sturdy, and can be used as a bottle opener – or a face-opener if need be. (Can also be used for stand-off action in door breaching).

Because let's make one thing clear – although this shotgun is a decent starter piece for those getting into the competition world, the core of any SAI design is the same – providing hard-working members of the public with a sturdy arm. And this is what it is – a sturdy, reliable gun you can reach for when you hear glass breaking on the veranda on the middle of the night. Which is why we called it the Ventilator. It's there to help you add a few extra ventilation opening to anyone who threatens you, your family, your property or your freedom.

Call now to order.

Background: Sourasky Arms International is principally famous for its production of sturdy, affordable weapons intended for the working classes of the world. SAI has overseen the creation of a series of rifles, submachineguns, pistols and shotguns that were equipped with the most minimal features and capable of being manufactured with minimal tooling.

However, it was always clear that these were limited in terms of their capabilities and in terms of what they could do. Indeed, they were principally oriented towards putting a weapon in the hands of those who had none. They could not appeal to those who - for reasons of a higher income, social standing, or tradition - did not wish to settle for a ‘budget’ weapon.

And therefore, the R&D division at SAI asked itself a whole new question: how do we put as much firepower as possible into the hands of the homeowner?

The answer came in a very simple form. It was decided to take the SAI-12V Ventilator pump-action shotgun, and to build a sturdy, tactical semi-auto / select-fire shotgun using as any parts as possible from the existing Ventilator.

Thus was born the Annihilator.

By far, this is the heaviest, most advanced, and most powerful shotgun produced by Sourasky Arms International - and the most expensive.

The Annihilator is available as either a select-fire or a semi-auto shotgun (depending on customer demand and local regulations). It feeds from either the normal box magazines from the Ventilator or from its own, 25-round, magazine. It is equipped with a gas regulator and thus able to shoot most forms of ammunition available - tear gas, buckshot, slugs, less-lethal rounds and signal flares alike. (If you somehow need to shoot a round so underpowered it will not cycle the bolt at all - a switch on the gun’s left side can allow you to use the gun as a bolt-action gun only, and a special rubber cover for your charging handle is included for this eventuality). If you are lucky and live in a country like Allanea, the Annihilator will allow you to even fire grenades.

But even with regular buckshot and slugs, the Annihilator lives up to its name. With a cyclic rate of fire of 400 rounds per minute, it can dump out its entire magazine in seven seconds, making short work of any home invader, car-jacker, terrorist or ruffian. And it won’t just stop them. It will annihilate them.

Technology: At the core of the Annihilator design is its high-quality receiver, receiver produced out of is stamped steel with machined internal fittings, the lower receiver and trigger house are extruded & then machined aluminum in the same vein as a CZ Bren's. Lightweight, durable and reliable.

The gun is typically operated as a select-fire or semi-auto shotgun, however, a switch on the left side of the receiver allows it to be used as a ‘pump’ action shotgun using the charging handle. However, for ergonomics reason this is not the optimal mode of operation, even with the optional extended-grip charging handle. It is preferable to use the adjustable gas port wherever possible to adjust the gas system to varying loads.

Sales: As a rule, Sourasky Arms International does not sell arms to government agencies. It is run by anarchists. Special exceptions can be negotiated for government programs intended to arm the general public, such as marksmanship education or militia programs.
