Congrats brother, which Generation did you get?
I got a Gen 2 even though it came from a distributor in a box labeled Gen 3. Mine unfortunately is useless as I have THE issue that makes multiple shots difficult as the charging handle locks and the only way to eject the shell and chamber the next is by pressing the lock button....in the rear of the stock. Even then you're left looking like you're jerking off a giant black dildo. The problem didn't show until after 50-60 slugs of various manufacturers. It appears to be getting worse. Last time at the range and I started to lose it. I'm glad I took the time to train with it and find the issue before I choose it to protect my home.
Watching the unveiling of the semi-auto UTS15 was a very sad day. Having bought a dud from UTAS I'm unwilling to give them another chance. I'm hoping to have it upgraded to Gen 3 with the magnesium parts versus the plastic parts and if im still unsatisfied I'll sell it for an Tavor IMI12. When I saw my amorer's face when I attempted to pursue him to troubleshoot the issue I then realized how complex and delicately engineered this shotty is. I swore I'd never buy anything not manufactured here but the TS12 is the best high cap shotgun I've seen on a range.
It is supposed to be a gen 5. I do not have the original information on it, as it was bought off consignment from a gun shop. The gun shop sold it to the buyer at the start of the Chinese virus. They had ordered it in for him. He shot it on their range they think only about 10 rounds. He came in 2 days later and told them to put it up for sale.
I have not had any issues with it. Putting a 300 round through it so far. It kicks like a mule compared to some other shot guns I have fired. But overall I am impressed with it. With no sights I have shot a few clays and put rounds on target really well. It is my home defense shot gun now. The girlfriend likes the short profile and so do I.
You might want to look at the KSG from kal tec. Its another bullpup and the KSG 25 can hold 24 +1.
I'm not a fan of the KSG, it's too compact for me. I prefer the fit of the uts. I threw a venom red dot on mine as it was laying around and it functions nicely.
If you're at all interested in the factory internal flashlight/laser I'd snatch it up as they're getting very hard to find as the green laser version is near unobtainable. Most aftermarket options are superior but I prefer the location of the install and the placement of the switch over extra lumens and cheaper price. The tactical choke tube is also becoming hard to find.

Count yourself lucky. I still have the gen 2 version.
Garbage.
That's the word I use to describe it.
I only keep it around as a monument to my foolishness. So that I never make the same $1100 mistake again.
