Based originally on the gas-operated Franchi 500, that SPAS-12 was robust, reliable, and designed as a semiautomatic action with a backup pump action operation for use with underpowered ammunition (like beanbags or other less-lethal loads). In 1982 they began to be imported into the US through FIE, which was replaced by AAI as the importer in 1989. Eventually the 1994 Assault Weapons Ban ended SPAS-12 importation, and Franchi discontinued the model in 2000 in favor of the improved SPAS-15. • The SPAS-12 was almost always sold with a 21.5 inch barrel and 8-round magazine tube. It was available with either a solid sock or a top-folding type, complete with arm brace hook for shooting one-handed from a vehicle. In total, between 45,000 and 50,000 were made between 1979 and 2000, with the largest single purchaser being the Egyptian government (which took 18,000 of them). • Full video on the SPAS 15: • • SPAS-15: Franchi's Improvement on the... • All the best firearms history channels streaming to all major devices: • weaponsandwar.tv • https://utreon.com/c/forgottenweapons/ • / forgottenweapons • http://www.floatplane.com/channel/For... • Cool Forgotten Weapons merch! http://shop.forgottenweapons.com
