SPAS-12

"A lightweight combat shotgun with a devastating blast radius. Can be fired in two modes; semi-auto or pump action."

- The Arsenal

The SPAS-12 is a combat shotgun. It costs 700 GP per 24 hours from the shop. The fire mode of this shotgun is rather unique in that it is automatic. (Most shotguns are pump-action like the R870 and the M590 Military.) The SPAS-12 has slow automatic fire that is inaccurate after continuously firing. It has slightly weaker damage than the R870, but it makes up with its fire mode. After the 6-25-09 update, the SPAS-12 and all its variants now have 8 rounds in one magazine instead of 7, with a total of 32 rounds.

The SPAS-12 is unpopular and rarely used, mainly because there are other semi-automatic shotguns that are completely superior, such as the Saiga 20K and M4 Super 90.

Trivia

 * The real life version of the SPAS can be fired in semi automatic or in pump action.
 * Although the SPAS-12 is semi automatic, watching a player from third person shows the user using the pump feature of the shotgun.
 * The Combat Arms SPAS-12 is actually a fully automatic shotgun despite the text above; you can tell by looking at the firing mode in game which shows many bullets instead of just one.
 * Due to a past patch, now the SPAS-12 and its series have no name in the bottom right. (This has been fixed in a recent patch.)
