Don’t be too hard on Franchi, though. They make fantastic, classic shotguns like these ones that run great. Just, you know, the post apocalyptic SPAS-12 just maybe wasn’t one of them. Meme from @therealgila on Instagram.

Still want one for no practical reason at all.
That’s the best reason to want one!
Mine never jammed. It’s one of the guns I really regret selling when I was younger. Honestly that list includes every gun I sold, but the SPAS is probably #1 on it.
Of the couple of dozen guns I’ve sold/traded over the last 40 years, there’s only two I don’t regret.
Me too, traded for a brand new 1994 Sig P220. Loved the Spas but it was heavy !! The Sig is made in west Germany, will never sell it !!
Age has not been kind to surviving examples unfortunately.
So funny how far aesthetics have carried that shitty gun.
In fairness Dr. Grant was a very smart fellow that was a bit of a klutz. Facing hungry dino’s and his answer to a jammed gun was ditch it?
Yep, and then seek safe haven in a nearby SUV…. that had the top cut off of and the doors removed.
At least he didn’t try to hide in a porto-potty.
The dude hiding in the potty was a lawyer. Show of hands, how many cheered when he got got?
*raises hand*
In the book, instead of shotguns, they used tranquilizer rocket launchers. Would have been interesting if they had used them in the movie…LAAWs in the defense!
This one’s pretty good.
To be honest however, I’d love to be the first person in history to have a DVU.
Defensive Velociraptor Use. Makes a hell of a mess but also a point and makes the coroner’s job easy.
“Defensive Velociraptor Use.”
I know of several pawn and gun shops down here that let loose large dogs with bad attitudes to run free in their shops overnight…
Just be really careful when cleaning the weapon.
Palestinian Islamic Jihad Terrorist Dies After Accidental Discharge Of Weapon He Was Cleaning

What’s the Pally word for “booger hook?”
Well- if you can’t build it so that it’s reliable – style so it will be a movie star for years to come.
The SPAS was a staple on Stargate well into the 2000s.
Like the Laugo and the new KelTec 5.7 pistol. Doesn’t matter if they work…..they look weird.
According to imfdb, the SPAS-12 was only used in season 3 of Stargate.
Season 3 and 5.
When it was present, it was used a lot. On the replicators.
Rechecked. Thanks. I now remember that arc.
I have the whole series packaged for viewing. One day I’ll get around to watching it.
I wouldn’t have a SPAS 12 on a bet. Do know of one DGU with one. Interesting story. I’ll tell it one day.
no time like the present.
Never handled the SPAS. And will stick with my old Mossberg or Winchester scatter guns.
The Spas fires in both semi auto and pump for extra low pressure shells such riot shells which would not cycle the action on their own.
have a SPAS-12, its never jammed on me.
BREAKING IN SUPREME COURT: Biden DOJ Files HUGE 67-page Legal Brief Asking SCOTUS to Shrink 2A.
forty years ago i borrowed a francchi over/ under; had never heard of them.
been trying to buy it ever since.
That’s Italian. You can go pump or auto.
Seeing how the SPAS-12’s enduring popularity is entirely due to its aesthetics, you’d think someone would start cranking out affordable pump guns that superficially resembled it without the dodgy reliability or excess weight.
