Tungsten Alloy Shot for SPAS-12

Tungsten alloy shot is used as the shot for shotgun hunting shells. Tungsten alloy shot is used as the shot of SPAS-12.

The Franchi SPAS-12 is a combat shotgun manufactured by Italian firearms company Franchi from 1979 to 2000. Only five percent (about 1,850) of the estimated SPAS-12 shotguns manufactured were imported into the U.S. The SPAS-12 is a dual-mode shotgun, adjustable for semi-automatic or pump-action operation. The SPAS-12 has been sold to military and police users worldwide, on the civilian market, and has been featured in films and TV shows.

The appearance and intended purpose of the SPAS-12 initially led to its "combat" designation. Franchi renamed the model the Sporting Purpose Automatic Shotgun in 1990, after the importation ban of 1989 (when it was called the Special Purpose Automatic Shotgun). This allowed continued sales to the U.S. as a limited-magazine-capacity, fixed-stock model until 1994. Following the Federal Assault Weapons Ban, exports to the U.S. ceased. In September 2004 the ban expired, but Franchi had already ended production of the SPAS-12.

Using tungsten alloy shot, the force of SPAS-12 is improved.
