Spas-12

Summary
The SPAS-12 (Sporting Purpose Automatic Shotgun) is a combat shotgun manufactured by Italian firearms company Franchi from 1979 to 2000. This shotgun has the ability to switch between semi-automatic mode and pump-action mode, the former being faster and more lethal, while the latter is designed to shoot less lethal projectiles, such as tear gas.

Tips

 * This is a fast firing, semi-automatic shotgun. Treat it as such.
 * Great for crowd control against hordes.
 * This weapon has the potential to one shot any type of infected that isn't a Brute, use this to your advantage.
 * Regardless, it's still great for taking out Brutes due to the high damage, tight spread, and fast firerate.
 * The high damage output of this weapon along with its large ammo supply is one of its greatest strengths. Try to not get too close to zombies, as it still does good damage at medium range.
 * Like the other shotguns, it is not recommended to use the iron sights or trying to ADS in first person. Hip firing in third person is the way to go.
 * This weapon also doesn't benefit from a spread reduction while crouching or aiming down the sights like many others, this is due to the Spas-12 's already very tight spread.

Trivia

 * Mesh created by GregTame.
 * This is the third weapon to return from the original R2D, as well as the third shotgun in R2DA.
 * Originally had a price of $75,000 in debug, this was changed to $55,000 when it was added to the final game.
 * Rank required to use this weapon used to be 25 before Update v0.8.4
 * This weapon's range was nerfed in Update v0.8.4, dropping it from 210 to 160.
 * The range was nerfed once again, dropping it from 160 to 90 in V.0.9.1 because "it ain't a sniper".
 * When using clip-giving armors, like the Wingmaster, it only gives extra shells.
 * The Spas-12 easily trumps the Wingmaster due to bullet spread/damage, firerate and more shells.
 * The off-puts for this are the reloading speed, which is a few milliseconds slower and the significantly lower range than the Wingmaster (Spas-12 only has a range of 90, while Wingmaster has a range of 140).
 * This weapon is in the iconic game L4D2, part of R2DA's origin, listed as Combat Shotgun.
 * Oddly enough, the folding stock is still folded and is unable to be used.
