The Mossbergs are much lighter than your Spas 12. That was the reason I stopped toting mine around. It may look cool, but after a while it's like carrying an anvil around.
I like the being able to choose between semi and pump, it is definitely a nice option. That said, I liked my M3S90 and not the spas 12. I found the spas 12 to be awkward to hold, a littler over sized in the front end. Never shot one so I can't comment on it, my impression is only from handling one for a few moments.
I have to agree with David, I liked my SPAS but the Benelli super90 M3 is by far a better shotgun and more reliable. The only way to keep the SPAS 12 reliable was to know which ammo to use in semi auto. The SPAS prefers heavy loads in semi for it to function correctly and won't cycle any birdshot in semi. The M3 super90 will spit out just about anything in semi (mine hates those cheap all plastic Activ shells).
Other then that, the SPAS is the hands down winner when it comes to looks! The thing just looks bad sitting there and I always loved shooting it one handed with the carrying handle turned sideways.
spas 12 looks cool but its heavy and complicated.
Once saw somebody shooting away with one he'd just brought pumping shells through it.
did not know it could auto load
still cool though
Doesn't it depend on what you want it for? If you're looking for a collector item the Spas-12 is it. If you're looking for a home defense shotgun the Mossberg 5XX works fine. Seems to me a 12ga shotgun shooting a single round of 00 buck will do just as much damage as one shooting 6 or 7 of them in a semi automatic.
i always liked the look of the franchi law-12 but don't know how good they are just thought they looked more "normal" than a spas they're semi only though and run around 600-700$
I vote saiga 12 too, they're great and you'd have dough left over for a good pump gun
Yup. The Mossberg for a slick car/truck gun that won't hang up on stuff should you need to quickly pull it out of the confines of a vehicle, and the Saiga for home defense.
