Franchi LAW12 - Like the SPAS-12, but Semiauto Only
This video explores the Franchi LAW-12 shotgun, a semi-automatic-only variant of the more well-known SPAS-12. Introduced in the 1980s, the LAW-12 was designed for law enforcement with features like an eight-round magazine, a quick-employment safety, and a magazine disconnect. Despite its lighter weight and simpler operation compared to the SPAS-12, the LAW-12 struggled to gain market success due to its price and a lack of distinguishing features. Importation to the US ended in 1989 due to the Bush import ban, and production ceased around 2000. The video delves into its specifications and historical context.
