How did you get access to a SPAS-12? And did you really like using it? I have one and yeah it looks bad ass, but that is one slow mother to reload. I could see the appeal of carrying it as a coolness factor, but damn! After your 9 rounds are expended your pulling a side arm or hiding behind something until its topped off. Plus, you must have had a cool chain of command, because most units are run by the politically correct.
