Movies & Games List
IMAGES! Yes, I just added the first image someone was kind enough to send it. I'd love to have one for each movie. If you can help, send them on in!
>>>> IMPORTANT:
As of 7/14/2001, I'm afraid I just don't have the time to keep this list
updated. You may feel free to send in names or images, and I'll not
lose them, but I can't tell you if / when I'll have time to update the
list. Sorry, but only have so much time for my free projects.
I did just get caught up, and thanks to EVERYONE who sent in names and
pictures. <<<<
Getting to be rare that they don't
have a SPAS12 in any "gun" movie. Just saw a crappy movie called
Renegade
Force. All the bad guys had HK automatics of some sort, the cops
had M-16's -- but each side had one guy with a SPAS12 (both used the same
gun far as I could tell). He always went first because the director
liked this shot of the fat barrel and the fat magazine extension poking
out. When the guy fired it, it shot full-auto 9mm just like the rest,
which must have been a major modification, don't ya think?

What about Aliens, which I just saw last night? Well, it is true that the "30 mm grenade launcher" on the bottom of their machine guns is made from a SPAS -- the whole metal heatshield is turned around backwards, the forward grip cut in half, the barrel sawed off, and a hole cut in the heatshield for the shells to eject.
Perhaps a new list, movies with guns made from parts of SPAS12's?
And a question, a puzzle
perhaps. Almost every time you see a SPAS12 in a movie they
are always pumping it in manual mode. never auto. Why? Pumping
look better on camera? The real reason is blanks just don't provide
the gas pressure needed to cycle the action. In movies like Beverly
Hills Cop 2 where (I'm told) it does fire semi-auto -- perhaps they
made a blank adapter for it, a constrictor for the end of the barrel?

A note -- while I don't have any problem with games like Dino Crisis, I have a real concern about games like Doom. However, I am a Libertarian, the Librarian and Curator of all this information, and I'm not going to censor anything.
I say this to make sure this list isn't considered an endorsement by me of all the games listed here. If you want to know what concerns me, click here. In a nut-shell - I have a real SPAS12 accessible if something goes bump in the night, or someone is threatening my life. While I am very comfortable with the gun itself, when I pick it up I always want to be a bit uncomfortable -- a bit not-relaxed. It is a loaded gun and the slightest screw-up can change my whole life. And I can tell you, the very last thing on earth I'd want to do is run several hundred hours of a VR simulation game shooting an exact copy SPAS12 shotgun at everything that moves, training myself till it was fun, comfortable, just a game. It isn't.
