What LTS said.
The biggest handgun of the world - Franchi SPAS 12 Semi-automatic shotgun. It can be set for pump-action or semi automatic and is sometimes equipped with folding wire stock, designed to support your elbow when not pressed against your shoulder. This way you can fire it one-handed (if it doesn't break your arm). I think Italian military has a version which can launch specially modified grenades (put on the muzzle of the shotgun like a rifle grenade).
The inverted and cut down foregrip served as the front part of the chassis of M41A Pulse Rifle in the Aliens movie (there was a cut-down Remington 870 beneath it, presented in the movie as a 20mm grenade launcher).

Benelli also makes a shotgun that can go from pump to semi-auto
In 49 states ignorance is a crime. In the other one it is bliss.

Unless you just love to be frustrated, don`t buy one. Unless you would just like to have it because it looks cool. Trust me, it more complicated to run than a top-fuel dragster. PIA. The LAW12 is a lighter and better choice-cheaper too.

You have to be very careful when shopping for a SPAS12.
