Asg franchi 12 springer

[lemon191]

Hi guys

A friend has one of these shot guns coming which he wants to use at the gaol, however he's a bit concerned about the FPS as he saw a couple of YouTube vid's which show them as shooting around the 400 mark. And was just wondering if any of you shotgun owners have this particular model and if you knew what they shoot fps wise out of the box ? And spring wise is there upgrade /downgrades available ? I suspect not due to the general cheapness and the fact that they aren't really for long range use anyway but I thought I'd ask for him.

Cheers

I've got one of these and they're not short on power, tends to run around 365-375fps on .2s), I don't know the gaol but if it's CQB then this is probably not the best weapon for it.

Put it this way, I play at a 200 acre woodland type site and surprised a hell of a lot of people with the range on the thing!! Accuracy isn't great though, tends not to be on shotguns.

I have no idea about spring upgrades but as they're only cheap my guess is that if you can find out how to get it open then don't go mad, otherwise it'll likely end up in bits.

I've seen a couple of YouTube vids of them in use myself, even one with a scope on it being used for sniping!

Have fun!
