[QUOTE=seba079;43561841]It's explained in the video above - apparently it can be used as a carry handle and doubles as a thing to hook around your arm so you can fire the gun one-handed.[/QUOTE]
Firing one-handed for when used with a tactical shield, as far as I'm informed. The SPAS is quit obviously meant as a police-shotgun, what with being easy to fire with both lethal and low-power shells without having to rack it in an awkward way, so it makes sense if that's the intention.
Also useful for badassedly ziplining across shit.

Just make sure you only do this with a SPAS with the updated safety :v:
[QUOTE=catbarf;43546964]It also cannot be reloaded unless flipped upside down so the gate release can be pressed with a thumb, likes to jam a lot, has a safety that not only doesn't work but can cause the gun to fire when it is engaged, will chamber 3" shells fine but may explode when firing them, did I mention it weighs about double what it should, and firing with the stock extended is like being slapped in the face with a cheese grater [I]repeatedly[/I].
The real one really sucks and that's why nobody adopted it. But it looks fucking awesome and for movies, games, airsoft, whatever, that's all that matters.[/QUOTE]

Uh, excuse me? The Landwasserschlepper hardly even schlepps land und wasser when compared to the DUKW.

The Duck has schlepped so much more on both land und wasser that the landwasserschlepper just became a footnote, where the Duck is the legend, still in service as tour-busses around the world.
The DUKW and the other thing aint got shit on the SuKi.

It's like they just designed a boat then remembered that it was also supposed to go on land five minutes before the designs were supposed to be handed in, so they just threw some wheels on the bottom and called it a day.

Just a quick little highlight of British brilliance in WWII.. We all know the Sherman Firefly, regular ol' Shermie mounting a 17-pounder gun, only tank in 1944 the allies had that could go head-to-head with a Panther or Tiger and win.

See anything odd in those pictures?
The barrels are counter-shaded halfway down. The last one even got a fake muzzle device attached midway down the barrel.
Before D-day, the Germans knew that Shermans were kinda no biggie for their own high-end tanks. Soon after D-day, however, they learned that Shermans with big, fuck-off guns [I]were[/I] a major threat, and instructions were put out to target Fireflies as first priority. To counter this, the Brits decided to camouflage the barrels' ends, so they'd look like a regular 76mm Shermie from a distance. In addition to this, some 76mm Shermans would get hollow metal tubing welded onto the turret-mantle, extending far beyond the stubby barrel, to give the impression of a 17-pounder gun to make a regular, harmless Sherman into a high-priority target, while the dangerous Firefly with counter-shaded barrel would seem like a low-priority 76mm.
Pretty clever, pretty clever.

Don't you mean 75mm? The Brits never got any 76mm Shermans, they only had 75mm Shermans and Fireflies with the 17 pounder.
