Franchi SPAS-12

Note: The SPAS-12 is very often shown as a pump action shotgun firing buckshot. It's a select-fire shotgun, capable of pump or semi-auto. Usually, the gun is only used in pump mode in the real world when underpowered shells are used. Only heavy loads are capable of operating the semi-auto gas system.
