The SPAS-12 was designed from the ground up as a rugged military shotgun, and it was named the Special Purpose Automatic Shotgun. In 1990, Franchi renamed the shotgun the Sporting Purpose Automatic Shotgun, which allowed continued sales to the United States as a limited-magazine-capacity, fixed-stock model until 1994.
Although the standard capacity of the Model 10 is 4 shells, there was a magazine tube extension available which would increase the capacity to 6 shells. On the early model shotgun the 10A, the upper plastic section also housed the built-in flashlight and carrying handle.

The Model 1208 is also a short-barreled variant of the Model 1216. Its barrel length is 10", its overall length is 24 1/2", and its magazine can hold 8 rounds (4 x 2 shells). The Model 1208 also has a barrel shorter than 18 and is therefore also regulated by the NFA as a short-barreled shotgun.
