FABARM STF12 Shotgun, Black

The FABARM STF12 Initial is a gas-powered pump-action replica that recreates the classic pump shotgun down to the smallest detail. With its metal construction and official markings, it closely resembles the real thing, and the pump action gives the same solid, mechanical feel as the original – perfect for CQB, where pace and reliability at close range are decisive.

Pump shotguns hold a special place on the airsoft field because they force the player to make every shot count. Where many semi-automatic replicas focus on sheer firepower, the STF12 makes up for it with tactical flexibility: the short interval between shots, the generous Picatinny rail space and the robust build make it an obvious choice for players who want a different playing style without compromising on quality or finish.

A solidly built replica with tactical flexibility

The metal body, dual rail mounting and high shell capacity make the STF12 more than just looks – there is real function in every detail.

• Metal construction: The body is made from metal, giving a much more authentic weight distribution and durability than most polymer-based alternatives in the same category.
• Dual Picatinny rails: Rails both on top and under the pump leave room for sights, lights or foregrips, so the setup can be tailored to each player's needs.
• 3 fire settings: Choose between SAFE, 3 BBs and 6 BBs per pump – a flexibility that gives tactical variety pure semi-automatic replicas cannot match.
• High-capacity shells: The shells hold 30 BBs and deliver up to 10 shots per shell, minimising the need to reload mid-game.
• Sling attachment: A built-in sling mount makes the replica easy to carry over long periods of play without straining your arms.

Maintenance and safety

As a gas-powered replica, the STF12 should be stored upright or lying down in a way that avoids constant pressure on the valves, and the gas system should be emptied for longer storage to protect the O-rings. Always make sure the replica is on safe and that there is no shell in the chamber when not in use. Wear eye protection whenever you use it, and store it out of reach of children and unauthorised persons, as with all other airsoft equipment.
