I do believe it is specifically listed so therefore is an AW and illegal.
Sorry.

Yup... it's a no...Sorry
Not only is it banned by name but I believe it is also Semi Auto with a pistol grip and a folding stock:(
So of a..... Sister lives in Arkansas and her husband has a Spas 12 he was going to give me....
you can get a luigi shotgun, it was a pump only version of the spas 12. the rear grip folder and heat shield fit the luigi. It is pretty rare though I have only seen one for sale. I think it was $475-$600.

Even if it was CA legal, there are safety issues with the original lever safety making the shotgun AD. This can be remedied by replacing the defective part with a factory cross-bolt safety, but since the shotgun has been long discontinued; replacement parts are super hard to find.

Any chance you have a link for the luigi shotgun? Try searching the internet for luigi anything and you get a million responses related to Mario :)

He has had it forever and isn't even sure it works. I just thought it would be an awesome shotgun to have. And it was going to free (minus DROS) so how could I say no :)

Luigi is the same company. Its Luigi Franchi that makes the SPAS 12.

Dude, take it anyway but have him keep it at his place out of state. Actually I don't think that's doable, but you CAN get a storage space in Nevada specifically for CA gun owners (don't remember the name) and keep it there.

He isn't going to sell it or anything so it is mine. I just wish I could have him ship it to a FFL here and I could display it :p That shotgun is sex

Well it might be off list, but as you can select semi-auto or pump and it has a detachable magazine, this would qualify as a SB23 features based California assault weapon. Pity because it looks like a great shotgun. http://world.guns.ru/shotgun/sh06-e.htm
ps- sorry if you knew that and were having a little fun.

Only if the SB23 features are removed outside of California.
Once that was done there is a slim chance a FFL would transfer it.
IE if the semi auto function was disabled it might fly.
I knew a guy that bought one of these back in the mid 1980's it was just about as fun to shoot as a street sweeper.
But thats a NO NO here as well as in every other state as in 1994 or there abouts the feds made the Street Sweeper and the striker a DD.

The SPAS 12 is great for shooting velociraptors.
