FABARM STF12 Pump Action Tri-Shot Airsoft Shotgun (Model: Short / Black)

"Amazing Tri-shot shotgun! I’m using 30g BB’s for it, and it has an accurate 40’ range. Great for CQB in my woodsy area. We have plywood buildings, and it’s spread out. Pump not meant for weaker arms, so not a good gun for smaller kids. Hits like a handful of rocks! Actually had a guy politely ask me to safety him after I’d shot him with it once before. He rounded a corner to me ready for him… If that says anything. A double (or bad) pump will put too many BB’s in the barrel, and that’s my only complaint. So wrack it right, and there’s no problems.

"Great gun, very first one. I’ve had it for 4 months now and it works just as good when I bought it. When you get it out of the box the spring is a big stiff but after a day or two of use it should be easier. Definitely buy extra shells. I didn’t know it came with a speed loader but that is very convenient. It’s probably around 300-320 fps with 0.20g BBs as it shoots VERY hard. Good quality and the barrel and interior is metal which gives it a good weight 2.9 lbs of good quality build. 10/10 recommended.

grip)

"This is a perfect starter airsoft shotgun, great accuracy and power. It’s shooting 150 targets with ease. Yes it does shoot 3 BBs at a time. Even though it comes with a speed loader I would still recommend getting extra shells for it.

"ive had the full sized version of this gun for a few years and used the hell out of it in both cqb and on my medium sized outdoor field here in santa paula ca. (Stryker airsoft ) and its been quit effective for a medium range shot gun with a decent range of about 100' with .20 BBs, but ive used as heavy as .25s in it and still had some good kills with it overall a good purchase for me . I play a lot of out door fields and my shot guns (I have several of different brands) always serve me well, this is a very comfortable gun to hold , both lite and maneuverable and not too hard to pump add a red dot to it and almost never misses , cheers.

"I got the compact black version. It is better quality than most spring pump action tri shots.

pros
grips have nice rubberized feel
light weight
comes with 2 iron sights, fiber optic and ones under the top rail (if you take the top rail off
feels solid
looks cool
comes with 2 shells and a speed loader
for those who dont know you get 10 pumps per shell and each time it shoots 3 bbs
you can pump it back then halfway forward then back and all the way forward to shoot 6 bbs at once
rubberized smooth butt pad

cons
spread is vertical like 1, can be fixed by turning or angling gun to the side to get a spread like 2 or 3
1 . 2 . 3 . . .
. .
. .

effective range is only like 60 ft with .20s
hard to pump for younger people
sling mounts are cheap and will break eventually
the stocks on the versions with them are very small, about the length of a hand (from fingers to wrist)

"Beautiful gun, very nice construction. Lightweight but doesn't feel cheap at all, fair warning the spring is kinda stiff. Least on my model so you really gotta rack it back, front and rear sight have a very clear picture.

PROS
Rails
Fibre optic like sights
Tri shot
Perfect weight and feel

Cons
Manual came in French

"For what you are paying for you are getting something well worth it. The range on this thing is great and your are shooting 3 bbs at a time. Not a lot of spread but you have some and that will make a different. Very fun to use.

"Just got it and it’s amazing it takes a little effort to pump but it shoots like a dream!
by Kevin R. on 04/11/2019
"Ordered to short barrel w/ stock model and out of the 4 Spring Shotgun brands I've purchased this is the king. AEG range and power, and I mean good AEG. Tough build with no creaks or wobble. Comfortable and extremely functional. I'll be ordering the stockless model as a sidearm for my AEG soon and my current one will see lots of primary use! Buy buy buy!

"Just got this beauty today for me and a friend, Got the short barrelled pistol grip model for CQB at my local field. It comes with an unjamming rod, speed reloader, 2 shells, a pack of 100 .2 g bbs, a pair of fiber optic sights, and the shotgun. It is a great airsoft gun with a decent fps (don't have a chrono), unique look (not a basic m870), rails on the top and bottom. The only downside is the pump is pretty hard to pull back for the first 20 pumps then loosens up. Overall 5/5 for the type and price, would highly recommend to any buyer looking for a spring shotgun.
