FABARM STF12 Short Pump Shotgun (Black – Gas Powered)

The STF12 Short is a licensed replica of FABARM’s tactical pump shotgun. It has a metal body, official markings and Picatinny rails both on top and under the pump, so you can add an optic and a light.

The selector offers safe, 3 BB or 6 BB per shot. Shells hold 30 BBs, which is 10 shots on the 3 BB setting, and the gas system gives 0.9 joules of energy.

Key Features

• Official FABARM markings – a licensed STF12 replica
• Metal body – solid weight and durability
• 3 or 6 BB shot – choose spread or ammo economy
• 0.9 joules – suits most CQB limits
• Picatinny rails on top and under the pump – room for a red dot and a light
• Retractable stock and removable sights – adjust it to your setup

Real-World Use Cases

Pump shotguns are made for CQB. Clearing rooms with a 6 BB spread is very effective, and the STF12 Short’s compact length makes it easy to move through doorways.

It also makes a strong secondary for players who want something different from a pistol on indoor sites.

UK Legal & Site Notes

This is a realistic imitation firearm (RIF). To buy one in the UK you need a valid defence under the VCRA, such as UKARA registration through a recognised skirmish site. Gas output drops as the temperature falls, so chrono on the day with the gas you plan to use and stay inside your site’s limits.

Use a good-quality green gas and store the magazines with a small amount of gas in them, which keeps the seals from drying out. A drop of silicone oil on the fill valve and the gas route seal every few games helps prevent leaks. On cold days, keep spare magazines in an inside pocket so they stay warm, and use polished, good-quality BBs with the hop-up set for the weight you play with.
