Spandau S2 Shotgun 12 ga. 28 in. MO Bottomland 3 in. 5 rd.

Description

The Spandau S2 Shotgun 12 ga. 28 in. MO Bottomland 3 in. 5 rd. is a semi-auto built around a lightweight inertia system that cycles everything from light target loads to heavy 3-inch magnums without a single adjustment. The Mossy Oak Bottomland finish blends into marshes and timber, while the 28-inch vent rib barrel with fiber optic front sight gets on target fast. Per Spandau specs, this shotgun ships with a Benelli/Mobil-compatible choke system and oversized controls for gloved-hand operation. Last updated: April 2026.

Key Features

• Inertia-Driven Operating System — why it matters: No gas ports to clean, no adjustment needed between loads; it cycles reliably from 1-ounce target loads to 3-inch magnums without a hiccup.
• 28-Inch Vent Rib Barrel with Fiber Optic Front Sight — why it matters: The brass mid bead and bright fiber optic front give you a clear sight picture in low light, so you can swing through ducks or bust clays at dawn.
• Oversized Controls and Loading Gate — why it matters: The bolt handle, safety, and bolt release are all enlarged for easy manipulation with gloves or wet hands, and the beveled loading gate speeds up quad-loading in the field.
• Benelli/Mobil-Compatible Choke System — why it matters: You can swap chokes instantly from the included IC, Mod, and Full tubes to match your spread for waterfowl, turkey, or sporting clays without buying a whole new barrel.
• Rubber Recoil Pad and Enhanced Ergonomics — why it matters: The soft rubber pad soaks up magnum recoil, and the textured grip panels keep the gun planted in your hands during fast follow-up shots.

Who It’s For

This shotgun is for waterfowlers who spend mornings in flooded timber and afternoons on open marshes, and for hunters who want a do-it-all semi-auto that doesn’t need a gas system to run. It also fits shooters who prefer a camo finish that blends into Bottomland cover without adding weight.

Pros and Cons

• Pros: Reliable inertia cycling with no gas system maintenance; lightweight at 7.2 lbs; Mossy Oak Bottomland camo matches popular hunting environments; Benelli/Mobil choke compatibility means affordable tube upgrades.
• Cons: The inertia system can be sensitive to very light 2.75-inch target loads under 1 oz — break it in with heavier loads first, then try light stuff. Also, the synthetic stock has a slight flex under hard recoil compared to wood.

Compared to the Benelli Montefeltro, the Spandau S2 offers nearly identical inertia reliability at half the price. Against the Stoeger M3000, it adds a better camo finish and a more refined loading gate — but both are solid budget-friendly inertia guns.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the Spandau S2 cycle light target loads?

Yes, but it may require a break-in period. Run 50-100 rounds of 1.25-oz or heavier loads first. After that, most 1-oz target loads cycle reliably. If you still get failures, check that the action spring is fully seated.

What chokes are included with the S2?

The shotgun ships with three Benelli/Mobil-compatible tubes: Improved Cylinder, Modified, and Full. You can swap them for any aftermarket Mobil-style choke.

Is the Mossy Oak Bottomland finish durable?

Yes. The camo is applied over a corrosion-resistant coating and holds up well in saltwater marshes and wet timber. Avoid abrasive cleaners to keep the pattern intact.

Can I use 3.5-inch shells in the S2?

No. The S2 is chambered for 2.75- and 3-inch shells only. Do not attempt to chamber 3.5-inch magnums — the gun is not designed for them and it could cause damage or injury.
