The Savage Arms S1200 is a semi-automatic shotgun designed for hunting and sport shooting. It is part of the Stevens brand, which is a subsidiary of Savage Arms. The S1200 is a gas-operated shotgun built on a lightweight aluminum receiver, making it relatively easy to carry and handle. It features a synthetic stock and forend for durability and weather resistance. The shotgun is available in a variety of finishes, including black, camo, and stainless steel. The S1200 is chambered for 12 gauge, which is a versatile and widely used shotgun gauge for various applications, including hunting and clay target shooting. It is designed to handle 2 3/4" and 3" shotgun shells. It may have different barrel lengths available, such as 26 inches, 28 inches, or others, depending on the specific model and configuration. One unique feature of the Stevens S1200 is its use of an inertia-driven operating system. This system uses the energy produced by firing the shotgun to cycle the action, providing reliable and consistent operation with reduced recoil.
