gunfun 3,931 Posted July 9, 2015 Report Share Posted July 9, 2015 Very nice indeed! Personally I don't care what you call it so long as I can one "mine", although I like "Spartan 12" as well. Another vote for "Spartan 12"! >>100% U.S. Made! Outstanding! Too many companies use the spartan thing. That would be confusing, and would also suck from a trademark standpoint. Just do a google search of terms like "spartan tactical' 'spartan firearms', etc. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Spartacus 1,619 Posted July 9, 2015 Report Share Posted July 9, 2015 Rebel-12 Yep, that one came to my mind too. Or Patriot-12 Maybe a promo video with a Billy Idol soundtrack..... "With a rebel yell, she wants more, more, more....." 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Just do a google search of terms like "spartan tactical' 'spartan firearms', etc. Nope I agree. I know of at least one AR Billet lower called the Spartan, so it wouldn't be the best name from the trademark or legal perspective, but I am a Michigan State fan, and am a student of the Ancient Greek culture particularly the city state of Sparta. So Spartan 12 just sounds good to me. In keeping with the general desire to poke a pointy stick in the eyes of our fellow gun grabbing citizens how about just name it : "The Common Sense 12"? 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

saltydecimator 482 Posted July 9, 2015 Report Share Posted July 9, 2015 I don't think we really need to hyphenate 12 in there, we know it's 12 gauge think of a Remington 870 or the Mossberg 500, there's no 12 in any of those model names 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gunfun 3,931 Posted July 9, 2015 Report Share Posted July 9, 2015 SPAS-12, UTAS-12... This is a lower production gun than an 870. The 870 is only memorable because of huge sales numbers. With a gun like this, you kinda need to let people know it is a shotgun. A lot of the people who see it on the rack or in pictures will assume it is a rifle. I am sure you've had that happen with your S12 or Adkal derivative. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

HB of CJ 1,263 Posted July 9, 2015 Report Share Posted July 9, 2015 Does not matter what it eventually will be called. Let the marketing guys decide. What I am concerned about is that it will be INSTANTLY declared a DD (destructive device) by the all knowing august BATFE. When that quickly happens, it will also drag all the Saiga 12 type/related shotguns into that same category. Just me. Oh course, that will instantly triple sales. Hee hee hee. I love a good business plan. HB of CJ (oldest coot) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dunedain 44 Posted July 10, 2015 Report Share Posted July 10, 2015 Crusader 12 - and engrave In Hoc Signo Vinces on the side of the receiver of each weapon; now that would make a statement and have max cool factor, too. And please don't put safety warnings anywhere on the gun, nothing looks stupider than that (*sighs in HK's direction*). That's what manuals are for... 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

evlblkwpnz 3,418 Posted July 10, 2015 Report Share Posted July 10, 2015 Noveske makes a Crusader upper in 12.5". Naming it Crusader may be off putting to some, especially after John's passing. Hold out for something unique that fits it well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

magsite20 1,664 Posted July 14, 2015 Report Share Posted July 14, 2015 (edited) "I am become Death, destroyer of worlds 12" For ease of engraving "Rebel 12" might work better and those opposed to the term Rebel are more than likely not in your target audience, but may become a target.
