Hello my name is AL. I bought my first shotgun, 1989 LUIGI FRANCHI SPA LAW-12. I love the gun, it is very accurate and kicks like MF with the right rounds. I am looking to modify this gun slightly. Yes I know this may sound dumb. I know that OEM SPAS accessories are like insanely hard to come by, besides that I have like 95% of the accessories and all the ones I wanted. Now my main issue/ question is. Is it possible to find a universal saddle for the receiver to put a red dot optic on THAT DOES NOT REQUIRE DRILLING INTO THE RECEIVER or is that something I would need done custom by a gun smith ? I know that the people who worked with FRANCHI dined ever working with them for making the OEM scope mount, and on top of that they only made like 100 something soo yeah. Also the material on top of the receiver is not very durable and if i had a gun smith drill a saddle mount into it over time the threads would thread and then you have open holes in the receiver.. Any advise would help. Thanks !

Would not "side saddle" that with anything. I don't think any responsible gunsmith would attempt that due to the nature of the action and parts to have to drill through. There as far as I know no provision that Franchi made to put something on the receiver as stated.
SPAS 12 Project made the mount you are thinking about. You may find a used one kicking, around they are out of production.
They did make some but mounts existed long before they were around.
I have checked Spas-12 website even emailed them and U haven’t had a response. I sent that email a fee months ago and didn’t expect them to answer. I heard website was sold in 2016 so the original owner does not own the website anymore. Besides that Google and anything else its impossible to find. Have not found one yet.
