Finally one of you

[u/Zen_Bonsai]

Ok ok. Im new. Like I got my license in the mail yesterday new.

I know almost nothing. Although I already know that those who know don't like this gun. Ok. But it's my first piece, and I got it for free from a friend by helping them out, and it hasn't seen a single shot fired yet. Brand new. I cut the tag off today.

...it's a Federation SPM-12

I've got questions. Go easy on me.

1) I leaned in my gun safety course that I match the head stamp with the data stamp. But wtf, I can't find the data stamp. Unless the info is buried within the serial

number I don't know what ..inch (?) of the shell is. And I feel like it's not cool to share the serial number? Online searches assume 3" but I need to be sure.

2) Even though I got this second hand, why can I find a manual online??

3) What the heck is this switch for in the second picture?

4) I assume these are my chokes in the third picture. I don't really know how to differentiate them. Whatever comes stock has this, I assume flash suppressor (see pic 4), seemingly welded to the stock choke. How do I know which choke is which and transfer the flash suppressor?

No, I'm perplexed on why you're so salty. Maybe it's just who you are
