Shotgun

The Shotgun is a step up from the Pistol.

At close range, the Shotgun is usually enough to blow an arm or leg off your target, or put them down for good. As powerful as it is, the shotgun has two negative features: a long reload cycle, and a very wide spread at long range. These two factors make the shotgun a good weapon at close range, where things can get really nasty, but not at medium to long range.
