Shotgun

A shotgun is a lethal close-range weapon. Though they can be powerful if used by a skilled player, they are rarely used because of their weak damage at medium range and small ammo clip. At close range, a shotgun can kill two armored opponents with one shot. The M3, M4, KSG-12, SG-1 and M1887 can be fired while reloading while the USAS-12, Double barrel and Gatling cannot.

Overview
Shotguns are usually chambered with 12 gauge buckshots as their ammunition. They are very suitable for close quarter combat due to their high damage. They are useless at long range and cannot fire underwater. Most can do high knockback against zombies.
