Projectile Weapons: Shotguns

Benelli 121 M1:

The Benelli 121 M1 semiautomatic shotgun is reliable, simple, and sturdy, with one of the fastest shotgun actions in the world. Many military and law enforcement agencies use this or similar weapons.

Beretta M3P:

Designed for police and security work, the M3P can fire either single shots or on semiautomatic. The M3P comes equipped with a tubular steel stock that folds over the top of the weapon to form a carrying handle, and its ammunition feeds from a box magazine—an uncommon feature in a shotgun.

Browning BPS:

This heavy longarm fires the largest shotgun round available, the 10-gauge shell.

Mossberg:

The Mossberg Model 500 ATP6C is a pump-action shotgun designed for military and police work.

Sawed-Off Shotgun:

This is a 12-gauge, double-barreled shotgun with the stock and barrels sawed short. All that’s left of the stock is a pistol grip, and the barrels are roughly 12 inches long. Sawed-off shotguns are generally illegal; most are homemade by cutting down a standard shotgun.

Weapon Feature(s): If this weapon if fully-loaded, a character can fire both barrels at once.

The character receives a –2 penalty on the attack but deals +1 die of damage with a successful hit. Attacking this way uses both shotgun shells.
