Shotguns Information
Defiance T-250
A popular autoloading shotgun available in full-size and short-barrel versions. It has no underbarrel mount. The Damage Code is factored for slug rounds; if using shotgun (flechette) rounds the Damage Code is 10D(f). The short-barrel variant uses heavy-pistol ranges, has Concealability 6 and does 9S(f) or 9M damage.
Enfield AS-7
This assault shotgun provides massive firepower. It has an integral, top-mounted laser sight and is fitted with a 10-shot clip or 50-shot drum (the drum adds –3 to Concealability, +2 kg to weight). If loaded with shotgun rounds (flechette) instead of slug rounds, the weapon has a Damage Code of 8D(f).
Franchi SPAS-22
A thoroughly dangerous weapon, the SPAS-22 comes equipped with an integral smartlink-2 system and a folding stock that provides 1 point of recoil compensation when in use, reducing the weapon's Concealability by 2.
Mossberg CMDT
The chosen shotgun for corp militaries in the Desert Wars, the SM version features an integral smartgun link while the standard version is stripped down but includes a top-mounted laser sight instead.
Remington 990
One of the most common shotguns, the 990 is an all-purpose firearm popular with security forces. When firing standard slug rounds, its Damage Code is 8S, but the gun delivers a more powerful attack with shot rounds, increasing the damage to 10D(f). The 990 is also available in a sawed-off version, which increases the Conceal to 4 but reduces the Power of its attack by 2.
Street Sweeper
This jury-rigged shotgun is commonly used by sprawl gangers. Not officially distributed by any corporation, this weapon's design has been popularized by several trid combat shows and can be easily downloaded off the Matrix or obtained from any underworld syndicate.
Similar to an old-fashioned musket gun, the Street Sweeper must be manually loaded for each shot with condensed black power cubes (10 =Y= per box of 10), which requires a Simple Action. The weapon's muzzle is then crammed full of any small, hard junk or debris within reach - rocks, glass, screws, nails, metal bits, plascrete chunks and so on. Loading this "ammunition" requires at least one Simple Action, and the GM may require additional actions based on the availability of nearby debris.
When fired, the weapon forcibly ejects the debris as shrapnel. Use taser ranges, but also apply rules for shogun choke settings. The gun has a fixed choke setting that must be determined at purchase. Street Sweepers cause damage using the flechette ammunition rules. The GM may chose to modify the Power of the Damage Code by -1 or +1, depending on the debris loaded into the barrel.
Street Sweepers cannot mount any accessories.
