Mod:DUST Survival Simulator/Makeshift Shotgun

 is a weapon in DUST Survival Simulator.

Characteristics
Cobbled together from parts of various firearms, the Makeshift Shotgun excels at close-quarters combat. Dealing more damage per shot and firing faster than the contemporary Hunting Shotgun, the Makeshift Shotgun is one of the best 12-gauge options available.

However, the ramshackle design of the weapon combined with the use of high-powered ammunition causes the gun to degrade at a ludicrous speed. Frequent maintenance is required to keep the Makeshift Shotgun in serviceable condition, a task made difficult by the relative rarity of the weapon.

Crafting
The Makeshift Shotgun cannot be crafted, nor can its choke or bayonet modifications.

Locations

 * The weapon as well as its modifications can spawn on a variety of NPCs, including Cannibals in Primm.

Behind the Scenes
The Makeshift Shotgun is featured as the Shambler in Shoeburglar’s Wastelander Pack, as are many other weapons in DUST.

Bugs

 * The Makeshift Shotgun is not affected by the Shotgun Training and And Stay Back perks. This may make a base-game shotgun a better choice.
 * This issue can be remedied by installing DUST Tweaks - Better Repair and More.
