Mod:DUST Survival Simulator/Makeshift Shotgun

The Makeshift Shotgun is a two handed scatter gun featured in Fallout: DUST.

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 and difficulty of obtaining spare copies.

Crafting
The Makeshift Shotgun, as well as its Makeshift Shotgun Bayonet and Makeshift Shotgun Choke modification can not be crafted.

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 Shoeburglar’s Wastelander Pack, as are many other weapons in DUST. Shoeburglar’s Shambler is in turn based on the weapon of the same name from the Metro series of video games.

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.
