Combat Shotgun (Fallout 3)

The Drum-Magazine Combat Shotgun is a common Fallout 3 weapon.

Characteristics
The weapon appears to be functionally identical to its predecessors while its design has changed significantly (see NOTES). The unique form of this gun is The Terrible Shotgun.

Companions
Charon wields an unique shotgun that does not deteriorate, used to have infinite ammo, and very little spread. It cannot be interacted with. This makes it possible for Charon to "snipe" with the shotgun.

Trivia

 * Judging by its look, this shotgun's appearance was likely inspired by the Russian PPSh-41 Submachine Gun. The overall appearance, fire selector switch located inside the trigger guard, and the barrel's protruding muzzle-brake and the drum magazine are all similarities. The way the reloading procedure is operated also points to the real PPSh-41. However there is the obvious difference in that the PPSh-41 was a Submachine Gun (loaded with 7.62x25mm Tokarev cartridges and a 71-round magazine).

Bugs

 * On PS3 version, four seperate occasions firing upon Centaurs with VATS and acheiving a one hit kill caused the game to lock up(not crash, because it resumed around 2-mins later)This is probably because of the PS3's inferiority to most PC's.
