Heavy Shotgun

[askinnywhitedildo]

I never see anyone using this, am I the only one?

 

Everyone still spams the f*ck outta that AA-12, But the Saiga has more range and shoots a slug instead of buckshot, and I think it looks way better than the AA-12. At a distance, I still see people hitting me 6 times to kill me with the AA-12, but actually aiming with the Saiga takes 1 or 2 shots because of it's slugs. But, at very close range it lacks what the AA-12 has.

 

Either way, does anyone else think this gun is a hidden gem? That G36c Special Carbine caught on like wildfire, but this one just hasn't seemed to at all.

assault shotgun isnt an aa-12

 

the heavy shotgun is pretty crap, honestly.

 

no drum barrel attachment. range is crap. acurracy is off.

it's not just AA-12

assault shotgun in GTA V is combination of utas-15 ( most part ) and AA-12 ( least part )

you kinda said it yourself, at range might as well stick with assault rifles and close range assault shotty (i still use the pump action for a bit of fun).

*waits to get jumped on even more, for calling it a AA-12*

[Sky_Light12]

I think it's due to the fact that people would rather prefer the gun that kills the fastest, instead of more damage per shot. The Heavy Shotgun may deal more damage per shot, but a person could easily kill you while you load the next shot, due to the Heavy Shotgun's considerably lower RPM than the Assault Shotgun.

although , the range is longer than any other shotgun . heavy shotgun still dealt low damage when used on higher range combined smaller spread

What I dislike about this gun is the recoil. With auto aim, you are sure the third shot will miss due to muzzle climb. The auto shottie also has muzzle climb but it's not an issue because the spread compensates.

It's a good shotgun. The problem is that it shoots slug rounds instead of shells. Pretty much an Assault Rifle.

Recoil in GTA? Wut

I agree, the recoil on this shotgun is a pain in the ass. I find myself missing a lot with this shotty. I guess I May have to try to not hold the trigger down when shooting, and have more patience but more than likely I'll soon be ridding myself of this useless weapon cause it does nothing but get me killed.

I can kill at longer distances with the assault shotgun.

[Mr. Crowley]

Just something else they screwed up.

The fire rate should be waaaay faster if it's supposed to be an auto Saiga 12.

 

...I can shoot my semi auto S12 much faster than this damn thing...and it should have 20 or 30 round drum mags for the extended mags.

I use it as my primary shotgun, its much better than the auto
scrubs who hold the trigger down like the auto shotgun say it sucks, you need to click for each individual shot like a pistol or pump action

[JWeazel]

I like it. But it just seems like everyone loves to use the Assault Shotty because it's easy mode.

[Retired Mafia]

i like the heavy shotgun when i'm in a store robbery spree. but freeroom battles? everybody uses the assault shotgun and it's way easier when the roll.

 

love DM's witg only pump and shawed off shotgun, what's the one in paleto bay called again? shotgun wedding or something...

[twurk]

I have one cuz I like saiga irl, but 6 rounds puts you in a disadvantage against people who use assault shotguns, and extended mag looks dumb as hell.

[hgboy2]

I like assault shotgun when using unlimited ammo

[luisniko]

I really don't see what's the point of this Shotgun.

 

Correct me if I missed something, but Auto Shotty is clearly the way to go.

 

It's not about Auto Shotty is easy or something, but it's practically an all-rounder and I wouldn't pick the less effective when there's a better one.

[Mach1bud]

I like it. Sounds good, and I feel like it is especially brutal at close range.
