What's your favorite shotgun and why?

I love the KSG, the AA, the SPAS and the USAS and have them all gold but i would have to say my favorite is the SPAS. This was my first gold shotgun and its just so much fun to hear people rage when i one shot them from far away. When you but range on it you get the range of the MW2 SPAS but not the damage. Damage give you the damage of the MW2 SPAS but not the range. It's a fun gun and a nice throw back gun. It's not for people who like easy mode like near everyone does. So whats your favorite shotgun?
Guess no one on the fourms like shotguns. I am the 1%.
I like the KSG. I prefer it with Damage and perhaps a grip(heard it tightens spread) or E-Mags. Or, I use KSG with silencer and range. I don't bother with the Model, SPAS or AA-12 because I take a little pride in my K/D ratio and I prefer to have a fair fight, not endure an uphill battle.
Dont use the ksg with the grip, It doesnt do anything! Not even reduce visual kick! However it for some reason makes the reloads slower so you might as well use it naked!
My personal favorite is the Model 1887. I think it looks hawt
.
P.S. - I have every gold shotgun.

Striker is the only one i care for, esp with extended mags and damage.
The AA-12 baby!
Why? For a few reasons:
- Not a lot of people use it so I get to feel special and unique
- It, for me, breaks the monotony of using AR's and SMG's
- It puts people on their a*ses
- It looks cool, sounds cool
- It pisses people off, making it an effective psychological weapon
- And finally, because 30'000 kills, 18 moab's, and a 2.46 k/d later, I'm not even close to being bored of using the AA-12, I can't say that for anything else.
AA12 was my favorite shotty, alongside 1887 akimbo so props to you for carrying the torch!
Hey thanks man. You know its nice to get some haters calling you whatever they can blurt out because you use a shotgun, but its even better to get praise from somebody.
I've had fmg9 akimbo people rage at how my naked aa-12 is "noob friendly, op and needs serious nerfing" Nothing is more satisfying than hearing idiots say that.
I agree, most of my team does as well, that FMG's are easily the most "noob friendly" if not overpowered weapons in the game. But I don' care, I'm not holding my breath for IW to nerf them beceause I've been doing good enough recently, that they don't bother me anymore.
Heres to the AA-12 and its other buck shot kin *raises glass*
I just cant see the point in having close range primaries when you can have very effective cqc secondaries. Not fair, but thats how it is.
i would say the spas as i like the look or it, but unfortunately it and the model and the ksg are inconsistent as hell, and no one at infinity ward will take 1 minute out of their day to fix it, so i guess i'll say the usas as it's not the striker and it's usuable
Yeah, I tried running the 3 of them and at one point, I could longshot someone, then when I come across an identical situation and shoot, I only get a hitmarker or even nothing at all. Sometimes I could even be right up close and only get a hitmarker or even nothing.
The USAS has become my favorite shotgun though.
Decent rate of fire (faster than pumps, but slower than Striker and AA-12). Decent reload time, more consistent, mobility is still high, range (even before the Range Proficiency) and accuracy is still pretty good. Have beaten countless Striker hoarders and AA-12s with 1 good shot while they charge and spam fire, then accused of being a cheater, lol.
*THUMPTHUMPTHUMPTHUMPTHUMPTHUMP CRACK!!!!!!!* Down they go, lol.
I've been using the USAS. It's the first shotty that I've actually put a good amount of time into, pretty close to gold now. The pump actions are satisfying but in my limited experience thus far... very, very very unreliable.
I got a few of my clanmates using the AA-12 now, and shotguns in general
2 of them use the USAS
and the other 2 use AA-12's because of me
All of them seem to like it too
Its not uncommon for people to use Strykers just moments into the game because of me and my AA-12.
Decided to run the AA-12 again, man it was horrible! I got 6 hitmarkers on one guy!! SIX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
KSG-12 is my number one gun, at a little over 2500, and got almost 700 kills with the AA-12 so I think I'm qualified to say that this gun blows ass, and that 9blackguys must be some kind of god.
Aw hey thanks man, perhaps we should play together sometime?
2 of my guys, one of them my brother, use the KSG-12
My brother, is amazing with it, but he hasn't played in over a month ![]()
My friend uses it as well, but he doesn't do very well with it. He likes using the KSG anyway though, so I tell him "Just wait 'till you unlock damage"
Sure, why not. The reason I stuck with that shotgun is because my kills are quite consistent with it. I tried the Model and the SPAS, but I can't get a feeling for a OHK range. KSG with Range and Silencer is fairly consistent too, provided you land a few pellets.
VIMS:That's weird, because I rarely get one shots with the SPAS! My KSG seems to drop people!
Yeah my gamertag is STATUS TANK
I wasn't initially all about shotguns. I was using LMG's, but I was underperforming, so my older bro told me:
"hey man, use a rifle or something else, lmg's SHOULD be great, but they're not and you have to accept that if you want to excel"
So I tried the Mk. 14, used that for a bit, I think 2 weeks, got my first moab with that. However, it got boring because I noticed I had a tendency to camp choke points. So I challenged myself to find something a bit more unique and eccentric, rather than using just another monotonous AR or SMG. Thats how I came across shotguns, but it didn't take me long to find out that the AA-12 pleased me the most ![]()
I wanted to use the Model, but it's slow RoF and horrible consistency forced me to avoid single-action shotguns. Not caring for the USAS and frowning upon Strykers, I landed on the AA-12, and I love it so much.
Makes me wish there was a "Double Tap" perk or profficiency that you could put on single-action shotguns, that IMHO, would actually be better than tweaking their statistics.
Favorite shotgun....the Spas-12.
Not going to lie but I've been getting more consistant one-hit kills with the Spas-12 (no damage/no range) compared to the KSG-1 with Damage.
Not looking forward to ranking up both the AA-12 & Model 1887 though.
VIMS:That's weird, because I rarely get one shots with the SPAS! My KSG seems to drop people!
Yeah, I didn't realise how consistant the Spas-12 was for me once I started using it after the shotgun patch.
Take this clip I uploaded with a Spas 12 with no damage/range:
And this happens often whether I'm 3 or 4 barring. Suprising thing is that a majority of the time, it's a one-hit kill with a number of longshots without damage/range.
This is what I get with a KSG-1 with Range:
That Spaz was f*cking sh*t up! Gettin' range on some of those kills! All I'm thinking is "Wtfbbqomgrofl" on a couple of those longshots.
I'll stick with my AA-12, but man that thing is a beast

Me with the spas before the buff
The Spas for sure. I just wish it wasnt so bad.
The KSG is by far the best shotgun ever!!!!! I use it plain right now, but need damage on it. LOVE THE KSG SO MUCH.
-Striker is an overpowered peice of ****.
Striker needs some kind of firing cap on it at least. Faster than the USAS-12, but slower than the AA-12 or something.
Yes I agree, a modded controller user with a Stryker can steam roll teams with minimal effort or difficulty
