Six-Barreled Shotgun

Conceal Ammo Mode Damage Weight Avail Cost SI Legal RC
- 1(6) SS 16D/16D(f) 14 - 15,000 NA 2-H 4

The SBS fires all six rounds (one per barrel) with one pull of the
trigger. It has a Shock Pad, Gas Vent III, and an Internal Smart Gun
Link. It is designed to be used by a troll. There are 8 points of
uncompensated recoil (a troll's strength should take care of most this
however (see FoF)). Reloading the SBS requires two complex actions
(i.e., two combat phases).

I would suggest that GMs wishing to use this make only one and give it
to the troll henchman (or villain) of your choice.

If a PC wants one of these he will have to find an armor that can make
it for him (and a GM that will let him use it :)

From a tactical standpoint this is a good weapon for the opening
exchange (after which those opponents still alive should be running
like mad or quivering in terror), or something to keep around in case
you really need it.

Actually, I've seen a 4 barrell shotgun before, in RL..

Now, the only question I have is.. If a human or elf buys this
monster, does it come with those nice rear-end pads so you don;t BREAK
YOUR REAR when you land on it after firing this thing?? ;-P
