Pump-Action Shotgun

The Pump-Action Shotgun is a class of manually-operated firearm first invented by humanity before the Advent War. It is brutal, effective, and easy to understand. Even in the modern era, the pump-action shotgun remains mostly unchanged from its ancient history.

Pump-Actions are a common find on the backs of colonists, farmers, and survivalists, especially those with human cultural influences.

Pump-Action shotguns are made of steel components and wood/polymer furniture. The shotgun consists of a tubular magazine and a barrel laid parallel to each other with an operating rod that ejects spent shells and loads a new one from the magazine. Shotgun shells can be crafted with many payloads thanks to its large size and low velocity.

I never understood why our IreHeart insisted on carrying his ancient cudgel of a weapon. It was so loud, even when he just works the damn action it was deafening.

Then he used it to behead a Ramscorpion and scare off the rest, and I had to give the couple of assembled tubes and a trigger a bit more respect.
