it is buckshot... BUT as said it is not a 12 gauge like normal shotguns but a 4 gauge wich is basically grenade launcher realm, and as a matter of fact this thing can load grenades and be used as a grenade launcher (and that's how the russians use it)
@@opfragile you don't need to be sry, I am, now that that I read again what I wrote it was pretty harshly said. What I meant is "ok that's true but what's your point then" because it felt like there were something missing, like you began an argument but didn't finish it, that's how it felt (that or somebody flexing knowledge which I now know wasn't the case)
remember, it is a 6.3 american gauge shotgun, 4 gauge in european standards that is made from antiair gun barrels that is designed to shoot down low pass aircraft with a solid 23mm diameter slug (which has enough energy to destroy a V8 engine in one shot). These guns are so op that USA banned them. Also imagine being a big mean bully in prison then getting hit by a bean bag from this monster..... also cultist base is very fitting for the brain scorcher, considering it is a base for the monolith
Just slight corrections, this wasn't meant to shoot low passing aircrafts at all but to "supress" riots in prison. They did use or rather recycle 23mm anti-aircraft barrels, not to shoot aircrafts but because those barrels had manufacturing flaws and were therefore unable to be used in their intended gun; and since shotguns have A LOT less internal pressure than your regular rifle (or here canon) they were deemed to be good enough for the job and it therefore also cost less to build the gun. And this gun wasn't SPECIFICALLY banned because it was op (although 4 gauge does open grenade launcher realm with the right ammo, those ammo would have been banned anyway. Leaving us with a normal shotgun that has more firepower but that is tacticaly objectively worse than a 12 gauge due to the recoil, the ammo capacity, the ammo price and availability, ammo choice and training required to even try to shoot it). It was banned by rules that were already in place -> over 20mm diameter RIFLED barrel (banned). It's not only this gun but any of those guns And third the slug doesn't have enough energy to yeet an engine into nothingness but to pierce it and therefore prevent it from working (which is still impressive don't get me wrong but nothing supernatural) But don't get me wrong I find this thing absolutly amazing, it's just that it's not as a shotgun (because it is not good compared to 12 gauge for most people despite the massive firepower) but as a grenade launcher that can be used as a shotgun
There are a few in the U.S. but basically you have to find Ammo that is literally unobtanium and pay a $200 Tax Stamp for a "Destructive Device" same bullshit law also applies to the SPAS-12 as well even though it's a 12 Gauge. The gun in question is called the BFG 1.
i want a mod that says “Your Super Shotgun is nearby, a relic from your past. The priests have kept it hidden from you in this remote location” whenever you come across it
I love the idea of this gun. in a game that kinda felt saturated with bullet sponge like enemies, when you shoot an enemy with this: you know you shot an enemy with this.

Was always one of my go-to shotguns. It is the most powerful shotty in the game, but you have to have some mods that allow access to the ammo, bc it's rare to find. Besides burers, psydos and chimera, it will 1 tape all other muties.
Could be, I take her mostly cuz she's kinda one of the first people you meet, she's one of the few (or maybe only) named npc you can have as a companion and she's the only one who could be described as having some sort of character development, so that's cool

This is not a gun. This thing is officially considered a cannon since its calliber is more than 20mm. But the abbreviation KS-23 means a Carbine Special - 23 mm. Such is the twist of the Soviet militia. Usefull when the violator of traffic rules is on a tank. Also one of the reasons why people don't joke with the tax service.
This gun is what made Nardnaya Soljanka/Cumulative Pack 2(for SOC) playable late game when hordes of librarians , venoms and...deathclaws(courtesy to Fallout) would die in one or two shots...the price for 10 rounds was around 20 k rubles...`nouf said...

this gun was so orgasmic, a few months ago, decided to go on and raid the chernobyl sacrophagus along with strelok, stitch and rogue, took a ks23 with a shitload of shrapnel-25 and barrikada ammo, i even felt pity for those monolith freaks, even the 25 shrapnel was enough to destroy them, if one of those freaks was wearing an exoskeleton or a nosorog then only barrikada would work, other than that, shrapnel-25 did destroy them all, it was a pleasure, one weapon was enough to destroy almost all enemies, then gamma got updated, and sadly they nerfed the ks23 a lot, so i went from destroying the sarcophagus enemies, to actually have to change weapon and forget the ks23 as an invading weapon entirely, what a dissapointment 😥😥😥😥😥😥
so this is pretty much a shotgun in real life. fun fact with shotguns, the pellets keep fucking going at the same speed and a 00 buck pellet has about the same mass as a 5.56 round so ONE pellet is enough to kill you, 00 buck has 8-9 pellets per shell so yeah....your chances of death is high unless you are at least 50 yards away and even then it will still hurt. the shotguns you see in movies and shit is typically birdshot witch is only deadly to point if shot in the head at point blank and maybe even then cuz it fires a bunch of little baby pellets that bounce around in the barrel and lose alot of energy by the time they leave it, its made for babies who have trouble hitting small moving objects from far away
(Russian T.O.Z. Engineer see a ZSU-23-4 AA tank for the first time) “Hey ! Let’s make that but in police shotgun version. The KS-23 !!!” 😂 Me: Uses the KS-23, cause you never know when you need to stop a truck and an elephant in one single shot. 😂
