    Question for Shotgun fans

    The euro forces shotgun has a weaver scope-mount.

    why? I'm not much of a shotty fan IRL, so is there anyone who can tell me why you'd need a scope mount on a shotgun?

      The spec's read that this shotgun is capable of uesing different types of rounds & if my memory serves me corectly the last time I shot a magnum round ( from a shotgun ) it was pretty dead on at quite a distance & a scope would have been nice to have.





      I'd love to have my old USAS-12 back or for that matter a DAO-12.

        I remember the USAS it was in SOF2, ravensheild etc people always called it the noob gun, same with the M60, they were alright though, USAS was like a auto-shotgun.

          lmfao, nice.

          And yeah pretty much for aimpoints and stuff CQC things, as some dont have iron sights on the end.

          But anyway, people put add ons onto anything these days its stupid.

            people think shotguns are inaccurate because in ALL the games they are allways horribly inaccurate, in real life they are far less inaccurate.

              The benelli m4 is the genral issue shot gun for troops in iraq now. It should be held like rifle in EF since it has very low recoil in Real life.

              I got his info from Mail call on the history channel! LoL gotta love the H channel

                my remington 870 sps has a mid range scope on it! i have a fully rifled barrel and use sabot rounds as well as slugs...

                using sabots @ 100 yards my grouping is around 5" dia

                it just gives you a better range to "reach out and touch someone" with!!

                especially since i live in NJ and you cant hunt with any decent rifle

                there is always a way around something!!!

                      If my memory serves me well, there is only one personal firearm can fire SABOT, the JS 1.27 mm sniper rifle from China.

                      And what's the point of HUNTING with SABOT?

                      on top, there are two possiblities

                      1. maybe it's a red dot?
                      2. scope for the usage of slugs.

                        i used to watch mail call but cant find it anymore.

                        too bad nobody uses shotguns in armies anymore... you made it sound like every marine and serviceman gets a M4, which is complete bs.

                        also, M4 generally refers to the M4A1 carbine, a short version of the M16 used for spec ops work that you recognize from USMC m4.

                          a sabot is a rifle round cased in plastic inside a larger shell....tanks use them my shotgun uses them....you can buy them from the store...all it does is allow you to use a rifle round in a shotgun...thus allowing me to get around NJ nor rifle laws when hunting...hence allowing me to use a scope on a shotgun to get a greater range out of a short to mid range weapon

                          the cases of sabots i buy say sabot on the box...!
                          shotguns can use them because they have a larger barrel

                          hope this helps!

                            oh. actually you are right. the SABOT referring to should have been AFPFDS (or something like that) that's armor penetrating SABOT.
