Model 50 "Intimidator" Shotgun
Type: Shotgun Conceal: NA Mode: SA Ammo: 8 (magazine) Damage: 9S
Weight: 4 Cost: 580 nuyen Availability: 6/7 days Street Index: 1.5
The Intimidator is a pump-action shotgun with a built-in laser sight. Designed primarily as a security weapon, the Intimidator makes a good hunting weapon.

The Model 60 is a hunting gun for the woods or the urban jungle. Unfortunately, the sawed-off version is popular with streetgangers because of its intimidating appearance and devastating one shot stop.

It is available in a sawed-off version at a concealability of 6 and a damage of 8S/10S (Street Index .5).

Firearms Accessories
Heavy Duty Shockpad
Mount: NA Conceal: NA Rating: 2 Weight: .35 Availability: 4/24 hours
Cost: 300 nuyen Street Index: 1
Just a stronger version of the same accessory seen in the Shadowrun II equipment section.
Weighted Barrel Compensator
Mount: Barrel Conceal: -1 Rating: see below Weight: see below Availability: 5/48 hours Cost: see below Street Index: 1
Rating 1: Weight - +.25; 150 nuyen
Rating 2: Weight - +.35; 200 nuyen
Rating 3: Weight - +.45; 250 nuyen
Regular recoil compensation is usually achieved by cutting small ports in the barrel to direct escaping gasses upward to counter muzzle climb. The problem with that kind of compensation is that you can't silence your weapon. That escaping gas is rather noisy. By adding a weighted extension to the end of the barrel you get the same effect as porting the barrel, and the compensator can be threaded to accept a silencer.
