This might be a bit of a dumb question, but if during the reloading/chambering-a-new-round process, the shooter is at risk from being whacked in the face by a spent shell flying out of the gun, then what's the proper way of holding this shotgun when firing it? Do you aim down the sights and risk getting whacked in the face by a spent shell when you reload? Or do you shoot from the hip? Or when reloading, do you just tip the shotgun away from your head to eject the spent shell away from you? --[[User:ThatoneguyJosh|ThatoneguyJosh]] 00:17, 20 January 2012 (CST) | This might be a bit of a dumb question, but if during the reloading/chambering-a-new-round process, the shooter is at risk from being whacked in the face by a spent shell flying out of the gun, then what's the proper way of holding this shotgun when firing it?

== Number of Rounds it can chamber ==--JonnyCordite 08:28, 8 August 2012 (CDT)
Is it possible to have one in the chamber when reloading? Doesn't the way it reload mean that if one is put into the chamber while reloading it will just grab one from the mag tube and jam?--Gunkatas 03:02, 31 October 2010 (UTC)
- That's a mistake made in the reload in MW2, in real life you can load one in the chamber (making it 6 shots total), but you have to hold down the lifter as you close the action so a jam won't happen. - Gunmaster45
- It is actually possible to chamber 7 rounds. With 5 in the magazine and 1 in the ramp and 1 in the tube. And I believe it will not jam with the hammer half cocked - JonnyCordite 23:25, 8 August 2012 (EST)
What's the point of cutting away the trigger guard?
Is there some kind of advantage to it? For the life in me I can't think of any reason for it. That's One Angry Duck 18:35, 23 December 2010 (UTC)
The only thing I can think of is the Fitz technique; the fact that the guard isn't there allows you to get to the trigger faster. -SasquatchJim.
To my knowledge it's normally most prominantly seen with the enlarged loop to ease with 'flip cocking' to save you fumbling your index finger with the trigger guard after spinning with the other 3 digits - Captain Snikt--86.145.33.181 20:48, 23 December 2010 (UTC)
