20110715 Semi-auto Shotgun

N.B. TreviaBot92 made this lovely suggestion but abandoned it, so I've put it up for voting. The following suggestion is his words, aside from my italic comments

Suggestion type

Suggestion scope
Survivors

Suggestion description
The idea here is purely extended capacity. It's a shotgun that cycles each shell through some mechanism, be it gas, recoil, spring, whatever you imagine. It'll behave just like the current shotgun except that it can load six shells instead of two. Now, obviously, because of the mechanics involved to allow for this action to work, I'd say that the new shotgun should be half again as heavy as the current shotgun, and in order to have six shells, two AP needs to be spent to load the first shell, as you need to open the bolt to do that (unless y'all think the bolt should lock open when the gun's empty). I'm thinking same accuracy, same damage, and about twice as hard to find; it uses the same ammunition and skills, after all, and it has a higher capacity, why shouldn't it be harder to find? What do y'all think?

P.S. Treviabot uploaded some lovely pictures of his sofa and some of his crazy guns that are civilian weapons because they don't have extra shells in them (im british and dont know anything about guns but i think this was the gist) please look at them before voting because he seemed to think it was important we saw his sofa and also something else about mexican people (maybe the guns are to keep them off the furniture)

Keep Votes

1. Keep - Nice suggestion all round good I like it --Karloth Vois ^¯\(°_o)/¯ 04:29, 15 July 2011 (BST)
2. Keep – Obvious improvement, really. Should have been suggested years ago. ᚱᛁᚹᛖᚾᚨᚾᛏ
3. Keep - Nice way of balancing it, and all over a nice alteration to the current shotgun. No-brainer, really. ▼Lintire▲{talk}▼ 05:24, 15 July 2011 (BST)
4. Keep - That really is quite a lovely couch. --Karek^{maps 2.0?!} 07:20, 15 July 2011 (BST)
5. Keep - I don't know why this wasn't created when the game was started. --Ash  ^{|  T  |  яя  |} 10:57, 15 July 2011 (BST)
6. Keep - Simply Ah-mazing. Hail treviabot!       12:19, 15 July 2011 (BST)
7. Ah so me rikey 16:51, 15 July 2011 (BST)
8. Keep - What are the odds a rational suggestion will get implemented though? --Uroguy^TMZ 18:31, 15 July 2011 (BST)
9. Keep - The shotgun idea is good, obviously and it's pathetic that no-one has ever thought of it before. However, what's most important to remember is that every keep vote for this suggestion is also a vote in favour of Kevan introducing awesome couches that look like migraine auras into the game. --Papa Moloch 00:44, 16 July 2011 (BST)
