Am I the only one frustrated with these weapon names? First we had things like, "MP5 Assault Rifle" and "Old Fashioned Assault Rifle" when clearly both are SMG's, now calling it a "Buckshot Shotgun" to me, is like saying, "Bullet Rifle," "Arrow Bow," "Bladed Machete," or "Pointed Spear."

I fire a variety of rounds out of shotguns that are not buckshot. But perhaps a better name would have been "Wide-Choke Shotgun" because the wide-caliber rifles are basically narrow-choke shotguns (Old Farmhand actually has shotgun art, even).

I'm aware of that.... but why have the Trusty Farmhand function like a rifle when we already have every other Hunter weapon functioning that way (straight line that goes through multiple targets) and I see no sights on the barrel of the Trusty Farmhand like I do on a Remington 870 Police Magnum? Wouldn't it make more sense to call Alpha's shotgun a, "Side by Side shotgun," "Double Barrel shotgun," or just, "Alpha's shotgun?"

Petty and minor continuity issue, I know.... but it irks me to no end!!! Somewhat non sequitur.... but I'm beyond irritated and still puzzled as to why, when starting out, Assaults have powerful weapons available at smaller levels. For example AK rifles (i.e. Republika AR, FRN-78) which are more powerful than 5.56 rifles (i.e. Liberators, Frontiers,) should be what are offered as player levels increase. Uzi's and MP5's should be what earlier level Assaults start out with....

Really want to pull your hair out? Read the Kirkman/Bonansinga books. Those guys clearly don't know shit about firearms.
I also like the suggestion of just naming it Alpha's Shotgun, like how we have Beth's Scissors.
But.....t........
Ummmm....... I don’t think the visual is the issue, it’s the name...... and that’s a dick of a bat right there. Lol
