I must say that the shotgun in the picture with a bayonet added is scary.

I have a Maruzen CA870 springer shotgun and definitely recommend it. It shoots far and pretty hard for a springer (300+ fps? if I remember correctly). Only negative is that it doesn't have an adjustable hop-up but there is a site that talks about upgrades to the shotgun (oh yeah, the bb cartridge reduces realism).

Definitely good bang for the buck.

Nice to know,I was thinking of buying one now for cheap till I get my main weapon in 11 months or so.

i like the idea of a mag for it. dont know why.

Its still 6mm right?

Is puting a scope on it worth it or is it not that good of a sniping weapon.

It is indeed 6mm bb's. I don't know how good of a sniping weapon it'll make. My AEG can out shoot the shotgun even though it shoots pretty far. Personally I was thinking of using the shotty as a backup to my sniper rifle. As a range I'd say you should get 100-150 feet (wind dependent) accuracy out of the shotgun which will make it out ranged by most other AEG's or sniper rifles.

P.S. I was thinking of mounting my shotgun on a back sheath (sort of like the hide-away design from Aliens movie).

that would be prity pimp, im looking to get another M11 as a primary because i play indoor FAR more than i play out door. For indoor would you still recoment the CA870 over the super 90 (will be saw'd off)?

When you shoot the super 90 do the 3 bbs stay together or do they all split off.

You know, at this point, go to a game/meet and see if you can try stuff? How else will you know how a gun shoots?

Seems like Maruzen is set to release the CA870 with a factory-installed top-folder:

For CQB purpose, get the grenade launcher. the effect is resemble what a real shotgun should perform

DuffMan December 5th, 2005 07:27

Except, that, y'know, it's a breech-loading GRENADE LAUNCHER.

Skruface December 5th, 2005 07:56

Yeah. I don't think Voodoo is looking to spend a huge pile of cash. Launcher + a reasonable amount of grenades = expensive.

lamlok December 6th, 2005 03:53

The pistol type grenade launcher is not that costly. The main use for this weapon is to surprise your opponent (hide it in your vest, don't use it until the last second.)
You'll see a bunch of surprised and funny face. I think 2 grenade is enough since you seldom have time for reload for this 1 shot, many kill weapon
