Post by Dubitabilus »

Maisto 12 GA Semi-Automatic Shotgun
Featuring a three-shot mag, this gas-operated semi-automatic shotgun allows the quick-fire action needed when hunting birds, ducks, and turkey.

This shotgun works with all 12ga ammo types and the receiver is grooved to accept optics.

Whether it is upland hunting, waterfowling, or at the sporting clays range the Maisto 12 GA Semi-Automatic provides unbeatable performance as well as great value out of the box.

Note: All variations of the Maisto 12 GA Semi-Automatic shotgun share the same weapon skill. This means that you do not need to start over when buying an additional variation.

The oil-finished wood stock together with proprietary steel blends, make this gun resistant and tough, yet lively in the hands.
See the "Wood" version here in the store.

The rugged, weather-resistant black synthetic stock together with proprietary steel blends, make this gun resistant and tough, yet lively in the hands.

Wooden and metal parts have been hand-decorated with beautiful carvings and engravings, for those hunters who want their weapon to be elegant in the fields, as well as performant.
See the "Engraved" version here in the store.

It is true as you say that the skills are shared between all the variants and therefore if you buy another of the available versions you do not have to start over but it is equally true that unfortunately they also share the catches and once the 1,000 harvested have been made you do not will no longer have any benefit in terms of hunterscore at this point why on earth buy a second and worse yet a third? Since that bad modification was made, i stopped buying weapons with different skins, no longer making any sense in my humble opinion...

I think it's because the hunter and steam achivements work for all 3 variants.

You might buy all three if you enjoy using different versions, if you are a collector, or if you care about achievements and the badge on your profile. Some people do buy all three versions, some don't. What's the issue?

Well you go on and on wondering why buy multiple weapons of the same type, so I thought I'd give you a few ideas. :P

Rated poor (engraved version).

Because for me it has the highest FPS drop of all shotguns, if I consecutively fast shoot/reload while moving the mouse rapidly in iron sight view.
