Template:Ratings Template:New Content Template:Weapon Infobox The M45 Tactical Shotgun is a shotgun used by the United Nations Space Command Army.[1]

Design Details

A blueprint of the M45 Tactical Shotgun.

The M45 Tactical Shotgun is a special-purpose weapon used in any situation where the range of engagement is limited and when over-penetration is not desirable, but maximum stopping power is required.[1]

Gameplay

In gameplay, the M45 Tactical Shotgun is more powerful than the M90 Close Assault Weapon System from Halo 3 and Halo 3: ODST. The rounds are packed closer when fired and the range is superior as well, which makes it harder to hit multiple enemies at close range.
