I try to get an Armbrace and Gyro for my SMG so I can easily whip it out and gun down a Beno if needed, and also add a Bayonet and Rail Flashlight to go with it.
I know that another option would be to just have a pistol as a back up, seeing as it would also solve the ammo storage problem with the ammo going into its holster, unlike the SMG. One thing I was considering was a One-Handed Shotgun with a Recoil Comp and Gyro attached, use a Shell Rig to store tons of ammo, and just hold my shotgun in hand. I guess another option would be to get rid of the Flamer backpack and instead take a Fueltank pouch for ammo storage, as even though I love my flamer, it doesn't score many kills and usually just serves as Area Denial, a way to fuck over runners that try to meme on people, and also a source of damage for me and other ungas to get dragged into after getting yote by a crusher.
TL;DR Is Shotty with Gyro and RC usable onehanded, if not, what's a good side weapon to complement a flamer besides the SMG?
