    I think you can also use other type of ammunition to that new weapon. I saw on the big room where two teams preparing the vendors closer to the right doors. There are 3 vendors there for each team and the left ones had some type of slugs and some butterfly (?) ammunition. I think you are supposed to take from there.

    The gun is lackluster anyway, the purpose for it is to be a noob trap. Enjoy your stay.

    ugls have more ammo space, the same iff, and they can hold basically all the grenades this thing can, and they come with an m41 attached to them as well.

    For contrast, this one can't even fit on your back, it's a loadout nightmare, and the unique nades it has are meh. Baton slugs are underwhelming, starshells are good utility but run out fast, and hornet shells are just like bad hefa or directional frag nades

    tldr use the ugl
    Karl Karlsson, the man (and sometimes Captain)
    Maxwell, the synth
    Enhath'vot Guan-Dha, the predator

    noob trap. Just make the UGL hold the new nades and it'll be decent utility but probably less useful than the masterkey because you have to lug around ammo that takes up a small item slot for one shot

    You can load and shoot the flaregun with only one hand and TWO flaregun shot flares lit up just as much as 1 star shell does while flare packs being way more space efficient. Shooting the flaregun onehanded just leads it to go for max range with some deviation but you can just aim at walls to land it short, and then it's loadable without being on hand so you can reload it while it's holstered.

    Also I've been messing around with baton slugs and it's fun to mess around with stunnable T2s with it but it's trash yes.

    Oh by the way, UGL does fit star shells and hornets already, just not batons.
