The Vickers Spreadshot is a belt-fed 12ga automatic shotgun used in urban combat. Relatively mobile and controllable (due to the low ROF), but highly unreliable. Still, it has proven to be extremely useful in its native urban environment, where close quarters combat is king. It is most effective as a static area denial weapon. Specially designed to be compatible with fin stabilised slugs and incendiary magnesium pellets (the latter usually causing malfunction after a few dozen rounds fired).
