Reviewing shotguns in Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter 2, including the highly-rated 500 Tactical and the less effective XM-26 LSS.

Shotguns in Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter 2:

  • 500 Tactical: This shotgun is described as the best, though its exact stats are unknown until unlocked. It performed well in the campaign and is rumored to be a good choice for multiplayer, provided it doesn't lead to being removed from a match.
  • XM-26 LSS: This is a poor shotgun with only 5 bullets and inferior stats across the board compared to others. Despite a fast firing rate, it is not a great weapon and is also considered weak by other players.
  • SPAS 12: This shotgun fires slightly faster than the 87MCS and M3.
  • 87MCS: This shotgun is similar to the SPAS 12, making the choice between them largely a matter of aesthetic preference.
  • M3: This shotgun is nearly identical to the 87MCS and SPAS 12, but it is slightly weaker.
Tips
  • The 500 Tactical is the top-tier shotgun, but requires unlocking.
  • The XM-26 LSS is generally considered a weak option.
  • The SPAS 12, 87MCS, and M3 are very similar in performance, with minor differences in firing speed and power.
