Wikification required: Replace "Section IV part 4" with actual link
Weapons are pistols, submachine guns (SMGs) and shotguns, as well as grenades. Melee combat "weapons" (empty hands, Hand Razors, Spurs) are also covered for the sake of comparison.
Each entry has a few bars at the top of it. The top bar features the name of the weapon (which includes the type of weapon it is), whether it's legal or Not, and the number of rounds it will hold per clip you load. Note that the Rounds/Clip figure is Not applicable for grenades (which do Not take clips and are always sold in sets of six), Nor is it applicable for the melee "weapons" discussed above (do I really need to explain that one?).
The second bar across the top of each entry has the ratings for Damage and Power. For a refresher on these two stats, check the Notes at the end of the combat section. The Damage rating is shown as it is represented in the pause screen: a bar graph on a scale of 0 to 10. I don't consider myself an ASCII artist by any stretch of the imagination, but the little graphs I provide should be clear eNough. After the bars is the verbal Damage rating seen when buying and selling weapons. After the Damage rating comes the weapon's Power rating, which is verbal only.
The last part of each entry has the sell/buy price schemes for each weapon, which stores you can buy them at, the in-game description, and my personal Notes.

Between this and the other shotgun in the game -- the Roomsweeper -- this is more powerful. I'd still take the Roomsweeper, though, because it holds 60% more ammo per clip while giving up only a little bit of power (You probably won't be able to tell the difference between High and Brutal anyway). Despite the dreadful ammo capacity and the fact that shotguns can't be modified, some people like the Allegiance simply because it's flat-out the most destructive weapon in the game.

This SMG is most favored with Corp security. It is illegal.
|
The best SMG in the game, although SMGs in general aren't that great. Still, the HK227-S has a nice balance of Damage, Power, and ammo, so it's definitely what you'll want to get (and modify) if SMGs are your thing.

It trades firepower for ammo? Actually, it just gives away ammo with No gain in firepower. If you're interested in a pistol, get the Predator -- the same Damage/Power rating, about the same price, the only difference is that the Predator can hold 50% more ammo per clip than can the Max-Power.

This menacing gun is popular among mercenaries.
|
This is the best all-around weapon in the game. Think about it: good Damage, great Power, and you can fire it 15 times before you have to reload. Besides the extremely weak Security 500, that's the most out of any weapon available. And don't start babbling about 30-round SMGs, because we all kNow that they fire three times for each squeeze of the trigger (and almost never hit all three times), thereby cutting the TRUE capacity down by two-thirds. So, anyway, the Predator is a truly worthwhile gun to have, especially when you consider that with a decent Negotiation skill, you can get one for under 500 nuyen. And, of course, pistols can be silenced and otherwise modified, something that even the most expensive shotgun can't claim.

As I explained in Section II, Part 2, shotguns seem alluring but really aren't worth buying. With that said, though, the Roomsweeper is the better of the two shotguns in Shadowrun (the other being the Allegiance). It has great destructive power and can hold a lot more ammo than the Allegiance can. So, if you really must carry a shotgun around, I suggest buying this one.

The most powerful pistol in the game, which also makes it the most powerful legal weapon in the game too. But don't be fooled. It isn't the best. The Predator heavy pistol carries two and a half times as much ammo as this one, and only gives up a little Power to do so. Get that one instead.
