The problem here is that people are trying so hard to use a gun that they have no idea how to use.

The Executioner is useful for close-quarters, indoor combat, and for it to be effective, you actually have to do something called aim. A lot of people just assume "Oh, it's a shotgun, which means I can just spray all over place with it". Also, anyone using it needs to keep it's range in mind. Attempting to use it in medium - long range firefights, like so many people do, will just make you look like an idiot.

Short story short: if you run around trying to get kills with the Executioner as if it were any other handgun, you're doing it wrong.
