That's why if I want a shotgun, I just get it as an attachment on an AR. I mean shotguns are excellent CQ weapons, but that limits the effectiveness of a soldier in-theater with a shotgun. And there is a drum mag for the AA-12, I"m not sure about purchasing them or such. Anyway I think most will agree that assault and battle rifles are generally the most effective weapons out there.
