Description

A western revolving shotgun has a loop lever below the handle, which in order to cycle the drum is pushed away towards the barrel, then pulled back to the handle. Priming the gun takes a move action. The revolving shotgun is primed by pulling back the hammer on the top of the gun. The revolving shotgun has a drum which allows it to fire 6 times as a standard action without reloading. The revolving shotgun fires in a cone 25 ft long by 10 ft wide; damage applies to all targets not obscured in that cone. Reloading a shotgun takes 6 shotgun shells, is a full-round action, and provokes attacks of opportunity.

If a revolving shotgun is fired at a target beyond 25 ft, not only do the default penalties apply, but the damage is reduced to 1d4 due to the distance reducing the number of hits.
