I feel like if I've let anything get close enough to me to have to use a shotgun, I've let my MIDA Multi-Tool down. I try to keep everything at range, but there's nothing wrong using one if I have to. I'm saving up my marks for the New Monarchy one, I love the way that thing looks. edit - I've been seriously contemplating going to the Universal Remote on one of my alts, just to see how well it works after I get it fully upgraded.
