The Pump-Action Shotgun is a weapon in Max Payne and Max Payne 2: The Fall of Max Payne.
Characteristics[]
Max Payne[]
The Pump-Action Shotgun functions like many shotguns in the shooter genre. It is strong, packs a good punch at close range, and can be effective at medium distances with headshots. It shines the most in earlier levels, where a single shot can take out mobsters at close range, allowing Max to dispatch a group of them with ease. However, late in the game, several shots may be necessary to kill an enemy. The weapon is carried by many enemies early in the game, who, even on the easiest difficulty, can inflict a great amount of damage to Max in one shot. The Pump-Action Shotgun has a smaller spread than the other two shotguns, requiring more precision and allowing a surprisingly long effective range. The greatest weakness of the gun is its low rate of fire and potentially long reload times.
Max Payne 2[]
In Max Payne 2, the shotgun is noticeably weaker; however, it is still a fairly reliable weapon to use, albeit at a much closer range, and the annoyances from shotgun-wielding enemies are partially relieved. The Pump-Action's shortcomings of the first game are alleviated in part by a faster fire rate, and the quick reload during Bullet Time. It makes its debut early on in the game, where it is useful for heavy-duty fights unsuited for the 9mm Pistol. However, it is soon outshone in terms of damage by weapons such as the Striker and Kalashnikov, and in terms of range and accuracy by the MP5 and the M4 Carbine.
Behind the scenes[]
- The Pump-Action Shotgun is the only weapon in the series to have a serious visual makeover between games: it is based on a Winchester Model 1300 in Max Payne and a Remington 870 (with a folding stock) in Max Payne 2.
