Shorty
The Shorty is a weapon that is a lightweight version of the Shotgun. It fires 10 pellets per shot. It is extremely powerful when used at close range, but extremely bad when used at long range.
Slingshot
The Slingshot is a rapid-firing weapon that shoots out bouncy balls. The balls can bounce from a surface and hit an opponent, dealing low damage with a high and spammy fire rate. Because of its bouncy tech, it excels in close-quarters combat and bypasses the Katana.
Prime rarity.
