Z-180 Close Combat Rifle/Asymmetric Engagement Mitigator

The scattershot is a Forerunner weapon carried by advanced A.I.s. It fires a "scatter" of projectiles towards a target. It is believed to be the counterpart of the M45 Tactical Shotgun, the M90A Close Assault Weapon System, the Type-52 Pistol, theType-2 Energy Weapon/Hammer, and theType-1 Energy Weapon/Sword. It has a magazine size of 5 "shells". So far it only appears in Halo 4.
