"An old-fashioned shotgun. Doesn't hold much ammo, but packs quite a punch." — Inventory description |
The M21 Shotgun is a weapon that appears in Resident Evil 7: Biohazard.
Gameplay
Initially a Broken Shotgun, it is used as a placeholder until the player finds the Model Shotgun. The player can repair the Broken Shotgun by combining it with a Repair Kit; either very early on by sacrificing the M37 Shotgun and broken handgun, or much later without sacrificing the other 2 weapons' availability.
A classic over-under break-action shotgun; holding only 2 shells compared to the M37 Shotgun but offers more firepower per shell, heavier knock back power, and concentrated blast ergo better effective range. Takes up 2 inventory slots.
Its heavier knock back power compliments the P19 Machine Gun well for mid range sustained engagement.
