Overview:
PROS:
- High Knockback
- Very Accurate
- Reloads Quickly
CONS:
- Short Effective Range
- Low Capacity
- High Ammo Cost
TACTICS:
This weapon's extremely high accuracy means very few of its high damage bullets will be wasted, and it can put out quite a lot thanks to its high attack speed and large magazine, allowing it to efficiently take out any zombies within its admittedly short effective range.
Recommended gear:
- Ammunition Mods increase its damage, allowing it to bring down zombies more quickly and efficiently.
- Extended Mags allow it to fire off even more of its high-powered rounds before needing to reload, reducing the chance that a zombie makes it to its wielder.
- Glasses compensate for its short range, allowing its wielder to more effectively engage zombies from further away.
- Bandoliers reduce the time needed to reload, allowing the wielder to be less vulnerable.
BACKGROUND:
The Sportshot 45's extremely high accuracy means that a low amount of its expended ordnance with fail to hit the enemy, and it is able to sustain this output due to its high attack speed and large magazine, allowing it to efficiently take out any infected within its operationally short effective range.
