Half-Life: Blue Shift Hints
Shotgun
The double-barrel shotgun is a very powerful weapon, though it is not very accurate at a distance. It holds 8 bullets per clip +125 bullets max. It is not water-compatible. (Trying to use it underwater won't ruin it or its ammo; it just won't fire.)
The double-barrel shotgun is best used for breaking through barriers quickly. It's also a decent weapon for relatively close combat. Don't plan on sniping with it, though.
