Half-Life: Opposing Force Hints
Shotgun
The shotgun is the weapon that you want to be carrying when you are unsure of the situation you are going to be dealing with. It is powerful and the ammo isn't very difficult to find. It is not very accurate except at close range, though.
Use the shotgun when you want to save the ammunition for some of your other more specialized weapons. The primary attack is a single shot, but the secondary attack utilizes both barrels of the shotgun, producing a powerful double-shot. The shotgun carries 8 bullets at a given time with 125 max. It is not water-resistant.
