The DS-117 combat shotgun is a weapon in the 2016 Doom game. Forged from a quality titanium-steel alloy, its qualities include high reliability, a fast rate of fire, and high-velocity, high-impact shot.[1] Like most of the weapons in this incarnation of Doom, the combat shotgun can be modified and upgraded with attachments which impart special capabilities beyond the base weapon's attack characteristics. It is more limited in effective range than its classic counterpart, though not quite to the extent which the Doom 3 version suffered.
One notable cosmetic aspect of the shotgun is that the chamber is located at the upper portion the weapon instead of below of the weapon, which is revealed in a hidden reload animation which can be seen using glitches.
