Title. You know that awful, awful relic of a shotgun that clutters up POI spawns sometimes, but also sometimes doesn't spawn at all? Yes, that one, the one that predates the Double Freedom and is basically its blueprint, in light pen.

Would there be any possibility of making a mod to either have it replace a primary slot weapon, or be a stratagem support weapon you can call in after landing to replace another stratagem weapon?

The latter is probably much simpler, as all you need to do is replace the weapon that physically spawns in the stratagem hellpod with the Break-Action Shottie.

Yes, I really love this thing, and want to have it guaranteed on every mission.

Buff/rebalance for it is optional but would also be appreciated as a mod toggle considering how doodoo it is in higher difficulties, I would love to see people's takes on making it somewhat viable as a support weapon shotgun, something people have been conceptualizing since the disappointment that is the m90a.

Not sure what stratagem to swap it with, probably something equally barely used... Epoch? W.A.S.P launcher? The latter isn't a warbond support weapon so would be more accessible... maybe?

No but seriously, I beg on my knees. The Break-Action Shotgun needs some love after having its renaissance dreams buried by the Double Freedom.
