Most Popular Shotguns in PUBG Mobile
As the only automatic shotgun available in PUBG Mobile, the S12K seems to be a clear contender for the shotgun champion title. It offers a quick solution for those who aren't fond of single-shot or double-barrel shotguns like the S1897 and S686. However, the biggest drawback of the S12K is its recoil, leading to a lack of weapon control. While it's a great shotgun for firing, it can disappoint if you can't manage its accuracy.
- Ammo Type: 12
- Damage: 22
- Magazine Capacity: 5
- Range: 25-25
- Reload Speed: 350
- Firing Rate: .250s
2. S1897
S1897 is another short-range combat shotgun with similar magazine capacity to the S12K, favored by enthusiasts. However, it also requires control like other semi-automatic weapons. It's our preferred choice when it comes to hunting shotguns in PUBG Mobile. Mastering its effective use can save you from many deaths in high-density combat areas. Its biggest limitation is the long reload time; S1897 will require time in intense combat moments.
- Ammo Type: 12
- Damage: 25
- Magazine Capacity: 5
- Range: 25-25
- Reload Speed: 360
- Firing Rate: .750s
3. S686
The S686 is the sole double-barrel shotgun in PUBG Mobile, ideal for those seeking a high-frequency short gun capable of firing two shots at enemies swiftly. While it boasts a faster firing rate than the S12K, its major drawback is the constant need for reloading, which can be risky in situations with numerous surrounding enemies. Nonetheless, the S686 remains an excellent short gun if you can manage reloading on the fly, boasting the fastest reload and firing rate among the three shotguns in PUBG Mobile.
- Ammo Type: 12
- Damage: 25
- Magazine Capacity: 2
- Range: 25-25
- Reload Speed: 370
- Firing Rate: .200s
Although these are the top 3 short guns in the game, if you still desire the comfort of a short gun in combat, you can always pick up a sawed-off shotgun to replace your sniper rifle. This provides you with an option to deal with surrounding enemies.
