Default HSG-1 needed modifications

-Remove the ridiculous robotic-ish charge sound made on reload. Seriously.

-Change the name to something else than HSG. This really just confuses people in regards to the Hunting Shotgun's name.
I perfectly know this was done to avoid problems with Kel-Tec, but really there are other names possible than this one.

I actually haven't noticed the sound too much, but I agree the name needs to be changed. It is quite confusing. We have PSG, CSG, HSG, AA, and... HSG? That's not helpful. :c

Omg it should be renamed SFS-1 instead.

I suspect that another factor that led to the new name is that it's notably different from the real KSG, with its detachable box magazines. KF guns usually don't have realistic damage or capacity, but otherwise TWI keeps their realism at a moderately high standard. Saying that the IJC KSG is a fictional horzine weapon, instead of saying it is a KSG, maintains that realism standard.


And about the electronic beeping sounds, they are at least of nice quality. I think if those just got moved over to the M7A3, which actually has some electronics on it, ones relevant to the magazine, even, it would make sense. But it's not a huge deal.

Yes it's a huge deal good god

And the KSG can be fit with box mags, but that doesn't matter since keltec guns are a pile of garbage.

Yes please remove the reloading sound. Every time I reload I end up looking for what is beeping before remembering my gun. As for the name, I always called the hunting shotgun HS and not HSG so I am not as bothered by the name. Still, I do find the name lacking and a bit out of place.

Now that's an idea I like.

Is it really possible to change pellet spread on the fly with the press of a button?

No, he meant in real life.

And yes it would be possible, as the KSG has two tube mags and it seems you can put 00 in one and maybe 000 in another

You can use 2 types of ammo and you need to pump in real life to feed a new round from the other tube, which ejects the previous not fired round and makes you practically lose it.
