MILITECH CRUSHER

The very sight of the Militech Crusher is enough to bring a tear to any gun lover's eye. This powerful shotgun, designed for short-range combat, was first created in the year 2020, soon becoming one of the period's most iconic weapons. The version currently available on the market has seen some updates from the original - including a new, modern sight - but its distinctive look remains the same. Once standard-issue among corporate guards, today the Crusher is more popular among mercs with a nostalgic streak.

Behind the Scenes

This handheld shotgun spits out eight-gauge shells as fast as you can pull the trigger while leaving your other hand free for other death-dealing actions. One of the oldest weapons in the game, it is straightforward, yet effective.
