So if the shotgun is nerfed because it was meant to be close combat then why do snipers have scopes for mid range and even AND SHORT ( meaning close quarters) range scopes. It should be long range ONLY then just to be fair. I mean since no one will play with the shotgun anymore, as it will be nothing more then a melee (joke). Seriously though, take trials for example...those who love shotguns will have minimal chance of getting kills especially since these close range scopes are in effect PEOPLE WILL CAMP THEIR SPWAN POINTS and just wait with their snipers because hey, no reason to worry about shotguns getting in any kind of range to do kill damage. HMMM...I wonder why call of duty dont just dont go, hey lets nerf the AK considering sidearm is not exactly as leathal...heck while we at it lets nerf the rockets so that can be equally as strong as the knife...Hunters throwing knife sure has range a shotgun wont have. Im just saying
