The DRS-12 is a shotgun featured in The Last Stand: Dead Zone.
Background
Born in the unstable '80's of South Africa, this cylinder-fed 12-gauge shotgun was designed for riot control and urban combat purposes. The first few iterations had flaws with the reload system and fire selection, but have since been corrected to result in a most deadly close-quarter weapon.
A rare firearm, it can be found in the hands of some military units and police forces.
Tactics
The Last Stand: Dead Zone
This gun easily shreds the undead with its fully automatic fire, high damage output and a quickly reloaded magazine. It does, however, have poor accuracy compared to other shotguns, and has a short effective range like all other shotguns. Giving it to a survivor with a high Ranged Combat skill is recommended.
Recommended Gear
- Glasses improve its short effective range, allowing the wielder to engage targets from a safer distance. Some variants will also boost its accuracy.
- Weapon Cleaning Kits compensate for its low accuracy, making it viable to give it to a survivor with a low Ranged Combat skill.
- Extended Mags increase the size of its magazine, reducing the amount of time the wielder is left vulnerable.
How to Obtain
- It can be scavenged during Level 23+ missions.
- Level 23 Quiet Quick Load variants can be crafted using a DRS-12, 32 Machined Parts and 2 Trigger Systems at a Level 9+ Weapons Bench for 28 after scavenging the required schematic. Also requires a Level 23+ Engineer and Scavenger.
- Level 23 Quiet Quick Action variants can be crafted using a DRS-12, 60 Machined Parts and 2 Trigger Systems at a Level 10+ Weapons Bench for 40 after scavenging the required schematic. Also requires a Level 23+ Engineer and Scavenger.
