The release of the Reclaimer 18 Shotgun, also known as the SPAS-12 in previous CoD titles, was highly anticipated in the MW3 Season 4 Reloaded update. However, the new iconic gun has been met with numerous issues, including “inconsistent”damage, which has greatly disappointed fans.
Despite its past dominance in titles such as 2009’s MW2 and 2011’s MW3, the weapon is now struggling to keep up with its counterparts and other close-range choices. This has resulted in players sharing clips showcasing its poor performance in multiplayer.
In a post on Reddit titled “Reclaimer is not very effective lol,” user DeminoTheDragon uploaded a video demonstrating how the gun only gives hitmarkers and fails to eliminate enemies from close range, even though this is typically the suggested distance for using Shotguns.

Similarly, another user shared their experience in accordance with the sentiment, stating that they have also encountered point-blank hitmarkers like the OP, but have also experienced 17m one-shot kills, dubbing it the “most inconsistent shotgun since the original MW3.”
This immediately caused players to suspect that the Reclaimer 18 might be riddled with bugs. On June 26, the CoD development team posted on an X forum that they had corrected the Shotgun’s “sprint to fire speed penalty on the Center Mass Grip Tape,”reducing it from -86% to -16%.
“According to a player’s comment in response to the Reddit post, the gun has a significant issue with its accuracy while aiming down sights and firing from the hip. Another user also expressed their disappointment, speculating that there may be a problem with the gun’s damage that will hopefully be addressed and resolved soon.”
On the other hand, some players argued that the key to achieving consistent results with the weapon is by aiming down sights, as there is a noticeable difference in spread between aiming down sights and shooting from the hip.
Despite the lack of additional information on the damage or other statistics affected by the Shotgun bug, players have expressed their belief that the weapon’s performance should be improved. Some are even anticipating the Shotgun to dominate the close-range meta in Season 4 Reloaded.
