Yeah, for once Justin is in the right, lol! Truthfully there should be three articles but the weapon titles are all fuzzy. From what i can tell there is the M90 Mk I, II and M90A CAWS. Theres three possible ways to sort this. Either we split them into the Mk. I, II and the A, which is a little wierd, leave it as it is or and i am in favour of this, somebody go ask Bungie, which will sort the matter out. --[[User:Ajax 013|Ajax 013]] 12:03, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

'''Weak Support'''. The Shotgun is properly referred to as the M-90 Mk. I/II/III Close Assault Weapon System. However, we don't refer to the assault rifles, AFAIK, as the MA5B/C Individual Combat Weapons System, which is their proper name. And the proper names of the pistols are the M6C/D/G Personal Defense Weapons Systems, but we don't say that either. And the proper names of the sniper rifles are the 99C/D-S2 Anti-Materiel Sniper Rifle Systems, but we don't use that. The full name of a weapon is not necessarily the name it should be referred by. Wikipedia tends to just use the designation and weapon type. M90 Shotgun is a fine title, but if you want to be maximum specific, say "M90 Mks. I-III CAWS." -[[User:Azathoth|The Dark Lord Azathoth]] 19:54, 4 August 2007 (UTC)

In Halo 1, it fires fifteen pellets every shot. I've tested this repeatedly and have found no variation in the number of pellets. However, in Halo 2, it fires a random number of pellets: 3 to 10, averaging 6 or 7. I never got to fully test the Halo 3 shotgun though, but I'll get around to it ASAP once the game comes out. <span style="font-family: HandelGothic BT; font-size: 12pt;">[[User:Rtas Vadumee|Rtas Vadumee]]</span> 10:32, 1 August 2007 (UTC)

Time for another correction list, I guess.
 
1. True, but this doesn't matter, because of what I have already said.
 
2. This still does not affect recoil directly. It can affect the velocity of the pellets, but that's already covered.
 
3. This does not affect recoil. Same reason as #2.
 
4. This does not affect recoil significantly. The powder's contribution is more momentum to the bullet. Only about half of the powder is actually propelled down the barrel, it doesn't mave but a few grams of mass, and it moves by far slower. It's a small percentage, don't sweat it.
 
5. Regarding #2, #3 and #4, these only affect recoil due to how they affect the velocity of the bullet, NOTHING ELSE, and we already know the end result here, so who really cares? Don't worry about the mechanism here, the result is all that matters in recoil, and the result speaks quite clearly so long as you forget this vain attempt to complicate the issue. It's basic, highschool physics, Newton's 3rd law to be specific, you can handle it within a second without so much as a pencil for aid, why ruin that?

==Real-World Modern Weapon Similarities==
 
It just occurred to me that the M90 CAWS Shotgun (and also the [[M45 Tactical Shotgun]]) have one or more real-world counterparts. I think both shotguns from H3 and HR look very similar to the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benelli_M3 Benelli M3 Benelli M3 Super 90] or the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benelli_M4 Benelli M4 Super 90] shotguns. The only difference is, I believe, that both Benelli shotguns load shotguns underneath, whereas the M90 CAWS and, if I'm not mistaken, the M45 Tactical Shotgun have their shells loaded into a breech above on the top.
