Also while trying out sounds to use with the gun I discovered that there is a bug where the shotgun uses the super shotgun pump sound and vice versa.
That sound is pretty fitting, thanks for pointing it out.

The super shotgun and shotgun cock sounds actually used to be switched, but that got fixed without switching the actual sound files. The current sounds are the correct ones, even though they have the wrong file names. Confusing? Yes.
