I can't remember which Shotgun is in the store, but I go for either the Tactical or the Combat Shotgun with laser sight.

AK with Laser Sight always, plus it's the best gun for scavenge mode.

I do often find myself using the spaz 12 or the Military sniper Rifle

If the rest of my team has AKs, I usually go with an m16 just to be different even if an entire team of AKs would probably be the most efficient team loadout.

If some have shotguns, I'll take the AK.

I like assault rifles.

Combat Shotgun with Laser Sight
I just LOVE the Combat Shotgun
I don't have the best connection per-say, so that works great for me...
sadly, L4D2 kinda pissed itself on my laptop (and any other computer I try and play it on) a few months back, leaving me unable to enjoy mutations and DLC and such...
yeah, it sucks, and Steam Support is useless, so I guess I'm up shit creek unless I either:
A. buy it again
or
B. get a whole new computer... and buy it again...

I either go with the combat shotgun + laser sight or the military sniper rifle + laser sight depending on whether my team already has many people with shotguns or snipers. I hardly take the magnum though because melee weapons are easier for me to use well.

Combat Shotgun with laser sights. Generally I keep whatever melee I had beforehand, but if I did not like it I take the Desert Eagle.

sniper with laser sight because I only use guns for tanks and boomers as I melee everything else.

Laser Sights are always a good idea, since they show everyone else where you're looking. I'd make them an always-on option (even without the superlative accuracy bonus) in Vs.

I do appreciate the AKM 1959 and will take it when feeling indulgent, but if choosing an assault rifle, will usually take the desert rifle (FN SCAR 16S). In Realism, the rhino-hided commons aren't dropped by single AK shots, hence the bursts of three help. Heck, it'll still take two shots from either of the snipers to fell a common in Realism Normal (my usual setting).

My usual job is keeping the Specials off my buds, so I'll take the Sniper Rifle (HK MSG-90A1). The laser is just sauce.[footnote]Witches in Realism don't fall to the usual gun-based solutions,. They kill with one swipe (unless you're incapacitated already) and there are no closets. So the only way to take them out and stay in the game consistently is to burn and run.[/footnote]

Also, if I don't have a bladed melee weapon by then, I'll take the Magnum (1337 PWN Desert Cobra 0.50, only 2000 made!), whose magic bullets do drop commons with a single shot, even to the arm.

It really depends on what other people are using and how I'm felling that day. The AK is probably my favorite thing to run with with I also like using both shotguns if I'm in a tank killing mood.

It used to be the military sniper, I loved that thing to death, and I suck at sniping in every other game.
But yeah, I've since gone cliché and pick the AK, because it's ridiculously useful. It can deal with Hordes (of which there are plenty between the two following crescendo events + finale) and can still save teammates from SIs, from afar, through walls. Best of both worlds.


Apart from that semi-sniper CS weapon whenever a German is on the server, the Scar is the worst POS in the game. I'd rather fight with dual pistols than that thing. Nothing worse than a gun that doesn't shoot when you want it to (or not). Same reason why I don't understand people who take the Tier1 shotgun.

I prefer the Combat Shotgun, cleaning out a horde, crowning witches.

Ofc...I don't venture to the terrains of Expert, my aim is not too good, so while I do hit the zombies, I might strafe fellow team members, and shotty always downs people on expert.
