>shotguns in combat become a war crime again How does it the

Assuming they can still be used as breaching aids, literally nobody would even notice the difference.

you're a retard. we don't use shotguns for anything other than breaching barring an emergency.

This. Shotguns aren't really used that much anyways, and if a couple hajis get "breached" themselves in the process is anyone really going to notice?

nah m8 its no euphemism, breaching means breaching. they're just for shooting hinges, as a general rule the guy who blows the door is one of the last to actually enter the room.

Shotguns in combat were never considered a war crime. Butthurt Huns tried and failed to get that to pass.

Considering he's trained to get clear so the pointman can get in he better be the last one.

Using shotguns has never been considered a war crime. The Germans wanted to make using shotguns a war crime after they encountered US troops using them in WWI, but they didn't get their way, probably because they lost the war and the winners are the ones who usually make the big decisions after a war.

But to answer the question, it doesn't effect much. Shotguns are usually only used in modern military forces as personal defense weapons for vehicle crews, door breaching, and clearing the room that they used the shotgun to breach the door of. A carbine or SMG can be used in CQB just as effectively as a shotgun and a breaching charges can be used to breach a door just as effective as a shotgun loaded with breaching shells.
