Firing explosive grenade-like projectiles, this Brute weapon is also furnished with a razor-sharp, stock mounted bayonet used in close-quarters combat. With only four rounds per ammo belt, the Brute Shot is effective, but limited.

NOTE: The fact that I can't use this weapon effectively at all (except for melee attacks) probably isn't nearly enough reason to warrant making changes. The balance of small capacity against the ability to bounce around corners and do significant damage in general works quite well.
