What is the GDP Oil Platform gun, the Supercharger?

Here's what you need to know about the reward, the GDP Oil Platform gun, the Supercharger:

  • Attachment mods: Buckshot Rounds (high-damage close-range high spread pellets), X-Large Classic Suppressor (greatly reduces weapon noise and impairs effective range)
  • Mods: Fast Reload (improves reload speed), Keep it Cool (improves suppressor cooling rate)

If you're a firm believer that shotguns can be used at long-range and for stealth, the Supercharger approves this theory. It doesn't have the reach of a rifle, but it will take down enemies in both short to mid distances without a problem - making it a superb addition to your arsenal.
