Source review — 10 November 2026: This is an original-game loadout from the dated guide below. Accessible source pages confirm the listed weapon attachment names. Perks and equipment retain their original dated attribution; the source review does not imply hands-on testing or a fresh balance-patch analysis.
The SPAS-12 is the default shotgun, and Altered Gamer says its stats are in all the right places for a starter. It lacks the extremes of later unlocks, but that makes it dependable. In Modern Warfare 2 (2009) multiplayer it is a fine close-range secondary from the first class you make.

No major guide publishes a build for this gun, so this is our suggested setup from its available attachments. The attachment list is a Steam guide's shotgun list (11 June 2018), written per class.
| Slot | Pick | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Attachment | Grip | Shotgun attachment; effect on this gun not listed |
Why this build works
Altered Gamer gives no stat numbers and names no weakness, so this is a mild suggestion rather than a fix. Its general warning about shotguns is the important part: low range and high damage define the class, so stay close and treat anything else as out of reach. Sleight of Hand is useful on shotguns with long reloads, according to its perk guide.
How to play it
Altered Gamer's rule across the class applies: even when a shotgun has good range, stick to close-range shots or you will only wound your target and leave yourself open.
Unlock notes
The default shotgun, per Altered Gamer. The Steam guide places Grip at 75 kills on shotguns.
