Weapon attachments[]
Locations[]
- Amongst the remains scattered around the Bloodcat lair. Requires mending before it can be used.
- In the possession of Kevin "Maddog" Cameron (mint condition)
- In the possession of Jake Cameron.
- Tixa dungeon, subterranean level - there is one in the locker in the center of the area. An enemy soldier often found near this locker has a second gun this type, if you can get close enough to pickpocket it.
- Bobby Ray's Guns and Things (late in the game, five settlements have to be taken over).
- Tony, very rarely, though sometimes he will have CAWS magazines for sale.
Notes[]
- The CAWS possesses very high range for a shotgun, high power, automatic fire mode, and modest handling ability. Its drawbacks are indeed large weight and rarity of both the gun and ammunition to it.
- It makes the best shotgun in Jagged Alliance 2 v.1.12, being on par with submachineguns and weaker assault rifles in terms of combat efficiency.
- This shotgun makes an excellent weapon for breaking ambushes, hunting Bloodcats, and urban/close quarters combat. The energy damage dealt by the high-velocity spray is tremendous, and any enemy it doesn't kill will either be gasping for air, or ducking for their lives, making it also a strong shock weapon.
- Similarly to most shotguns, the CAWS is ineffective against the Crepitus. Apart from requiring to approach them in dangerously close distances, the ammunition does not work well against Crepitus carapace.
