The metallic cartridges probably are less likely to jam too. Not really a problem.
The thing would be a beast in BRP. Imagine a bust of 20 rounds at 4D6 each? Even those COC beasties that take minimum damage from firearms might be in trouble.  |
The metallic cartridge are because of the heat generated: Plastic casing melt in the chamber. The choice is the same with the HK CAWS and the AIW CAWS. They all fires longer than usual cartridge to avoid loading them in a 'standard' shotgun. The AIW fires flechettes ammo for increased range. The only full auto shotgun that fires standard ammo is the Pancor Jackhammer (because of it's ceramic cassettes).
In addition, all this weapons have a 10 shots mag, and as far as I know, are only capable of short (3shots) bursts.
