S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Wiki

Saiga D-12 is an automatic shotgun featured in S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl.

Appearances[]

Heart of Chornobyl[]

Based on the AKM-74, this shotgun is favored among stalkers and professional military alike for its prowess as a powerful assault weapon.

Saiga is a strong candidate for the best shotgun in the game - while the Ram-2 deals slightly more damage and is slightly more accurate, Saiga features a detachable box magazine which not only drastically decreases downtime when reloading but also allows the player to quickly switch between shot and slug ammunition.

It is also tied with the SPSA-14 for highest fire rate among all shotguns.
