"Medium range semi-automatic shotgun. Lethal at close range."
— In-game description

The M1014 is a shotgun featured in Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege. It is available for use by Thermite, Castle, Pulse and Ace.

Overview[]

The M1014 can be considered an average semi-automatic shotgun. With a decent tube magazine capacity, fire rate and decent damage drop off, this weapon is reasonably viable in close-quarters situations, though not nearly as powerful as weapons like the SASG-12 or the FO-12.

However, its difficult to accurately control the recoil of the weapon due to the semi-automatic nature of the shotgun. It is also not entirely advisable to ADS with this shotgun, as its recoil kick will make the gun obstruct line of sight when fired quickly. The recoil pattern is similar to the Super 90.

Pros[]

Good damage dropoff
Average damage per pellet

Cons[]

Low ammo reserve
High recoil kick per shot
