Haha, I think overheating kinda implies that your gun won't fire. Ya know, back in mass effect 1? Those obnoxious weapon cooldowns on shotties, Gosh! A shotgun with a hammerhead mod or two, just increase that impact and damage. Next thing ya know, you're launching things into orbit as you one-hit em, but you have to go "oh crap oh crap oh crap" and switch your weapon after that one good blast X3

You may be right, but you do tend to hold a shotgun by the hot end, so you never know.
