How to get it
Unlocked in the shop by maxing the Ithaca M37: ₦30,000. Since the Ithaca's last upgrade opens at 6-2, on a first run it is 6-2 onward.
Verdict
The best shotgun in the game after a ₦124,000 investment: a post-game weapon.
Shop: it arrives with every upgrade on sale.
- Triple barrel. Chris holds it one-handed, side-on.
- Do not pair it with the Gatling Gun: the ammo pack blocks its aim.
- Slow reload: combining the shells in the real-time inventory skips the animation, and cancelling the reload into a melee also cuts it short.
- One source charges ₦4,000 for Firepower 330 (₦125,000 total); three sources say ₦3,000.
