I am going to need input from weapons experts on this one. Projectile weaponry isn't in my wheelhouse.

The brass knuckles will hinder holding the gun. If the shock is used at T-0 with the spread of the spas its all over. 39 feet is good enough. Great matchup though, neither will have time to get to a tree to hide. I'm taking the spread of the shotty in this one.

This.

[TLO]

I'm also going with the spray of the Spas here.

I only wish Beef Supreme would have gotten "thigh bone from a large ape" as his backup weapon.

[Beef Supreme]

Hobo with a shotgun, and a shock collar. I am taking all comers.

[Rain Man]

My assumption is that AndChiefs' best strategy is to turn and run as fast as possible in the other direction until he can find a tree. If he can do that, then he's got 20 shots and presumably more accuracy. But the hard part is going to be those first ten steps, I guess.

That strategy is instant death at that close range.

My weapons expertise is mostly in ape bones.

So presumably this is a five-second shootout?

[Hydrae]

The only way AndChiefs wins this is if his finger is on the trigger with his AK aimed at Beef so that when Beef uses the shock collar AndChiefs' finger spasm fires his weapon.

Either that or they will both be on the floor at t=+2 seconds.

[Bwana]

At that distance, Shotgun over AK, if it was 100 yards, AK all day long. Brass knuckles are also going to hinder access to the trigger.

Question for other/future matchups: does the competitorr have the option to shed a backup weapon or use said weapon differently? e.g. toss the brass knuckles so he can use the AK unhindered? Or use the AK as a club once the bullets are depleted. (a-la the old 70's cop drama criminal ploy: unload the pistol at the cops, when no shots find their mark, throw the empty gun at them like a rock.)

[Graystoke]

Shotgun and mild shocker got this

Throwing the gun always bothered Super man for some reason. He would let the bullets bounce off his chest, but he hated getting hit by thrown guns.



And yes, you can use your weapons however you wish. You can discard them, repurpose them, whatever. Depending on the venue, you could perhaps even fashion other weapons from local materials.

Pretty sure most goons keep brass knuckles in a pocket. Much Like no commando tries to fire his primary weapon with his K Bar in hand. Knife will be sheathed and so with the knuckles.
