KS-23 is a powerful shotgun in CrossFire.
Overview
KS-23 is a pump-action shotgun, but use a rifled barrel, meaning it's also officially designated as a carbine.
This weapon has a good firing rate, but it carries the third least shells in its tubular magazine (Above 687 EELL Diamond Pigeon and Serbu Super-Shorty), with only 4 shots (20 in reverse), even though it can reload quite fast and reload-cancel is also possible.
