    So, it goes without saying that the Moddel is considered to be one of the most O.P guns on the server, and considered one of the most "n00b13st". Honestly, yes I can see where it's O.P, but the threads normally go a little something like...

    "OMG I juzt lost 2 modle, it op, nerf it d0 1 h3rt in t0tes, so 0p i kwit b/c th3y sai nurf ray, ray pro gawn!!!, #nerfmodlhuehehueuheuhuehuegg".

    Which isn't gonna get anyway, so, I propose the following be added:
    -Increase reload time by one more second, you're cramming shells into a tiny little hole, there's no way it can reload in ~2 seconds.

    -Cut the range, I tested it on WMD with that long as hell side corridor, it's got a range of ~30-40 blocks, chop that down to ~10-20. It's a shotgun, the spas-24 is meant for range, due to it's low damage, this thing isn't a sniper.

    And that's all, not terrible, I mean it keeps the same damage, i'm fine with that, it's a strong shotgun, the range is just a little too far.

    I know that there's a lot of threads already like this, however as stated before, they're either saying nerf the thing so it becomes the new USP-45, or it's saying give it like... one block less range.
    Also, change the damn spelling of it, it's Model, it's like one file in the config I assume, and a few signs in spawn.

    Look, nearly no one uses shotguns, cause the most of them are bad (M1014, Spas-24) or cause they waste too much ammo (AA12, Typhoid).
    Actually the moddel is the ONLY shotgun that is fun and worth to be used. Moddel is OP, but it also requires skills to use, so I would say, leave it like it is.

    Personally I think that this is a good idea, and could calm some of the rage. But in the other hand, like roke said, it's the only shotgun worth using; and I someone is raging at you for using it then ignore them. What are they going to do? Report you to putty?

    Model ( notice this perfect spelling ) is like the only good shotgun, not a lot of people us it and it's op for this reason. Nerfing it would be strange because it is the only good one.

    Or the other shotguns could receive a nice buff to make them decently usable. You should be able to at least get a few kills with the M1014, especially since it's a balanced and effective shotgun in CoD and Battlefield.
    Just to let you know, only two bullets are needed to kill with the Model minimum, and it shoots 7. So a damage nerf may be needed too, or a decrease in pellets shot.

    Well honestly even if it has a range of 30-40 blocks (never taken notice of how far the shots travel) the shots would be so spread out that you would be lucky to get half a heart of damage done to the enemy so a range nerf would sort of be a bit pointless in my opinion. I think the reload of model is fine, it is a close range rushing weapon, short reloads tend to go well with rushing.

    Model doesn't deserve to be nerfed. The only non-donor weapon there is would be Skullcrusher and the 3 donor weapons as well.

    THe moddel is not that op if you think about it. Even an l118a can be stronger. Once, when i used the moddel I went 56-9. I did get lots of kills, but I only died to snipers. It is completly fair

    It is ok but I prefer the spas 12, it seems to me like a real shotgun should be.

    If we nerf the model we might as well just get rid of all the shotguns.
    It is the only shotgun that gets used on a daily basis, nerfing it would cause an uproar.

    I fully agree with this. Yes, the Model does need a small nerf, but the more expensive shotguns should also get a small buff (like it should be). This would make shotguns much more balanced, and used more often.

    I think the range is a little insane. Sometimes I am around 29 blocks back from someone and they still kill me. Other then that it is fine and it's fun to use.
