This is a nice weapon idea

I like it, but im not sure if it should be a shotgun, or a flaregun-like weapon.

A part of me thinks it should be like the L4D2 SPAS with incendiary rounds, but how that could be balanced is the tricky part

Faster fire rate, 5 second afterburn, faster reloading. -33% damage, -50% afterburn damage
