Widowmaker TX



The Widowmaker TX is a weapon in Deus Ex: Human Revolution.

Background
The Widowmaker TX is a 12-gauge semi-automatic tactical shotgun made by the Military Arms of Ostrava (MAO) located in Czech Republic.

Characteristics
Very effective in short range, this modern shotgun can use special "Halfback" anti-mech ammunition and it uses a unique rotary magazine system. This magazine can hold 16 rounds (only through the use of weapons mods). The Widowmaker has three Picatinny rails that can accommodate such a red dot sight.

Upgrades
The Widowmaker TX can accept a burst-fire mod, so that it shoots 2 shells every time the trigger is pulled. This is the only weapon that can use the mod.
