Huntsman Silverback

The Huntsman Silverback is a weapon in Deus Ex: Human Revolution.

Background
The Huntsman Silverback is a double-barrel shotgun with break-action loading. The weapon will fire one barrel at a time, or both if the player activates its burst-fire mode. Note that the gun includes the burst fire mode without requiring an upgrade.

Upgrades
The Huntsman Silverback supports increased damage and reload speed upgrades, but all other upgrades are incompatible.

Locations

 * This weapon is available straight away in the Tactical Enhancement Pack that comes with a pre-ordered version of Deus Ex: Human Revolution and is purchasable from merchants later.
 * In the first house on the right when you pass the gate at Belltower Port.
 * In Singapore at the very rear left side. Inside a half-closed storage room.

Tactics

 * An extremely powerful shotgun that can eliminate many enemy targets, but is ineffective against armor. Its burst fire capability allows the player to take enemies down even in medium range due to the increase in firepower. However, it's magazine size (only two) leaves a lot to be desired, as the player will need to reload every one or two shots, making it undesirable for a primary or assault weapon. However, with blind-fire, the weapon is most effective in point-blank shots against charging enemies.
