The combat shotgun, in the form of the Arbites Shotgun, is extensively used by the [[Adeptus Arbites]] for both combat and crowd control, and various types of rounds have been developed for such tasks. The Arbites Shotgun fires frag shells, solid slugs, gas rounds and guided ''executioner'' rounds.
[[Space Marines]] [[Scouts]] also sometimes employ shotguns. Though their shotguns seem to be more powerful than those of other Imperial organizations,they still lack some of the range, power and armor piercing qualities of bolters. However, they are, in some cases, more useful than bolters because they can be fired easily while advancing and charging into close combat.
