With the variety of DB's though, really very little changes and you can carry around 4 easily. Given you have the rank or NX, it's not too hard but yea it's pretty lackluster for a gun. It's the problem with "effective range" being so limited. You can still hit at a long range, but the damage is so drastically reduced.

M590 CQB is pretty high up in ranks, but still even for that gun it's usually 2-3 hits. Unless you manage a headshot, get pretty close to someone or they were already wounded. Effective range was basically nullified, and made to the point only SG-Only matches will some dominate others. M590 CQB and DB are pretty powerful in that mode only, due to people were all upset over the huge power the M590 Military used to be. We know how that went over.. sure the AA-12 was a nice addition to compete with the M4Super, but even then competing in your own class vs other classes isn't exactly balanced.

I run around usually packing my Double Barrel Punisher and Confederate DB, along with sometimes an M590 CQB for SG-Only. People make all-permitted matches so unfair. So much as blast someone in the back, they tank most of the damage and come back to headshot you. Where's the balance Nexon?! x.x
