The shotgun only works from close range.

Plus, most of Ravenholm is of the form "you walk down a dark alleyway. 
Suddenly 12 zombies stagger towards you, coming from all directions." 
Plus, it takes time to kill the first one, time to kill the second one, 
more time to kill the third one... gee, the rest are getting quite close 
now...

Yeah, but if you miss, you now have no ammo. Good luck...

Heh. And I thought *I* was strange for having a signed picture in my 
room of Major Carter wearing only a USA flag...

Not that you've memorised every episode or anything like that...

Mildly amusing sometimes, yeah.
