Ghost Recon Wildlands – The best weapons – Shotguns – SASG-12
The Saiga-12 (SASG-12) is a tactical semi-automatic shotgun from Russia. Essentially, it is a Kalashnikov assault rifle that fires 12-gauge shotgun shells – fully automatic! There is hardly a better weapon to clear rooms full of enemies.
In Ghost Recon Wildlands, the SASG-12 is an extremely dangerous weapon that inflicts tremendous damage at close range. This is due to its fully automatic fire function and a magazine that can be expanded to thirty rounds! You should definitely get this quickly, as the standard 5-round magazine doesn’t last long.
What makes the SASG-12 particularly cool is its silencer. Yes, you read that right; you can use this monster shotgun as a stealth weapon! It will cause less damage, but it should still be enough to take down unsuspecting Sicarios in droves.
Location – Where to find the SASG-12?
The SASG-12 can be found in the region P.N. De Agua Verde. It is located in a cartel outpost in the northeastern corner of the province. The area is not heavily fortified, so you should be able to pick up the weapon easily. The YouTuber StreamerHouse has already found the shotgun and shows you the location and attributes of the weapon in the embedded video.
