| − | These [[Enhanced Prosthetic]] limbs were ones which concealed a weapon within the agent's arms, in this case a '''Shotgun''' scaled down from normal-sized shotguns to fit within the arm or hand and hidden behind concealed panels. Spotting this concealed weapon was very difficult so long as it was inactive, although inserting the ammunition clip made it more noticeable. Ironically, the mechanical nature of Type 3 and Type 4 limbs made it slightly easier to mask the existence of any weapon ports. In addition the limited space within the human arm prevented any weapon accessories from being added beyond the use of a [[Laser Sight]].<ref name=AGCO>''A Guide to Covert Ops'', p. 110</ref>

| − | As with other prosthetic enhancements, these were employed only by the intelligence agencies of the [[Inner Sphere]] with agents who already had a Type 3 or superior prosthetic limb. The [[Clans]] were too philosophically opposed and the [[Periphery]] too poor to make use of them beyond rare cases.<ref>''A Guide to Covert Ops'', p. 109</ref> Among the [[Manei Domini]], this upgrade was available to all agents with the necessary prosthetic limb.<ref name=JHS>''Jihad Hot Spots: 3072'', p. 124-125, 130</ref>

| − | In [[CBT]] play, each conventional [[infantry]]man equipped with a Shotgun enhanced limb adds .01 to a platoon's damage value, however it can only applied to other conventional infantry engaged within the platoon's hex and the sum of all prosthetic weapons must be rounded normally before being applied. In RPG play, this limb has the following statistics in addition to all rules associated with enhanced limbs.<ref name=JHS/>
