I think it being a cargo exclusive thing is a pretty good idea but 250 for a whole box seems really cheap now that we have paychecks again.
Also ducks is right, shotguns are just way cooler aesthetically than laser guns.

voidshots being cargo only is good because that way i can force sec to do paperwork as qm
► Show Spoiler
I used the shotgun. You know why? Cause the shot gun doesn't miss, and unlike the shitty hybrid taser it stops a criminal in their tracks in two hits. Bang, bang, and they're fucking done. I use four shots just to make damn sure. Because, once again, I'm not there to coddle a buncha criminal scum sucking morons, I'm there to 1) Survive the fucking round. 2) Guard the armory. So you can absolutely get fucked. If I get unbanned, which I won't, you can guarantee I will continue to use the shotgun to apprehend criminals. Because it's quick, clean and effective as fuck. Why in the seven hells would I fuck around with the disabler shots, which take half a clip just to bring someone down, or with the tazer bolts which are slow as balls, impossible to aim and do about next to jack shit, fuck all. The shotgun is the superior law enforcement weapon. Because it stops crime. And it stops crime by reducing the number of criminals roaming the fucking halls.

I like versatility
Good PR. More versatility is good.
Will probably get replaced by energy piercing bolts in the future for nanotransen energy ballistic syndicate synergy (make them look like drills whichever coder does this)

I foresee that even though this is massively nerfed compared to old buckshot, it'll still get blocked.

This is a good PR. It's very rarely a bad thing to give people choices in how they handle matters.

Friendship ended with buckshot
New friend is voidshot
Imagine getting chased with voidshot, and just before getting shot you drag a locker and the guy fucks himself up

Imagine an admin only void shot that'd shoot out void anomalies
Or just disintegrate limbs if it hits.
