The Shot Defender is a 12 gauge shotgun in Syphon Filter: Omega Strain which uses shot ammunition.
"This shotgun is designed for a personal defense role and fires 12 gauge shot through a narrow choke. The narrow choke prevents the shot from spreading out too far so most of the shot will hit a victim out to the weapon's effective range. The advantage to this is instant incapacitation due to the powerful force transferred from a close group of projectiles. The victim is usually thrown back quite a distance, which is very intimidating to any other enemies in the area."
