	It is armed with blades near the muzzle and stock and are a throwback to earlier Kroot Fighting Staves, allowing them to use their speed to tear close in on their opponents in close combat. It is still quite bulky however, and so is not ever combined with another weapon, although it doesn't often need to be.

	In 8th Edition, these guns are 48" Rapid Fire 1 weapons that are S7 Ap-1 D3d. Good enough to pluck off the occasional MEQs, but not good enough to deal with armoured vehicles of TEQs unlike the [[Autocannon]]. Rather, the gun is used in conjunction with the Krootox's natural strength, softening up the opposition before going in close. As such, use this more like a secondary weapon than a primary one.

	The ~~Dvorgite Skinner~~ is one of the primary weapons used by the [[Kroot ~~Heavy Gunner~~]], ~~with the other being the [[Londaxi Tribalest]]~~.

The Kroot Scattergun is one of the primary weapons used by the [[Kroot_Kindreds\|Kroot Carnivore Squads]], which they can swap over their usual Kroot Rifles.

There is a reason for its [[/d/\|girthy appearance.]] True to its name, the Scattergun is a type of heavy-duty Kroot [[Shotgun]] that, whilst it is unknown how they compare with their Imperial equivalents, does gift the Kroot an additional arsenal in their close-combat rapporteur. Funnily enough, only the Carnivore Kroots hailing from the [[Farstalker Kinband]]s are seen carrying it. Whether this means that the construction of these weapons is more expensive is unknown, although highly unlikely as a shotgun is one of the simplest firearm one can create.

	~~Compared to~~ the ~~Londaxi Tribalest~~, the ~~Dvorgite Skinner has~~ a short ~~range~~, ~~but high accuracy~~ and ~~attacks~~, ~~as well as~~ the ~~fact that~~ it ~~can spread~~ to ~~other enemies nearby~~ to the ~~initial target~~.		Crunchwise, on the tabletop, the Scattergun is a short 18" ranged Assault 2 weapon that is S4, AP0 and D 1. Nothing that spectacular given that it is a typical shogtun, but it does allow the Kroot holding it to shoot and skoot which plays naturally to the Kroot's playstyle.

Unfortunately, there is used to be not any actual crunch for this weapon on the tabletop as it appears only in the trading card game and in a few models. However, with the release of Kill-Team: Into the Darkness, the new [[Long-Sight]] was released with the rules. That is, on tabletop, this hunting rifle has a low damage output but can dish out three mortal wounds on each crit making it a formidable weapon.
