Yes!

Shotguns as a weapon vs hunting are IME not often planned for an 'in-combat' reload.

Plans would be:

1- all tangos are dead, reload at leisure.

2- 'drop' (to end of patrol sling) and fast draw pistol/backup weapon of choice.

3- duck behind hard cover (i.e. out of combat) reload quickly while your friends earn their princely salaries.

4- throw a grenade first, then use shotgun.

5- call in an airstrike, if necessary repeat.

6- reconsider career plans.
