Stating a functional shotgun inside a bionic leg

I'm using Payload as part of the advantage, so I'm imagining it hidden inside the leg.

The issue is the ability to fire it without first pulling it out of the payload.

I would allow it if you have both Payload and Weapon Mount. The utility of firing directly from Payload is countered by not being able to use the Weapon Mount if you have anything other than a weapon in the Payload. It's a neat way to model internal stores for UCAVs.

What you said is how I'm imagining it. Also, if the player wants to use the Payload to carry other items, he can't use a weapon.
So, being able to shoot while the weapon is concealed, is just a 0-point feature in my opinion.

In real life there is a private detective named J. J. Arms who lost both hands in an accident as a child. He has/had a single shot 22 in one. He according to his bio has had to use it once.
