The weapon blueprint appears to be a Hauer 77, a powerful pump shotgun capable of one-shotting enemies. Because it is a weapon blueprint, the Hauer 77 comes with an extended magazine, and alternate stock and grips. While players can unlock the Hauer 77 by reachingmilitary rankseven, the additional attachments will give players an edge when first starting the game.

The shotgun has a unique black and green camo, complete with a bright green pump grip and also features the MACV-SOG logo on the stock. The charm has yet to be revealed, however Activision has indicated that players will receive the charm around their birthday.
