90% of the time you use a MAX it's indoors anyway where shotguns are at their best and none are better than the NC MAX at that. But if you want some range load up a pair of Falcons if you can aim or a pair of Ravens if you can't.

Most NC MAX users have one shotgun normal and one with slugs to give some better ranged punch without taking too much away from what NC MAXs are good for, namely CQC inster-death. Though I find the Mattocks work fine at range (15-25 meters) without any slugs.

As for reload times, a NC MAX gun can down an enemy in 2-3 shots, make your shots count and a lot of the time (not always, but more offen than not) it wont matter how long it takes beause between you and the squad you stormed in with all the enemys will already be dead. And even if not just ether hit the Charge option and run to the nearest spot with cover or use the NC MAX Shield and 'be' the cover. Fun fact, if you start a reload before putting up the MAX shield, activating said shield wont stop the reload from finishing.

I've been playing as NC for almost two years, NC MAXs work fine as they are, high skill = high kill, low skill = walking bullet magnet staying in the open raging about how their shotguns can't kill anything at range (no d'uh). I'm a slow moving, CQC, inster-death, monster. Unless I'm using 2x falcons in witch case add about 15-20 meters to that one twin-shot - one kill range.
