The 76 Eagle is a shotgun in Ravenfield. It was released in Beta 1.

Combat
The 76 Eagle has 6 rounds in a magazine and stores 24 in reserve. The 76 Eagle is short range and has a wide spread, but is deadly up close, killing anyone within about 5 meters. However, if far away, it would take at least 2-4 shots to kill them.

The 76 Eagle should be used heavily in close-quarters combat, where it will destroy any opponent not using this gun. Try to aim and shoot without using the scope. This will greatly increase your fire rate. At medium range, the gun can knock enemy soldiers down, or potentially kill them with an accidental headshot from the spread of bullets. At a longer range, the 76 Eagle becomes useless, dealing little to no damage. Surprisingly, this shotgun has less spread than those in other games, giving it the (theoretical) application as a medium-range chip. although low damage numbers prevent this. Avoid maps like Dustbowl unless you're close up to enemies or if you're confident enough to battle them with it.

When dealing with enemies with the 76 Eagle, as close as possible. At close range, only the RK-44 and a skilled Recon LRR user can match it. Due to the range issue, equip a pistol or a revolver to fight at longer ranges.

Threat
76 Eagle has the least amount of ammo out of all guns (excluding Anti-Tank weaponry). However, the ammunition does not deplete as fast as an RK-44 does due to its long reload time. causing the player to be vulnerable in short-range shoot-outs. It becomes almost unusable at long range, due to the high spread of the shots.

Trivia

 * The 76 Eagle is one of two guns (alongside the M1 Garrett when reloading 1-7 bullets) with ammo changing numbers when reloading. In earlier Beta versions, while reloading, the ammo counter would change to from 6 to 7, and then back to 6. This is despite the fact that it only holds 6 shots.


 * The reload process can be aborted midway (e.g. changing weapon), leaving a partially-full magazine.
 * It is possibly based off Franchi SPAS-12 shotgun with open stock and camouflage.
