"An Italian Semi-Automatic Shotgun, delivered to USMC in 1999, the M1014 fires 12 gauge rounds without the need for the pump action seen on the M870. A reliable and versatile weapon, the M1014 is also equipped with a rail for the mounting of various accessories and an open choke that results in wide pellet spread"

— Battlelog description

The M1014 is an all kit shotgun featured in Battlefield 3.

Singleplayer[]

In the Singleplayer campaign, it is commonly used by PLR cell operatives in missions, Comrades and The Great Destroyer. It is also found with an Extended Magazine in the subway in Semper Fidelis / The Great Destroyer, blocking a door from opening which the player must remove. However, it will not be kept for long, because after a later Quick Time Event, the weapon will be lost. Another M1014 can be found in the bank basement in Operation Guillotine, laying near the dead bank worker, next to the elevator.

Multiplayer[]

In Multiplayer, the M1014 is unlocked at level 22. It has a higher fire rate compared to the 870MCS due to the semi-automatic nature of the gun, but has higher recoil and a shorter range. Similar to the 870MCS, M1014 was equipped with a 5-round tube or a 7-round one with Extended Magazine. Its reload time varies depending on how many rounds have already been spent, and like the 870MCS, the M1014 can fall into an infinite reload bug. Due to the smaller magazine size compared to other semi-automatic shotguns, the June 4th update increased the number of projectiles in a shell to 10 compared to 9. The weapon can fire while reloading as long as one or more shells is loaded. The appearance of the weapon is altered by the use of extended magazines.
