The Argus Shotgun that made its debut in COD: Black Ops III and then was featured in Black Ops 4 is finally making its way to COD: Mobile Shotguns roster with the Season 8 'Error 404' update.

For players who don't know, the Argus is a lever action shotgun using which you can get one-shot kills in close quarters, making it the perfect weapon for maps with tight corners.

So, if you are looking to get your hands on the latest shotgun in the game, keep reading our guide as we explain how you can get and use the Argus shotgun in COD: Mobile.
