It makes a difference in case you roll a "1" or "2" early on and possibly run out of ammo.

The roll to see if you run out of ammo is a separate roll to the rolls to hit. Here is the official answer from Flying Frog's wiki:

Quote:Q17: Pump Shotgun and Revolver – Is running out of ammo different for these two guns?

A17: Yes. With a Revolver, it is a single roll to hit. If that roll is a 1, the gun not only misses but is also out of ammo (discarded). The Pump Shotgun works a little bit differently. You choose a target space and roll separately to hit each Zombie in that space. Once you have finished rolling to hit the Zombies, then you make a single additional roll to see if the gun runs out of ammo on the roll of 1 or 2. This extra ‘ammo roll’ is to prevent the Pump Shotgun from running out of ammo too quickly.

Hope that clears any confusion.

If you get 1 or 2 on the ammo roll do you still get the zeds killed and discard the shotgun card. OR is it so that you would have killed the zeds if you had ammo?
