I agree that's incredibly frustrating. That's why I only use the shotgun inside tight spaces. As soon as I have more than 15 feet of space, I switch back to primary. If I forget to switch back or don't do it fast enough and run into that situation I'll chuck a grenade and hope for the best because I know the shotgun isn't going to cut it. Even if you miss with the grenade, if you're close enough that he has to move out of the way, it'll at least buy you some time to go hide and switch back to primary.

I just use the first shotgun whatever you call it. It works decent for me. Just don't miss with the first shot because it takes a while to rack it for the second shot. I get a lot of kills with it in scrapyard, when I'm in those plane shells or whatever they are.
