P.S. The Hay-k 47 is still in development but we hope to release it soon!

๐ฝ๐ฝ New Weapon: The Double Cob ๐ฝ๐ฝ
We canโt call this game โShotgun Farmersโ without having a double barrel shotgun! Say hello to The Double Cob:

Youโll only find the Double Cob in some Crop Drops during the match. Look out for that ๐๐!
