Reload one shell at a time and let a shot interrupt it

A shotgun that loads shells one by one should let you fire when you need to, but the usual version either locks you out until the end, loses a shell you were halfway through inserting, or makes you wait through the intro again. Here is the timing that feels fair.

Why this works

Loading one piece at a time is a series of small finished jobs, so each piece should count the moment it is done. Then stopping to shoot costs only the piece in your hand, never the ones already in, and a panicked player is never left with nothing.

When not to use it

Don't use it for weapons that load all at once, like a magazine or a battery pack, where an interrupted reload should lose the whole attempt. Also not when you want reloading to be a risky commitment the player must plan for.
