Fortnite Reload Still Has the Combat Shotgun Despite v42.00 Vaulting Notes
A gameplay screenshot shows the weapon as an Uncommon pickup with the player's backpack already full.
Fortnite Reload is still spawning the Combat Shotgun, even though Epic’s Fortnite Reload v42.00 Update Notes say the weapon should be vaulted along with other items. That is a pretty awkward loot-pool mismatch.
The weapon appears as an Uncommon Combat Shotgun, complete with a pickup prompt warning that the backpack is full. So, at least in the match shown, the supposedly vaulted shotgun was still sitting there waiting to be picked up.
Vaulted weapons still in Reload :/

The available information does not explain whether the weapon remained in the mode by mistake or whether the vaulting note did not apply correctly. Either way, players can apparently still encounter it despite the change described in the v42.00 notes.
