In my opinion, "lentokonehalli" sounds a little bit better than "hangaari"  . "UFO-halli" though does sound strange but luckily we don't need that term anymore because UFO Hangars are replaced by UFO yards (am I correct in this one?).

At least from the way the shotgun looks like, here is a couple of shotguns that look similiar and likely would sound similiar: Saiga line, USAS-12, SPAS-15. Though I don't know if they have clips in the net and it's possible that the magazine doesn't affect the sound in any way, in which case any semi-auto-shotgun (Benelli perhaps) would do the trick.
Did I understand correctly what you needed?
Edit: For the Micro-shotgun, I'd guess any short-barreled shotgun or sawn-off shotgun is good enough.

Tactics / Re: Suggestions for Balancing of 2.3 Weapons

Agreed for the plasma weapons, they are ineffective when compared to other guns.
@odie: Burst mode basically means that you keep the trigger pressed the whole time while the gun shoots the burst. And sniper-rifles don't have that. Please correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't the sniper rifle already permit multi-round shooting? As in repeatedly firing?

Design / Re: Plasma powered flamethrower?

Doesn't plasma also have an extremely high velocity? If the mass is sufficient, then it should be able to punch a hole through armor.

Most likely a cloud of plasma hitting a hard object would simply deflect and disperse unless it's flying at impossibly high velocity. And even then a solid object would do it much better.
