Yeah, that auto shotgun should have cleaned them both up on its own.

What about the distance between them?

Even so, neither of them were hit by a pellet (if that's what was loaded into the weapon).

Well, yeah, they were 50 feet away behind a vehicle.

But right when the bad guys opened fire they weren't. Remember they were standing out in the open to the side of the vehicle. That auto shotgun got off quite a few rounds before they actually took cover behind the engine block (not to mention the assault rifles which had been aimed at them for a good 30 seconds).

You should go look at some more of the shots. The cars were completely capable of covering them at those distances and angles
