The shotgun is a very messy thing, and is liable to hit a hostage as well as the hostage taker when fired, instead the SAS use it as a door breacher, they use special door breaching cartridges (very powerful when concentrated on a small area such as a hinge or door lock) to blow open a door so the team can move in.
