Lukas Question (Mild Expedition spoiler)

Did anyone succeed to persuade Lukas to give you a shotgun?

All the time.  With 10 Will you can do it at level 1; the check is 20.

If you don't have a high Will, then you can go do the Retake the Outposts quest, level up, and *then* talk to Lucas about getting your gun back, if you really want the shotgun.  But beware - it's not a very good shotgun =)

Where you can find a good one? Or a blueprint, at least.

It's gonna take you a minute, it will.  Even if you had a blueprint fall at your feet first thing, you wouldn't be able to afford a frame and barrel.  Honestly, you should assume that your shotgun build will rely on pistol/SMG/AR for the first few levels.  Pretty quickly, you'll get a quest to take you to a place called Junkyard, and I do believe that if Lukas hasn't stocked a blueprint for you by then, you can find one there.

My honest recommendation for any Guns build is to - as quickly as you feel comfortable, so maybe level 3-6 - get into the Underpassages and head East one screen.  Pick the easy lock that doesn't have rathounds behind it, and there's a guy just holding an AR, waiting to give it to you.

You're gonna have to shoot him in the face first, but then he'll just give it to you for free.
