[Halo 2] During the changing of the guard why do the Brutes have caches of human shotguns?

The Brutes appreciated the simple effectiveness of the shotgun, and it reminded them of the Maulers.  Though Tartarus was a fanatic and inspired many other fanatics, the Brutes were also not as honorbound as the Elites, and so they weren't above using human weapons in a pinch.  They still didn't like them as much but hey, gotta do what you gotta do.
