The ammo generator is pretty much useless except to sell. Unlike your
starting buckshot, you *can* sell it, and it will fetch a nice price. It
is worth keeping the starting buckshot and shotgun in order to have
extra firepower against early quests or other difficulties, even if you
aren't trying to make a gunman out your Engineer (and guns aren't an
obvious choice for Engineers).
Sell the ammo generator and buy yourself something nice (like a good
melee weapon if that's the way you want to go, or a bunch of rayguns).
As for buckshot, don't expect the dungeon to cough up any soon. It is
only available in Town in the Black Market, but can be worth the
purchase. When you're out of SP and still need to kill, buckshot is
pretty handy.
