You shoot about 30 shots in just 10 seconds, and as I said you can easily walk around the KSG so it wíll do damage. Plus, the damage is low so it won'd be overpowered. It has to be this high, it's a freaking riot shield, worth 75000. The price/ quality has to be balanced, and with 25 % blocking rate it is nót balanced.

First and foremost, congratulations for dragging out a thread that didn't need to be dragged out. Since you decided to do that, I'm going to tell you why you're wrong; the thread was already dragged out, so I might as well. Okay, so from your post, I gathered that you're telling me this in two different ways that are incorrect:
1. It isn't a riot shield you're paying the 75,000 for, its the gun AND the riot shield. You should be thankful you were even given a riot shield, it's the only gun in the game with that effect. Now, again, this having been said, the KSG alone should not perform like a 75k gun, because it isn't even a 75k gun to begin with. The riot shield itself is probably a little under half of its actual price, making it about, say, 30k. The KSG is really probably only about a 45k gun. So don't complain that the price/performance ratio is off for the gun itself.
2. Also, you're implying that out of the 30 shots (also incorrect) that are fired in said gunfight hit. That is incorrect - out of the
20~ shots that are fired in 10 seconds, probably only about 4 or 5 of them hit. Under this pretense, given your 80% block rate, one bullet out of every five will hit and inflict damage. In ten seconds, the enemy will hit one bullet. Seeing as everyone uses a 9 damage M4, it can take up to a whole MINUTE for a gunfight to end against a KSG user. Do you know how long a minute is? Take your favorite song and divide it by three, maybe four. There you have it, a minute long gunfight against the KSG. In that minute that the enemy that has hit 6 bullets in a minute, you've probably hit at least 10 in 30 seconds. That would be ridiculously long and tedious for both users, and isn't going to work out.
Please stop dragging out a thread like this, because everything that needed to be said has been said in 10+ other pages. There really isn't any more arguing to be needed, Snake already said the KSG will stay the way it is - and if it reverts to its original state, a vote would have to be in place. If it doesn't pass, it doesn't pass. If it does, the people that wanted the KSG nerfed will start up again, on here and on iEra, and it will be reverted back to this state that it currently is at.
