Double-barreled Shotgun

The  (also known colloquially as the "Coach Gun") is a weapon featured in Red Dead Redemption.

Description
It is a type of cartridged scattergun, making use of a break-top action to load two shells into individual barrels, aligned side by side. The double-barreled shotgun is the weakest shotgun. The model featured in the game seems to be a Colt Model 1878, but most side-hammer doubles of the period were similar.

It has the tightest spread of any shotgun in-game, therefore: is extremely useful for subduing targets. If at a far enough distance, a well placed shot to the lower leg can cripple the target without any fatal damage being dealt. During Bounty Hunting, it's possible to shoot a target at range, then move up with the Lasso for an easy Hogtie or finish the target off with ease. But, if shooting a target at point blank range on the leg, it will force him to bleed out and die from his injuries. It is not a good weapon for storming crowded areas, as it gets two shots before having to reload. It does, however, excel at hunting, where the two shells can take down nearly any beast encountered.

However, the shotgun will still be on the ground where the NPC with the shotgun was killed.
