Double-barreled Shotgun



The Double-barreled Shotgun was a type of cartridged scattergun, making use of a break-top action to load two shells into individual barrels, aligned side by side. This weapon can be found in Red Dead Redemption.

The weapon was usually available in 12 gauge, but could also be found in .410, 16, 10 and 8. Additionally, the type of shot loaded made the side by side shotgun very versatile. This weapon is also known colloquially as the "Double Barrel Shotgun" or "Coach Gun". It was generally not very accurate at distance but proved very powerful against close range targets, and adept at striking moving targets. The shells were often made of brass during this time.
