Functionality
The Double Barrel Shotgun is a weapon with very low range and a very small magazine. The purpose of the Double Barrel Shotgun is to deal high amounts of damage in very close situations, even closer than that of the Pump Shotgun. Landing all pellets from both its shots can knock a player from full health and shields with both of the gun's rarities.

Stats
Double Barrel Shotguns range from dealing 114-120 damage per shot (217 - 228 Damage Per Second). All Double Barrel Shotguns use. The Double Barrel Shotgun has a headshot multiplier of 1.25x.

Unlike other Shotguns, the Double Barrel reloads both shells at once, instead of one at a time. The Double Barrel Shotgun is a hitscan weapon, but fires a spread of 10 pellets when both aiming down sights and hipfiring. Aiming down sights tightens the spread of pellets.
