Trivia[]
- The Backbreaker is modeled after the American Standard Manufacturing DP-12. However it only has a single barrel and no moving pump, unlike the real life shotgun. Which is double barreled and has a visible pump action.
- The Legacy Heavy Shotgun in Battle Royale shares the same image and model with the Backbreaker.
