Compared to the [[Single-Barrel Shotgun (Classic)|Single-Barrel Shotgun]], the Double-Barrel Shotgun fires 8 more pellets, allowing it to do considerably more damage at close range. It fires and reloads slower, meaning it is slightly less effective in a sustained firefight. Due to the lack of damage falloff in ''Team Fortress Classic'', it still makes for an effective weapon at longer ranges.
* The Double-Barrel Shotgun deals 4 points of damage over 14 pellets; 56 damage if all pellets connect, which makes this weapon able to kill a Scout in two shots.
 
* The absence of fall-off damage in ''[[Team Fortress Classic]]'' makes it an ideal primary weapon.
 
* The Half-Life 1 Engine (Gold Source Engine) also limits the spread of the Double-Barrel Shotgun, making it work surprisingly well at long range.
 
* The reloading time is fairly quick as it takes only 3 seconds to completely reload it.

The Double-Barrel Shotgun holds double the [[Ammo (Classic)#Shells|shells]] of the Single-Barrel Shotgun, consumes two shells per shot, and two shells are loaded into the clip at once when reloading.

* While the Double-Barrel Shotgun does not have fall-off damage in ''Team Fortress Classic'', it is preferable to use it in close combat quarters to deal full damage. Unfortunately, this causes the player to expose themselves to danger.

...was turned into Swiss cheese by Soldier's buckshot.
Team Fortress obituaries

The Double-Barrel Shotgun, often referred to as the "Super Shotgun", is a weapon for the Soldier, Medic, Heavy Weapons Guy, Spy, and Engineer.

Compared to the Single-Barrel Shotgun, the Double-Barrel Shotgun fires 8 more pellets, allowing it to do considerably more damage at close range. It fires and reloads slower, meaning it is slightly less effective in a sustained firefight. Due to the lack of damage falloff in Team Fortress Classic, it still makes for an effective weapon at longer ranges.

The Double-Barrel Shotgun holds double the shells of the Single-Barrel Shotgun, consumes two shells per shot, and two shells are loaded into the clip at once when reloading.
