“

— 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.
