The Back Scatter is a community-created primary weapon for the Scout. It is a short, slightly-modified lever-action shotgun with a wooden handle, a single barrel, and a dual small shell drum.

It has the ability to deal mini-crit damage at close range and at the back of enemies, making it excel at ambushing tactics. However, it has a 34% smaller clip (leaving 4 shots before needing to reload), the pellets have 20% more spread, and it is unable to deal random critical hits.

The Back Scatter was contributed to the Steam Workshop under the name "The 3lb Trigger".
