As someone else pointed out/questioned below, the scattergun fires 10 pellets, but when fixed weapon spreads are enabled they only land in a 3x3 grid. As I've demonstrated here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hPUD-_GQl18 the central point on the grid fires 2 pellets down the same line (functionally a single double-damage pellet) while the rest fire 1. This should likely be noted on this page, and while not shown in this video, I've tested all the other shotguns and scatterguns that fire 10 pellets, and their fixed spread behaviors are all exactly the same.

== Achievement section ==
  
I've posted a note about this on the FaN talk page as well, since it has a different but also notable fixed spread behavior.

== Clip vs. Magazine ==
 
 
 
Article mistakenly states that the scatter gun has a clip, when in reality it has a tubular magazne. Fixed it.

: While true, this Wiki currently uses the term 'clip' for convenience, as it is less confusing to use the same term everywhere. See the [[Help:Team Fortress Wiki style guide| Style guide]]. --[[User:Firestorm|<font color=#FF6600><u>'''Firestorm'''</u></font>]] 04:01, 4 July 2010 (UTC)
 
 
 
== 9 pellets or 10? ==
 
 
 
No real channel through which I can test this personally, but there are sources in the article saying the Scattergun fires 10 pellets, but this is at odds with the claim that it leaves a perfect 3x3 hole arrangement in the wall when bullet-spread is disabled and is largely identical to the shotgun, implying it fires nine pellets. Which piece of information is correct here? [[User:Gerk|Gerk]] 06:04, 24 November 2010 (UTC)
 
:When bullet-spread is enabled, there will be 10 holes in the wall. [[User:GeneStealer|GeneStealer]] 21:30, 22 July 2012 (PDT)
 
 
 
== Scattergun Bugs ==
 
 
 
It says on the bugs section that there is no location on the model for shells to be replaced. WRONG. On the page for the [[Modest Pile of Hat]], the image shows that on the bottom, there is a hole on it for shells to be replaced. Fixed it.

== For trivia ==
 
 
 
In real life, double barreled shotguns never have another reload mechanism (correct me if i'm wrong), because two barrels  is (technically) semi-automatic firing mechanism.

== Festive Battery Missing ==
 
 
 
Not a real big thing, but in the 3D picture of the RED Festive Scatttergun, the battery on the Scattergun is missing.  When you switch it to the BLU team Scattergun, the battery is there. Kinda odd, don't you think? [[User:DarkovianLord795|DarkovianLord795]] 15:54, 17 December 2012 (PST)

<br />The texture of the scattergun has changed nowadays.And the animation how the scout holds the gun like that is not correct,looks much more like he is holding the force-a-nature or the soda popper.
 
I suggest taking another picture. <small>— ''The preceding unsigned comment was added by'' '''[[User:Ms.Timmy❤|Ms.Timmy❤]]''' ([[User talk:Ms.Timmy❤|talk]]) ([[Special:Contributions/Ms.Timmy❤|contribs]]) 09:01 3 May 2020</small>

Achievement section

Is the related achievements section missing from this article? All other stock weapons I saw have one. Lord of Dominating (talk) 22:05, 29 October 2023 (UTC)

Likely because the only ones applicable would be generic "destroy x" or "kill x" achievements, rather than stuff that needs to be done with this weapon specifically. Feel free to add them, however.
