The Scattergun is the default primary weapon for the Scout class. It is a short, double-barreled lever-action Shotgun.
Delivering ten pellets per shot with increased ramp-up, this weapon is deadly at close range, requiring only two shots to take down most classes. A wide cone of fire causes it become mediocre at medium range and near useless at a distance. This forces players to move close to enemies to effectively deal damage while utilising the class's distinct speed to avoid retaliation.
The base damage per pellet and number of pellets fired per shot is equal to that of the Shotgun, but with ramp-up it usually deals slightly more damage. It also has slightly slower reload and firing times.
The Scattergun's first shell fires at least one pellet straight down the crosshair before 'bullet-spread' takes effect. When random spread is disabled the pellets land forming a three by three grid pattern.

Demonstration
Trivia
- The Scattergun is never actually reloaded: when the 6 round clip is empty, the handle lever is used to eject the rounds without loading fresh ones in. There is also no location on the model for shells to be replaced.
- Sound effects exist in the game files labeled "double shot". It is possible that the weapon may have had, or was going to have, a double-barreled firing mode, possibly similar to the super Shotgun from Team Fortress Classic. These sound effects were recycled for the Force-A-Nature.
