The Force-A-Nature, also known as the FaN, is the unlockable primary weapon for the Scout class, replacing the Scattergun and is unlocked after obtaining 11 of the Scout achievements. It is a double-barreled hunting Shotgun with extremely short barrels, which were cut down to increase spread. It sacrifices the reload speed and capacity of the Scattergun for maximum blasting power.
Any opponent hit by a shot from the Force-A-Nature in close range will fly backwards a considerable distance. The sheer power of the recoil also causes the Scout to fly backwards for an effective 'third-jump' on top of his regular double jump ability.
The Force-A-Nature, at first, appears to deal less damage than the Scattergun, but in fact it deals more damage (0.9x damage per pellet times 1.2x amount of pellets is 1.08 times normal damage) spread over more pellets, to maximize the weapon's Knockback feature. When firing upwards, the Force-A-Nature will negate the jump and cause you to fall back down.
The Force-A-Nature's firing rate is also considerably faster than the Scattergun, unloading both shells in approximately half a second. Like the standard Shotgun and the Scattergun, the Force-A-Nature's first shell will fire at least one pellet straight down the crosshair before 'bullet-spread' takes effect.

Trivia
- The Force-A-Nature is manufactured in Portugal (a doubtful fact considering that its "warranty" is actually written in Spanish, a common mistake for people unfamiliar with Portuguese language) and marketed towards the particularly sadistic outdoorsman.
- Double jumping and then firing both shots may cause the Scout to yell one of four responses.
- A second shot fired in mid-air has no knockback on the Scout, until he touches ground again.
- Reloading always ejects two shells, even after firing a single round.
- Unused Scattergun sounds, which are labeled "double shot", have the sound effects of the Force-A-Nature. It is possible that early Scattergun designs involved an alternate double-shot fire.
- Even though there is a shoulder stock on the FaN, in the outside view the Scout does not use it, seeming to hold the stock in his elbow. This has resulted in clipping issues where the stock of the weapon will pass through the Scout as he runs.
- A server console command can be used to disable random bullet spread for the Force-A-Nature, along with other pellet weapons like the Shotgun. When activated, any shots with the Force-A-Nature will form a 3x3 square, with the extra two pellets going to the centre and rightmost position.
- The kill icon for the Force-A-Nature was originally the same as the Scattergun. This was changed to its current kill icon in the July 8, 2010 patch.
- The Force-A-Nature's name is a reference to what the Scout calls himself in Meet the Scout.
