The Reserve Shooter is a secondary weapon for the Soldier and Pyro. It is a pump-action shotgun with a wooden forend and stock, and an olive-shaded metal barrel and receiver. A star within a circle is visible on the weapon.
At the cost of having only three shells per magazine, this weapon increases the speed in which the user switches between weapons by 15%. It is also able to deliver mini-crits to airborne targets for 3 seconds after switching to it. Unlike the Direct Hit, the mini-crits from the Reserve Shooter are awarded even if the enemy was not launched into the air by explosive damage.

Update history
June 23, 2011 Patch (Über Update)
- The Reserve Shooter was added to the game.
- Fixed a bug where the Reserve Shooter would Mini-Crit against swimming targets.
- Added/Refined recoil/draw/crit/reload forces for all of the new weapons in the Über Update.
October 13, 2011 Patch (Manniversary Update & Sale)
- [Undocumented] The Reserve Shooter can now be equipped by the Pyro.
Bugs
- When Soldier taunts with this weapon, the Shotgun sounds are used.
- When being pumped, the forend clips through the metal ring that is attached to the barrels.
- While reloading, it is possible to force the reload animation to loop endlessly by holding both the primary and alt-fire buttons after reloading at least one shell. This can be similarly performed with the Frontier Justice, Family Business and Shotgun.
- The World model for the Pyro's Reserve Shooter has the shell and slide sticking out below the shell loading port.
- If a Pyro airblasts an enemies downward, they will take mini-crit damage from the Reserve Shooter as if they were in the air until they jump.
- When looking at the Reserve Shooter from the Pyro loadout, it will still count it in the Airborne Armaments item set.
Trivia
- A Reserve Shooter is someone who provides backup for the front lines should any error occur.
- According to concept art, the Reserve Shooter was originally designed for the Engineer, as the concept art shows an Engineer's gloved hand holding it.
