Reserve Shooter
“ | Military scientists were at first dumbfounded by the request made by soldiers of the airbourne(sic) divisions to make a gun with with the same firepower in a smaller package. It's usually their job to put vastly more firepower in a package that's the same size or much bigger. Grudgingly the work was completed, and this was the result, a compact shotgun.

The Reserve Shooter is a community-created 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 white U.S. army insignia is also visible on the weapon.
At the cost of having only four shells per magazine, this weapon increases the speed it can be deployed by 20%, and the speed it can be holstered by 15%. Like the Direct Hit, the mini-crits from the Reserve Shooter are only awarded if the target is launched into the air by explosion, Compression blast, or Grappling Hook. Taunting as Pyro with the Reserve Shooter equipped will perform the Hadouken kill taunt.
