The Reserve Shooter is a secondary weapon for the Soldier. It is a pump-action shotgun with a wooden forend and stock, and an olive-shaded metal barrel and receiver.
At the cost of having only three shells per magazine, this weapon increases the speed in which the Soldier 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.
