Shotgun (Dead Rising 2) Type Firearm Uses 20 Shells (DR2) / 40 Shells (With Dead Rising 2 Skill Packs) / 15 Shells (Case West) Strength Close = Great Medium = Good Long = Okay Attack Speed Medium Found Bob's Fish 'n Hunt High-Noon Shooting Range Dead Rising 2 Weapon

The shotgun is a weapon in Dead Rising 2: Case Zero, Dead Rising 2 and Dead Rising 2: Case West which fires a conical spray of lead pellets, making it lethal at close-quarters, but weak at long range. It can be combined with a Pitchfork to create a Boomstick.

At medium range (7 standing zombies or less) it will often result in a 1-hit KO regardless of where you aim. It is speculated that each shotgun pellet is equal to the damage of a single handgun round. At close range it will result in incapacitation of the zombie aimed at.

Be careful however when giving shotguns to fellow survivors as the shotgun's friendly fire can do a lot of damage to Chuck.

LocationEdit

• High-Noon Shooting Range has four of them.
• There's one atop the kiosk across from Under the Sea Travels.
• There's one in the Yucatan, behind the counter opposite the entrance to the Shoal Club.
• There is another one in the Yucatan, held by a zombie cop near the LMG..

TriviaEdit

• The shotgun appears to be based on a stainless steel Mossberg 500 Cruiser. (But can easily be mistaken for the Remington M-1100p crusier shotgun as well.)
• When Chuck equips a Shotgun, he will pump it immediately.
• There is a bug that prevents Chuck from pumping his shotgun, however the pumping sound is still heard. To fix it, just fire it and reequip it again.
