This unidentified shotgun is a human-made shotgun available for civilian usage.[1][2]
Overview[edit]
Design details[edit]
The shotguns appear to come in long and short-barrelled variants.[1][2]
Service history[edit]
Following the glassing of Minab in 2550, Holly Tanaka and the other civilian survivors of the attack made use of these shotguns to hunt for food and defend themselves against Kig-Yar scavengers.[1][2]
Production notes[edit]
- Main article: Cut Halo: Reach weapons
This shotgun design was originally concepted by artist Glenn Israel for inclusion in Halo: Reach, alongside a similar civilian hunting rifle design.[3] These weapons were ultimately cut from the game, before later being reused in The Glass Horizon story arc of Halo: Escalation in 2015. The shotguns designed for Reach had wooden furniture, whereas the ones shown in Escalation have more modern furniture.[4][5]
