The Winchester Widowmaker shotgun is a small gun in Fallout 2.
Background[]
A Winchester Widowmaker double-barreled 12 gauge shotgun. A short barrel, with mahogany grip.[1]
Characteristics[]
A decent early game weapon, the shotgun is outclassed by the hunting rifle. However, it will do as a primary weapon for John Cassidy or Vic until something better comes along.
Variants[]
- Sawed-off shotgun: A Widowmaker shotgun with the barrels sawn-off. This results in higher maximum damage (by two points), but the range is cut down to a meager 7 hexes.

Behind the scenes[]
- The weapon's appearance is, of course, a reference to Mad Max and his signature gun. The sawed-off variant, even more.
- The actual Winchester Widowmaker was an autoloading shotgun, rather than the conventional break-open weapon seen here.
