How to get it
Leon, ch04: Attic (Care Center 3F), on the floor next to the body on the west side, with 4 shells, as the Chunk fight starts. If you skip it, it waits on the Chapel altar (east side, ch07) and then goes into the Supply Box from Raccoon City East. First run only: on later runs (Insanity included) buy it at the Connecting Passage (3F) Supply Box before the Attic.
Verdict
Your only shotgun from ch04 to ch09: spend no credits on it and sell it for 2,500 when you buy the 990-TAC.
- Save the shells for the 3F Lounge (ch04): about 3 shots put a Blister Head down and a Hatchet finisher ends it.
- Against the Blister Borne (ch07) use it on the chest cysts.
- The wiki prices the level 1 Duralumin Bolt at 3,000; Game8 at 4,000.
- Leon Must Die Forever: the Turbo GT loadout gun (with the Hatchet).
