M1897 Trenchgun

The M1897 Trench Gun is a pump action shotgun you that is found in all the Call of Duty: World at War Zombie maps. The gun is produced by America and has a slow reload and very limited range, but high damage. Due to its slow reload time It is best used with the Speed Cola perk. The Trench Gun is often used in Nazi Zombies over the Double Barrel Shotgun due to its high power, better ammo capacity and its larger pellet spread.

When the M1897 is placed in the Pack-A-Punch Machine, it becomes "The Gut Shot". This version has increased range and damage, and reloads two bullets at a time. The Gut Shot holds the additional advantage of being able to kill Hellhounds in one shot (depending on range). The Gut Shot has a 10 round capacity and its pellet spread is decreased.
