- "This close-range version of the double-barreled shotgun packs a big boom for its size. It's like carrying a primary weapon in your secondary slot."
— In-game Description
The Sawed-Off Shotgun is a secondary weapon available in XDefiant. The Sawed-Off Shotgun was first released in Season 1.
Overview[]
The Sawed-Off Shotgun is the only secondary weapon to function differently from a handgun or revolver. Comparative to its longer-barreled version, the Sawed-Off has worse range and even less attachment options, at the benefit of being in the secondary weapon slot.

Patch Notes[]
July 31st, 2024 Patch
- It's an extravaganza of shotgun balancing. Here's the nitty-gritty of each weapon's tuning:
- Sawed-Off Shotgun
- Reserve ammo increased from 6 to 10.
- Sprint-to-shoot time reduced from 250ms to 150ms.
- Crouch slide, in air, and mantle spread reduced by 40 percent, from 11.25-15.0 to 6.68-9.0 degrees.
- Sawed-Off Shotgun
- Added the Sawed Off secondary weapon. This close-range version of the double-barreled shotgun packs a big boom for its size. Imagine carrying a primary weapon in your secondary slot and that's this.
