- "There are few weapons that offer the comfort and familiarity of a shotgun. Built for close quarters combat, they provide immediate, violent conflict resolution."
- — Grimoire Description
Shotguns are time-honored holdout weapons that are quite common and known for their reliability. Their sturdy frame can accommodate a variety of attachments and accessories.[1]
Shotguns are only effective at close range with the exception of both The Chaperone and Universal Remote.[2] At maximum range their damage output is 20% lower than at closer ranges.[3]

Trivia
- Many shotguns make use of six o'clock hold iron sights, where a target is sighted just above the barrel of the weapon instead of through a pair of points mounted on top of the barrel, as in other iron sights.
- For gameplay reasons, the low effective range and pellet spread of shotguns in Destiny is greatly exaggerated compared to reality, as a real shotgun would need to have a comically short barrel to come anywhere close to the range and spread of shotguns in-game.
- Some shotguns in Destiny 1 like Matador 64 and Party Crasher +1 have their gauge printed on the side.
- They both take 12 Gauge shells.
