Trivia
- โThe Sawed-off Shotgun is held like a pistol or revolver in Red Dead Redemption; despite this, Marston will holster it on his back.
- โMarston is seen on the North American and UK cover of the game holding this (in every other region, Marston is holding a revolver and the background of the cover is different).
- โThe Shotgun also has the same execution animations as a pistol or revolver. Rather than putting the gun under someone's chin, as he would with a long weapon, Marston usually puts the gun about midriff-level and pulls the trigger point-blank.
- โDuring Dead Eye targetting while on foot, Marston will strangely fan the shotgun as if it was a revolver.
- โA glitch occurs if Marston holsters the Sawed-off Shotgun while riding shotgun on a carriage. Instead of placing on his back, he holsters it by his side (as one would with a pistol or revolver).
- โJohn has indicated on several occasions that he likes this weapon.
- โDuring the mission "Landon Ricketts Rides Again", if this weapon is holstered on Marston's back when he takes his seat on the train, he will still pull it out and hold it like a rifle during the cutscene.
