Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 4 brings back a fan-favorite mechanic—the Double Pump Shotgun—with a new twist. Known as “Double Trouble,” this powerful Mythic weapon combo revives the fast-swap pump strategy that defined early Fortnite combat. But unlike the old days, not everyone can use it. Here’s how to get the Double Trouble Shotguns and dominate the island.
What Is the Double Trouble Shotgun?
The Double Trouble is not one shotgun but two Mythic weapons—Double and Trouble—designed to be used together. They can be swapped between instantly, allowing for a high-damage, no-delay double-shot combo reminiscent of the infamous Double Pump meta from Chapter 1.
Stats (each shotgun):
- Damage: 121 (Body), 200 (Headshot)
- Fire Rate: 0.7
- Magazine Size: 5
- Reload Time: 3.05 seconds
- Effect: Restores health with each hit (Siphon)
Players can instantly switch between them with zero delay, effectively reviving the classic Double Pump strategy for high-burst combos. Each hit also siphons health, giving aggressive players a survival advantage in close-range fights.

How to Unlock Double Trouble in Chapter 6 Season 4
Unlike standard loot, you can’t just stumble upon these shotguns in a chest. Here’s the exact path to unlocking them:
1. Reach O.X.R. Rank A
To access the Mythic loot from bunkers, you must first rank up to O.X.R. Rank A. Players start at Rank C and progress by:
- Defeating bugs (Swarmers, Bombers, and Queens)
- Clearing infested outposts
- Capturing flags
- Eliminating players
Each rank-up grants an O.X.R. Drop Pod with loot and a boon. Once you hit Rank A, bunkers containing exotic gear—including Double Trouble—become accessible.
2. Locate the Correct O.X.R. Bunker
There are only two O.X.R. Bunkers available per match, and the one containing the Double Trouble Shotguns isn’t guaranteed to be active.
- Best Bunker to Check: North of Shiny Shafts
- Inside, you’ll find a display case housing both the Double and Trouble shotguns—free of charge.
Tip: Reach Rank A quickly and head to the Shiny Shafts bunker early to beat other players to the prize.
Why Only One Player Can Have Double Trouble
This isn’t a shared loot item. Only one player per match can claim this Mythic combo. Once opened, the shotguns won’t respawn or appear elsewhere, making it a high-risk, high-reward goal.
Is the Double Trouble Shotgun Worth It?
Absolutely. Double Trouble is one of the strongest close-range options in Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 4. It:
- Restores health with each hit
- Delivers massive burst damage
- Allows instant weapon swapping with no delay
- Outperforms most other shotguns in PvP
The only downside? If you miss your shots, you’re vulnerable during the reload cycle.
Where Does It Fit in the Current Meta?
With build fights and chaotic PvE battles against bugs, having a hard-hitting weapon that can also heal you makes Double Trouble extremely valuable—especially in solo and close-quarters team fights.
Combine it with:
- Shockwave Grenades for quick entry
- Double-Jump Medallion from Queen fights
- Flowberry Fizz for healing and mobility
Final Tips for Getting Double Trouble Shotgun
Since only two O.X.R. Bunkers open per match—and the one with Double Trouble may not spawn—you’ll need to act fast and plan smart. Reaching O.X.R. Rank A early and knowing where to go can make the difference between getting the shotguns or missing out entirely.
- Prioritize O.X.R. Rank Progression: Don’t waste time looting—focus on ranking up fast.
- Memorize Bunker Locations: Especially the one north of Shiny Shafts.
- Bring Mobility Items: You’ll need to move quickly once the bunker opens.
- Watch for Enemies Camping Bunkers: This weapon is hotly contested—expect ambushes.
