The Lever-Action Shotgun is a weapon in Fallout: New Vegas.

Gameplay

This shotgun has a lever-action (similar to the Cowboy Repeater) and fires 20 Gauge Rounds. It has the highest damage-per-second of all 20-gauge shotguns. The only real disadvantages to the lever-action are the ammunition capacity and the fact that it must be single-loaded instead of feeding from a detachable magazine.

The gun can be interrupted mid-way through reloading and fired immediately if needed. It can cause the knockback effect. The Lever-Action Shotgun has the distinction of being the only weapon boosted by both the Cowboy and Shotgun Surgeon perks.

Durability

The Lever-Action Shotgun can fire a total of about 495 standard shells, the equivalent of 99 reloads, from full condition before breaking.

Ammunition Type	Durability
	Shots	Reloads
Standard, 3/0 buck, slug & pulse slug	495	99
Magnum & 3/0 buck Magnum	430	86

Behind the scenes

Bugs

PC Xbox 360 Jam animations were unused in weapons with looping reloads like the Lever-Action Shotgun due to bugs, and as a result, they will never jam, even at near-breaking condition.
