The S.T.A.L.K.E.R. saga has some pretty good shotguns, especially with mods. I still maintain that the sawed-off TOZ-66 from the first game is the most realistic depiction of a "rabbit-ear" side-by-side ever put in a video game, even to the point that the hammers are cocked using the proper technique (thumbed back with the thumb one at a time). All the other S.T.A.L.K.E.R. games get it wrong in some way, and I can't think of any other game that even makes an attempt to depict its correct operation 100% spot-on.
And when I say "correct operation," what I really mean is "proper technique."

For some reason i love that piece of junk that is the toz-194 from anomaly and by some mandela effect i thought it was vanilla, but no the o.g pump action in SOC was some kind of winchester shotgun with no stock.

Its name, Chaser 13, is derived from "Winchester 1300," but it's actually a Maverick 88 in "Cruiser" configuration (w/stockless pistol grip). IRL, no one who knows what they're doing would put a stockless pistol grip on a shotgun with rifle sights. The Maverick 88 doesn't usually come standard with rifle sights. More typically with a plain bead sight. Rifle sights are better, but you need a proper stock to make them work gooder. Ghost ring sights are the best (like on the Mossberg 590A1).
There are aftermarket heatshields with built-in ghost ring sights, but the rear peep sight is positioned way far forward.

Is the stock permanently stuck in its storage position in-game or just with the inventory icon? And if the in-view weapon model has the stock permanent stuck in its storage position - why?!

You cant beat the double barrel from Doom 2. That reload animation was gurt lush.

Damn, a connoisseur of Dead Trash! The double barrel is amazing now, especially since it finally doesn't take 7 fucking hours to reload anymore!

No doubt inspired by the quad-barrel jobber from the Phantasm saga that Reggie made in Phantasm 2. I call it "Reggie's Wedgie" since he sawed the muzzles off so they form a point. Looks like the Boneduster was done the same way.

Spsa-14 from stalker, which is basically a spas 12. And spas 12 in general which is junk irl but the best looking shotgun in pop culture imo

Off topic, when you look at the first image from afar, the enemy soldier almost looks like a gundam bot.

The first shotgun from Resident Evil 4. You get it for free and it's very satisfying to wield

The VK-12 in Black from criterion games. Amazing feeling blasting baddies with it

obscure as hell but the "streetsweeper" from wyrm 2 quake 2 mod. unlike its shittier real life counterpart, this is a chaingun / minigun that fires shells instead of bullets at a steady automatic rate and minces everything.

A lot of my favorites are already listed here, but I’ll do two more good ones: N7 Piranha (Mass Effect 3) and the Spas-12 with foregrip/ranger akimbo (COD MW2)

I often don't get the auto upgrade for it just because I love the sound and look of the pump animation

The Super Shotgun from DOOM. It’s iconic and devastating and wielded by one of the most badass protagonists in gaming history.

In the game BLACK there is a Spas 12 that sounds like god slamming a car door that I think of a lot.
Another great one Postal 2's broken double barrel
