Fortnite has brought a familiar weapon back into the game! We have the stats for the lever shotgun for you and show you where to find it.
Fortnite Patch 25.20 not only brought a Futurama crossover and new weapons to the game, but the update also brought the lever action shotgun back to Battle Royale! The weapon was first added in Chapter 2 Season 5, so many of you probably remember it.
And if not, we have the exact stats of the weapon for you and show you how to get it!
Fortnite Lever Action Shotgun: Stats
The Lever Action Shotgun is a slow firing, close range shotgun. It has a medium spreading circle that can be narrowed by aiming downward. The weapon fires slowly because the lever must be operated between shots, similar to the pump shotgun.

The weapon in Fortnite is available from Common to Legendary, with each rarity level dealing additional damage. The rate of fire and magazine size are the same at each level. These are the stats for the shotgun:
| Rarity | Damage (body) | Damage (builds) | Reload Time |
| Common | 93.6 | 45 | 6.6s |
| Uncommon | 98.1 | 47 | 6.3s |
| Rare | 103.5 | 50 | 6s |
| Epic | 108.9 | 53 | 5.7s |
| Legendary | 114.3 | 55 | 5.4s |
Fortnite Lever Action Shotgun: Location
The Lever Action Shotgun is part of Fortnite's normal loot pool. That means it can be found on the ground, in normal and rare chests, in drones, as well as in holo chests and by capturing a location.
So you shouldn't have any problems getting the "new" shotgun in Fortnite, but of course the rarer ones are harder to find, so it pays to know all the locations of the upgrade benches in Chapter 4 Season 3.
