Sep 13, 2018 The caravan shotgun is a weapon in Fallout: New Vegas. Sturdy caravan shotgun repaired. posted in New Vegas Mod Requests: I hate the vanilla/Couriers Stash Caravan Shotgun sights because of how much of the screen they take up, but I want to still be able to use it in the early game. I saw SpamPTRSs fix for the base game Caravan Shotgun but he said he wont alter the Sturdy Caravan Shotgun from the Couriers Stash DLC/Caravan Pack. The 'Caravan Shotgun' is commonly found on, fittingly, Crimson Caravan guards. The Caravan Shotgun is a decent weapon, being an almost direct upgrade over the Single Shotgun but kept back by the weak 20 gauge chambering. Players who pre-ordered the 'Caravan Pack' version of New Vegas (or purchased the 'Couriers' Stash' DLC) acquired a 'Sturdy.

Background
A shotgun, also called a 'scattergun', is a firearm designed to shoot a multitude of projectiles with a single pull of the trigger. This makes it very effective at hunting game, greatly increasing the weapon's hit potential. However, the accuracy and power found at close range diminish rapidly as you get farther away from the target. Shotguns designed for military use are often called 'combat shotguns'.

Hunting shotgun
The hunting shotgun is a long range precision shotgun used for hunting big game. This shotgun was built for accuracy and power, and is one of the best shotguns available, using rare but powerful 12 gauge shells. It's pump-action, which means there's a longer than average delay between shots. It also loads through the bottom.

Caravan shotgun
The caravan shotgun is a short shotgun in which one barrel is mounted on top of the other, also known as an 'over/under' shotgun. The iron sight is a screw which holds the action release lever to the receiver.
