The S1897 (Winchester 1897) is a shotgun type weapon in BATTLEGROUNDS.

The Winchester Model 1897 "Trench Gun" (simply called the S1897 in-game) was designed by John Moses Browning. More than a million have been produced during its service era, used in conflicts from the Philippine-American War all the way through to the Gulf War. Typically chambered for 12 and 16 gauge, the in-game iteration is chambered solely for 12 gauge shotshell. Since its introduction in 1897 it has seen usage with military, law enforcement and hunters due to its effectiveness in close range combat, and now sees usage within BATTLEGROUNDS as a common shotgun.

Summary

The S1897 excels in clearing houses with the simple point-and-shoot principle, its spread allowing a greater probability of hitting the target. Careful aim is still essential since missing one shot can easily result in death due to the time required to rack the pump.

With a choke attached, the shotgun gains considerable range in the form of 25% tighter spread, being able to take out opponents from a fairly long distance. The reduced spread means reduced effectiveness in close quarters combat however. The duckbill choke has the opposite effect, spreading the pellets over a wider horizontal area, increasing effectiveness at close range.
