Weapon Background

The Winchester Model 1897, also known as the Model 97, M97, or Trench Gun, was a pump-action shotgun with an external hammer and tube magazine manufactured by the Winchester Repeating Arms Company. The Model 1897 was an evolution of the Winchester Model 1893 designed by John Browning. From 1897 until 1957, over one million of these shotguns were produced. The Model 1897 was offered in numerous barrel lengths and grades, chambered in 12 and 16 gauge, and as a solid frame or takedown. The 16-gauge guns had a standard barrel length of 28 inches, while 12-gauge guns were furnished with 30-inch length barrels. Special length barrels could be ordered in lengths as short as 20 inches, and as long as 36 inches. Since the time the Model 1897 was first manufactured it has been used by American soldiers, police departments, and hunters.

Character Design

The weapon model she carries is a Trench Grade Model 1897. Her outfit is symbolic for "cleaning" (apron, gloves, cleaning agent) the trenches (entrenching tool, trench grade gun), making a pun of her weapon nickname "Trench Sweeper".

Trivia

• During WWI, slamfire was used by US troops and proved effective in trench raids. With this technique, operators could unleash rapid fire to devastating effect in less than 2 seconds. While slamfire itself is considered extremely dangerous as it would increase the chance of out-of-battery detonation and breech explosion, the M1897 could be the first shotgun in the world able --if not, intended-- to slamfire due the lack of trigger disconnector, enabling it to be fired without releasing the trigger.
• During WWI, the German Empire protested against the usage of the M1897 Shotgun, arguing that the weapon violates the 1907 Hague Convention, where using weapons causing unnecessary suffering to the victim is forbidden. The US disregarded the protest, prompting Germany to threaten to summarily execute captured soldiers armed using a trench gun (or even only carrying trench gun shells). There's no evidence any such execution actually took place. The Wehrmacht and Special Forces of the Third Reich didn't issue any combat shotgun during World War II.
• Ironically, German-made flamethrowers (2-man Grossflammenwerfer and man-portable Kleinflammenwerfer M.16) and mustard gas that broke the laws of war remained in use. Making the same argument about unnecessary suffering, American General Pershing counter-threatened German forces to execute captured soldiers using flamethrowers and saw-back bayonets (Kurzes Seitengewehr).
