Must be the rare single-barrelled variant.

Good luck catching Getaway. There isn't a cell he can't bust out of, an ambush he can't slip out of, or pursuer he can't leave in the dust (well, most of the time). On the rare occasions he's cornered, his trusty double-barrelled plasma-shell shotgun will let him blast his way out of whatever jam he's in.
