Summary
The Double and Trouble shotguns are exotic variants of the Pump Shotgun, as evident by the mesh used for the weapons being identical to the original Pump Shotgun, as well as other various factors like the internal weapon IDs being nearly identical (i.e. WID_Shotgun_Pump_Standard_Athena_DX for Double, and WID_Shotgun_Standard_Athena_SR_Ore_T03 for a legendary Pump Shotgun). However, since their introduction to Fortnite, the shotguns incorrectly make use of the reloading, firing, and equip sounds from the Sentinel Pump Shotgun. This is due to the fact that Double and Trouble were intended to be exotic variants of the Sentinel Pump Shotgun before being completed, as seen in the provided promotional image revealed before the official release and completion of development for Chapter 6: Season 4.

Additional Notes
This post was not created to be, and is not, a duplicate of FORT-1126108, as said bug report mentions Double and Trouble’s stats being different from the base Pump Shotgun, which are very obviously intentional.
