Frontier Justice

The Frontier Justice is an unlockable primary weapon available for the Engineer to be released with the Engineer Update. This shotgun cannot randomly Crit and has half the magazine size of the regular Shotgun, but can get Revenge Crits: For every kill your Sentry racks up, upon its destruction the Frontier Justice gets 2 guaranteed Crits. For every assist, it gets 1. This applies even if the Engineer destroys his own Sentry with the PDA.

Trivia

Radigan Conagher holding the Frontier Justice.

This is the Frontier justice achievement it has a crosshair hinting that the Frontier Justice can zoom

• The Frontier Justice was first teased in the Mac update trailer before being officially announced on July 5, 2010.
• The Frontier Justice appears to have been designed by Radigan Conagher, the Engineer's ancestor. This is shown by a hidden link in the Engineer Update
• The Frontier Justice apparently generates its critical hits by a battery attached to the chamber. This would explain why critical hits have an electrical effect.
• It seems the Frontier Justice can zoom in like the [Sniper Rifle] because there is a cylinder shape like a scope on the gun als o the [Frontier justice] achievement has a crosshair in the picture hinting that it can scope in.
