The good news is that you can get the shotgun extremely early on in Resident Evil 4 Remake. No need to stick with your lousy handgun and those 10 bullets.

Head inside the house and go up the stairs to the second floor, and you’ll find the shotgun hanging on the wall. Press X to pick it up and you’re all good to go.

You can grab the shotgun during the village attack, or even after the attack if you were too busy running around trying to survive. Whichever you choose, just make sure to pick it up before you continue on to the lake.
