The Double Barrel Shotgun
The Double Barreled Shotgun, AKA Bad Company and occasionally “The Side By Side”, is Josh's faithful firearm companion of over 10 years. Involved in many hair-raising scenarios, the shotgun is a staple of Josh's core identity not only as a goth rockstar cowboy from hell, but also as a god damned American.

Major Incidents
First appearances
Josh would first buy the shotgun in January of 2014, during The Stephanie Saga. Claiming it was for home defense, Josh would purchase it for an extremely goth AF $420.00. Not long after that, Josh would begin customizing it with a shoulder strap made from a busted guitar string and a leather strap, and a monster energy sticker on the side.
First break
It would not take long for Josh to break the shotgun. A few weeks would pass before Josh would attempt to close the breech one-handed, resulting in a hairline fracture in the stock. As these kinds of fractures can be extremely dangerous, Josh would opt to fix the crack with gorilla glue, which would destroy it for the time being.
First Shells
Josh would finally get to shoot his shotgun for the first time in late June 2015, when he was hanging out with his good homeboy Darfliny, shooting at nothing. Despite the shotgun being basically broken, Josh would still fire a few shells for the sake of firing it.
Repair Job
During The Rebirth Saga, Josh would finally get his shotgun fixed in July/August, returning Bad Company to its former glory. It's debatable how much was actually “Fixed” per se, as it seemed that Josh would spend quite a lot of money getting it fixed, leading to the belief that he was getting fleeced. Josh would also field a temporary Facebook ban for brandishing his shotgun live on stream, much to his chagrin.
Poor gun safety habits
Josh would appear on a panel live stream with enabler and cheerleader Courtney Neidt once again brandishing his shotgun while under the influence. This would become way worse, as Josh would dissolve into a rant decrying suicide before revealing that the shotgun was loaded, causing the tone of the stream to take a dark turn.
The NakedAndLaughing Incident
Perhaps the darkest moment in Boglim History, Josh would get into a major argument with nakedandlaughing, in which Jessica would goad Josh into taking his shotgun and putting it under his chin, planning to commit suicide with it. Thankfully, the shotgun was unloaded, although one can hear a very clear “click” associated with a dry fire.
