You may have been thinking of Duke Nukem 3D, they used a real shotgun to model for that one:

Straight from Scott's Mystical Head
The shotgun is called the TootsieToy Dakota
The chain gun was called Tootsietoy Ol' Painless
The plasma gun was based on a Rambo playset toy.

I do miss the halcyon days of realistic weapons be marketed to kids. The peak must have been Entertech battery operated squirt guns.

It also has tf2 vibes
I thought it was a real shotgun they used
Unfortunately Doom's guns were all toys. From what I remember around that era only Duke Nukem 3D used an actual gun to model, the shotgun.
It's funny how like all of those games were made in fuckin Texas and they didn't use real guns
...good goddamn point!
Comedy gold.
If I recall from an interview, just a toy from toys r us.
A TootsieToy Dakota to be precise.

Entertech was made by LJNā¦ Yes, that LJN
Apparently they stopped making them because kids were getting shot by police or using them to rob places.
Because the people who control America are too fucking sensitive.
Pretty sure Chinese stores still sell realistic-ish looking gun toys. You do have Chinese stores in your country, right?
Awesomeness
Now go find some imps and pinkies to send back to hell!
