They make weird choices with the shotguns in RE games. Like RE 2 and 3 are fine, in RE2 you get the shotgun in the safety deposit room which I guess is supposed to he the armory and it makes sense as a cops shotgun and in RE3 you get it out of the subway office where it's supposed to be a riot gun, I guess for subway cops. But in 1, 4 and 7 you find what should be hunting shotguns on the wall and they are all cut down to 18.5 or 20 inches when hunting shotguns are usually 26 to 32 inches long
