After taking it, you need to put the "Broken Shotgun" (located at Green X) in its place to not trigger the trap.
As Jill, it is possible to trigger the trap and have Barry save you; to do so, pick the shotgun and get out of the room then open the opposite door, it would be locked, go back and try opening the door to the room that you got the Shotgun from and you won't be able to open it; a cutscene will play showing Barry saving you.
By doing this, you will also get the Achievement "What a Great Guy".
