For homeowners and ranchers who value simple, time-tested reliability in a defensive shotgun, a side-by-side scattergun offers immediate point-and-shoot ergonomics and uncompromising durability. Short barrels, clear sightlines and traditional controls make these guns intuitive under stress while delivering the blunt-force stopping power required for close-quarters defense.

Stoeger Coach Gun is built on that Old West heritage while adding modern manufacturing consistency and value.

Design and ergonomics

The Stoeger Coach Gun captures the look and feel of the classic stagecoach guard scattergun with practical updates. An attractive, smoothly contoured trigger guard and choice between single- and double-trigger configurations give shooters a selection based on training and preference. Brass bead sights provide a fast, unambiguous sight picture ideal for quick target acquisition in low-light or high-stress scenarios.

Key features explained

Double trigger & single-trigger options

Double triggers allow immediate selection of either barrel without mechanical selector manipulation—valuable for shooters who prefer instinctive operation. Single-trigger models simplify the control layout and can be preferable for newer shooters or those who favor a single, consistent trigger pull.

Fixed chokes (IC, M) and shell extractors

Fixed Improved Cylinder (IC) and Modified (M) chokes are well-suited to close- and mid-range defensive work: IC for widest patterns at very short ranges, M for denser mid-range patterns. Shell extractors speed reloads by presenting spent hulls for hand removal—an asset during training, competition, or a defensive reload under stress.

Applications and value

Whether used for Cowboy Action shooting, ranch tasks, or as a dedicated home defense tool, the Stoeger Coach Gun balances traditional styling with practical defensive capability. Brand reliability from Stoeger and the availability in various models mean you can select the configuration that best matches your use case. At an MSRP of $455.99, it’s an accessible option for buyers seeking authentic form with functional features.
