Hey all,
I am looking to pick up a Stoeger Coach gun for both range/fun shooting and shop protection. My local gun store only has one on his shelves, it's the PLAIN blued version with FIXED choke barrels. Of course it is the 12 gauge with 20 inch barrels and twin triggers. I like the looks and the feel of the gun and the person I am getting it for likes it too. There's only one thing that is a negative and I want to ask you all about it. It is the FIXED choke barrels that come in IC and M.
Do you all think it is possible to have those barrels fit with choke tubes? Would there be any down side to it if it is possible?
Stoeger does have a fancier and prettier Coach gun that DOES come with choke tubes called the Coach Gun Supreme, but my dealer doesn't have one of them and since the one I am looking at and asking you all about has been in his shop for a while and handled quite a few times he is willing to give me a pretty darn good deal. That's why I am not just having him get me one of the Supreme models.
What do you think? Any suggestions?
If you have any other thoughts on other possible Coach Gun choices I should check out, feel free to let me know. I want 12 gauge, 3 inch shells, choke tubes and NO HAMMERS, I love 'em but the older hands that will be using this gun might have a hard time working them.
Thank you for your help and time, I appreciate it.
