Of course the bead is enough. Unfortunately 3/4 of everyone else doesnt think so. A standard gun with no rail is enough though too but then again we still have the Stoeger Double defense. If there isnt a market, create one. Be it guns or accessories.
Give me a standard shotgun with a standard barrel without porting and a standard magazine capacity like 5 or 6 and a plain ol 18 or 20 inch barrel with a standard wood stock. Funny how this is an ideal setup for me but it wouldnt even qualify as a tactical shotgun in most gun companies catalogs because there isnt black stocks or rails or 8 shot capacities.
For a SWAT team or the like, I can see having a light on the weapon, but for HD, I don't like it. Why give the BD a target? There are other ways to illuminate what's in front of you without standing behind the light source.
I got a Stoeger side x side coachgun in 20 ga. It has the high- tech wood furniture for precision clubbing and shiny brass bead sight for rapid low- light target acquisition. Illumination provided by a mini- maglight taped under the barrels.
O.K., I kid. But in all seriousness, Stoeger makes a good shotgun. IMHO, I think that the simplicity of the coachgun is its advantage to Johnny Punchclocks like me who aren't trained to a high tactical standard like LE or FBI guys. All that extra gear would get in my way.
If all of the extra gear is to your taste, more power too you. I just like the KISS principle.
I have the 'Coach Gun' in 12ga Mag, I replaced the front sight with a fiber optic. much better IMO. I can see how the under bbl light could be handy. one of the tubular 9 bulb LED lights w/the end cap switch would suffice taped to the under barrel I think, maybe something I'll check into. nix the optics.
I'll bet Stoger sells some of those likely to folks w/out much expertise it's a fearful looking weapon for sure.
guys, it doesn't come with the red dot sight. so quit whining about it.
this has an advantage over pump. the second shot can be off alot quicker, as they did add some things to reduce kick on the gun. no pumping action required. a very simple, practicle shotgun IMHO.
I think the synthetic stock is a good idea. But all the accessories seem gimicky on a side by side and a waste of time. Does anybody know of any other synthetic stocked side by sides factory built like this one?
I like it for the simple fact that so many people seem to get a burr over it. Would be a hoot to throw an Aimpoint on top and a surefire underneath and head out to the local trap shoot. Really ham it up and ask if they mind if you run the flashlight during the day.
I saw these at the local gunshop for $399. They don't come with all the accessories pictured. They do have the rail and some sort of night vision style front sight. The gunshop had 20 and 12 gauge versions. They looked interesting to say the least....
hmmm a flash light isn't a terrible idea. I dont know about a red dot, zero it to the first shot or in the middle of both? There is a SxS with rifled barrels that you can adjust point of impact for both barrels so they are the same or one could be for longer range. If that is the case a scope or red dot would be useful for hunting.
