Historical Background:

The coach gun, a shortened double-barrel shotgun, earned its name from the armed guards who protected stagecoaches and wagons during the 19th century. Its compact design made it easy to maneuver in close quarters, providing devastating firepower against bandits and thieves. The weapon was widely used by lawmen, ranchers, and outlaws alike, becoming one of the most feared firearms of the Old West.

Favored for its ability to quickly stop threats at close range, the coach gun remained a popular choice well into the early 20th century. Its legacy endures in modern cowboy action shooting competitions and as a symbol of the American frontier.
