StageCoach Shotguns

[Guest Xmidnite_riderX]

Whats everyones opinion on these shot guns, I found a gun shop in cookville that has a good selection, 410, 20 and 12 gauge for $349 ea, i believe they were IMA brand, looked really good, just never heard of the company, was looking for one to add to the collection, and with the 20 inch barrell would be a decent home defense gun also, anyone know anything about these guns

CZ makes a real beauty,with exposed hammers and all. Really a nice gun.

I don't know about the ones you speak of, but Guns and Leather always has a few on the floor racks. I believe they are usually the Chinese ones.

[Guest jackdog]

Streoger arms makes one in the 349.00 price range. They are made in Italy.

I really like the CZ though. It looks old west with the exposed hammers, wish it came in 10 gauge.

I have a Rossi 20Ga.double with 20in.barrel's and exposed hammer's made in the early 70's. I LOVE IT !!!

I have not seen the IMA brand. But I own a Stoeger Coach Gun and it's at about the same price point. I used the Stoger for cowboy action shooting and it has been very reliable with no problems. It seems to be very popular in cowboy action shooting for its robust build quality. If you want a good review go onto one of the cowboy action shooting websites and do a search on the brand your looking at. If it's a coach gun someone there has tried it out.

AT the moment i cant remember the name of the shop, but its right on I-40 at the last cookeville exit headed east, you can see it from the interstate, i am in kingsport right now and try to remember to get the name of the shop friday on the way home, may stop and pick one up in either 410 or 20 ga, depends on how my mad money holds out

[Guest Xmidnite_riderX]

[56FordGuy]

It's on Highway 41 in Greenbriar, which is just north of Nashville.

Great shop, they had several stoegers when I was there on Saturday.

Thanks! that's good enough to go on. I've passed this on to my bro.

Personally, I just picked up an old, beat up $125 springfield arms double barrel, and cut the barrel down.

My bud and I saw a stage coach gun here in town the other day. It has two safetys on it, plus the hammer pulls. It was made in China I believe, but it was neat looking.

It's called "outdoor junction" exit 290. I stop there time to time to pick up ammo really nice people. They are in process of building indoor range. Hope to be finished soon. I commute knoxville to cookeville 2-3 times a week. Looks like good hiding place for future.

[Guest hickok]

I have both the Rossi and the Stoeger and have used both in cowboy matches. Both are built well. I like the hammer models - easier to break open and close, as the opening function isn't used to cock the gun. Both have their advantages and disavantages, though.

Just picked up the cimmaron coach in 12G at Sevier Indoor Range today for $500 OTD.

Brsautiful Stock and gloss finish on the blueing.

[Guest Jennings382]

I went by Gander and they said IMA was some Brazilian brand. They look and shoot just like a stoeger supposedly.

Love the coach guns. Saw the Stoeger 12 ga. in stainless steel at the Gander Mountain in Jackson, TN. Almost bought it. Might one day.

[K191145]

I have a Stoeger Uplander, wish I had the coach but I like Stoegers. Inexpensive for a SxS and good quality. Gun Test Magizine editors like Stoegers also.

[Guest hickok]

I'm a fan of coach guns; I'd like to see one of these CZ guns. Thus far, my Rossi is about the only modern coach gun I've seen that looks/feels/seems pretty authentic, whatever that means.

Thread resurrection...

Who has one?

What do you have?

Do you like it?

What brands to stay away from?

Buy old or new?

Hammers or not?...nevermind....I like the hammers...

I'll add a plug for the CZ too. They are a great shotgun. The build quality cant be beat.

Sadly, like lots of other things, the price is commensurate with the "build quality".

Having said that, they are a great shotgun, even considering the price.

I picked up a Rossi with working hammers a while back at Guns & Leather. Looked unfired and the price was great. Really cool looking!
