  • The Citadel side by side coach gun is a great shotgun, especially chambered in 20 gauge.

    Thanks for the review on this weapon. Oftentimes, side-by-side 20ga are overlooked by many. It appears 12ga is most sought after. Fine by me, as my double barrel is an old 20ga that is easy enough on my 70+ body, yet potent enough for anything that isn't wanted on my place in the woods. My preferred choice in shotguns. 👍

Sweet looking Shotgun and for me… they could leave that barrel selector off. Great video sir.

    I got a 12ga stoger coach gun. The deluxe duel trigger with stainless receiver and blued barrels with choke tubes.Very good looking. Fun as heck. Wanted a coach gun for a while. They just look cool. Lol I think the stoger is the best quality and value for what they cost. I heard the 12 and 20 gauge recoil were extremely close so I went 12ga for more ammo selections

  • @Mauser304
    @Mauser304 3 місяці тому +6

    The selector problem is common, more so with inexpensive side by side shotguns than over and under. I usually decide which barrel I want to fire first, configure my chokes to that parameter, and then put a touch of glue to hold the selector.

    • @mixup98
      @mixup98  3 місяці тому +5

      I am thinking of also configuring my chokes and then pinning the selector switch so it will fire the right barrel first. Glue sounds like a good solution too.

    I enjoyed, as always, your video covering this shotgun. But I would rather have one in blue or black chrome, with a "classic" fore and aft safety, auto ejectors, and either a gold bead or rifle style front sight (I'm NOT a fan of fiber optic sights on any firearm for personal and professional reasons). What would really trip my trigger, so to speak, would be if the shotgun came with two each of the screw in chokes and/or rifled slug barrels as a package.

The 1 i have now is the 4th , a full stock , manlicher typ stock . shoots very well . My coach gun started life as a stevens double field gun , not pretty but her and me have spent more time together than me and the wife . She aint pretty either . 2 days ago 2 grizzlles mopped past the kitchen window. turned right and preabulated past the front door . i live in Montana . right next to the mountains . That old double 12 shoots better than your 20 does . i have kept this old double close for many years . Either that or the S. Blk. Hwk. with my hand loads , 300 gr.cast with a great golup of h110 and a fed mag cap . This side arm thinks it is a young carbine. Wont tell you how well it shoots. When a person calls me a lier it rasis my irer . Anyway , like you and your Son. Gary

    That was fun. Congrats on the new gat. I have a blued Stoeger 12 gauge coach that I like a lot. It came with ejectors but I disabled them and now it just extracts. It's a single trigger as well but no selector switch - it just always shoots the right barrel first. Oh and no choke tubes - just modified and improved I think... I use this for CAS so it doesn't really matter.

      I found this little beauty at a gun shop in Ely, Nevada. I can't name the store due to youtube restrictions but it is the only family-owned sporting goods store in town.

    A side by side double barrel is on my wish list. I’ve seen some reviews of stoegers with the single trigger bs the double trigger. On some of the reviews the single trigger would light strike the second shot and sometimes not fire. I have a Yildiz over and under with single trigger but haven’t had any problems. In the future let us know how it performs. Thanks for your videos I really enjoy them.

      I have a Stoeger coach gun with the two triggers and I've never had a single problem with it. In fact I used it in cowboy action shooting and it helped me win lots of matches. Don't have any experience with the single trigger Stoeger shotguns.

    Unfortunately, Turkish-made long guns can be a hit or miss. I personally won't buy one for that reason, but their handguns seem pretty solid. I bought a Turkish-made TISAS Service Special in .45 ACP, and the fit and finish is pretty damn good. That being said, I haven't broken it down to clean it first before I hit the range, which will be the first thing I do, so I'll be able to see the inside of it properly. But I doubt there will be any defects. Got it brand new for $349. I highly recommend taking a look at TISAS (also known as "SDS Imports").
    In regards to LSI: I have an LSI Puma M92 in .454 Casull that a buddy gave me back in the mid-2000s. It's got a 16" barrel and stainless steel with fiber optic sights. I love it, but I haven't shot it in years. The front sight needs to be pinned back into place, or maybe I'll just use some JB Weld. It's finicky with loads above 260 grains, but you can fit 300 grainers in there if you angle the gun right when you cock the lever. Great fireball too! And this one was made in South America (Brazil?), not Turkey.
    How are the temps there in Nevada? Here in Oregon we're just coming out of a week-long heat wave in the low-100s. One more day of this shit and then it's back to 90s and 80s, praise be. Not fun only having one 6,0000 BTU A/C in the window when there's no insulation either lol.
    Anyways, love the videos! Take care!

    I just searched to see who manufactures the Citadel double. Several sources state the Philippines. (?) Also, since I would be using two most open chokes I would "carefully" apply some JB Weld with a tooth pick to the selector.

    I've had doubled barreled shotguns in the past (way, way, way back in the day) but have seen that the price of these things are just way too high compared to other action of shotguns. I've concluded that, though these things are easier to make, these have become boutique items with an associated price point.

    I have a Stoeger coach 12 Guage. Two triggers for double barrel booming fun! I like that nickel finish, though. I'm a recoil junkie so I've fired both barrels at once with 3 inchers.

      Do that a few times and you will definitely blow up a SxS. They're designed for around 13-14,000 psi. Double that and you're in danger!

    A lot of new shooters may consider these for cowboy action shooting, but that sight is an issue. Wonder if it's easy to change out to a bead.
