Stoeger .410 Coach Gun

[OK Corgi Rancher]

I really like .410 shotguns. I feel like I'm a kid all over again when I shoot them. A Sears single-shot .410 was my very first gun and I still have it.

I found this "blem" Coach Gun at KyGunCo at a bargain price. There's a scratch on the left side of the receiver and the finish on the forearm is slightly crinkled in a few spots. I don't care. It doesn't affect the function or fun-factor of the gun.

Those guns were a steal, that’s sharp looking. I’ve got a Stevens 311 that I’ve really enjoyed shooting recently. I’ve got some TSS and plan to shoot a turkey with it in a couple weeks. Like you said, 410s are fun.

Killed my first duck on the wing with my moms Stevens single shot .410, and a pickup bed full of squirrels. Dad worked it over for her in the late 50’s. She gave it to my son for Christmas one year before she passed. That thing is still tight as a tick and will eject an empty over the house. My dad had a slew of old Winchester .410 pump guns that weren’t shot as long as he owned them. They likely were back in the 30s and 40s though but not much. When I was a kid I hankered for bigger bores. With age I figured out that better shooters can use smaller shells. My eye is out for a 28 bore double trigger sxs with an English wrist or Prince of Wales. The Turks make a couple of nice ones if a vintage Scotty or trade gun doesn’t fall in my lap. The price of the Connecticut Shotgun RBLs has doubled since the launch, though they’re still not bad for the money.

My mom's fie 410 single shot got a lot of use in the 70s on through the 90s and off & on since then.

She got it iirc in 75' at otasco so she could shoot rabbits running in our gardens, corn & melon fields, she had a early model 60 22lr she used pretty often to.

That 410 was my first quail & squirrel shotgun before I graduated up to my pop's h&r 20ga, then onto his 311 12ga. until I was 14 when he got me a win 120 pump 12ga.

I bought a mossburg 3shot bolt action 410 off a old dude in 86'or 87', it's alright for squirrel & rabbits just kinda heavy for a 410 bird gun.

Was going to get my woman a shockwave 410, which I should of just bought and brought to the house, we went to look at one first, she seen a pistol there she wanted more.

I can tell you the Shockwave .410 is more fun than a barrel of monkeys. So is the coach gun. I really enjoy shooting both of them.
