I have no experience with any of the newer models such as the Baikal, but my guess is that "inexpensive" and "smooth and reliable" may not go together.
Double barrel shotty Pc#
And last.but certainly not least in many is about as PC a defense weapon as you can find.ĭisadvantages? Well, if you are facing an army of non-demon home invaders, you would probably prefer something that holds a little more ammo and can squirt lead a little faster.
Double barrel shotty professional#
(hold two spare rounds between the support fingers like the professional hunters in Africa do) Not so sure about that, but you CAN be PDQ with a smooth-actioned twice-barrel. Jeff Cooper used to say that a well trained man can fire four rounds from a double with ejectors faster that he can from, say a plugged pump or auto which only holds three. (Of course you can do this with extractors, too, just much more slowly) where you can reload quickly in relative safety. Not sure if these guns have selective ejectors, (probably not) but if they do, you can use one barrel and keep the other in reserve if behind cover, etc. You can also choose which barrel to fire in what order.not an option with most affordable doubles these days.and can do it without the fragile and rather complicated linkage required to do this with hammerless guns. The external hammer guns allow the hammer springs to be in the "at rest" position yet the gun can remaim loaded and ready for quick use. I want to examine the use of hammered double barreled shotguns from an intellectual perspective and discuss the advantages/disadvantages of the system and I want to discuss fighting techniques which can be employed with this system.Īdvantages? All doubles allow keeping two different loads at the instant ready, say, #00 Buck and slug, etc. So I'm not asking about which gun I should buy.
Quite frankly any kind of home invader, short of a SWAT team, that comes in my house isn't going to survive very long. I am not asking which shotty that I should buy for self defense. Now let's stay focused on doubles please. I'll keep my opinion to myself for a change. I have some thoughts on this, but I'd like to get your feedback. How would you use it? Does it have advantages which other shotty's don't offer? Is there some useful advantage of using a dbl. barrel shotty with real external hammers in a self defense/CQB role? Now I know you wouldn't pick it for CQB, but let's say you had to.
Double barrel shotty full#
You can load up 200 rounds of shotgun ammo and clear a room full of Hell Spawn critters in seconds, but what about non-demon home invaders? Now we all KNOW that the double barrel Shotty is the BEST weapon in this Solar System for taking out Cyber Demons. Clearly there is a modern use for derringers (no other way that I know of to get 2 shots of. And I wonder if there is a modern use for them. I'm not a Cowboy Action Dude, but I always liked dble barrelled shotty's, pistols (derringers), etc.
And its supposedly safe!!!!! (kind of rare in an external hammer design). The stages carried passengers, mail, and gold: Juicy targets for outlaws.Anybody seen those EAA IZH43KH 12 guage double barrel shotty's? According to what I've read on these, EAA finally added a real external hammer double barrel shotty to their product line. messengers were outfitted with short Ithaca shotguns to guard stagecoach shipments along the lawless 2,800-mile route from Tipton, Missouri to San Francisco. The term originated in the 1858 when Wells Fargo & Co. Shotguns in this role were also called messenger guns. Such a gun could be brought to bear quickly, pointed easily, and could unleash a significant payload with a decent spread at even close ranges to fend off aggressors on horseback. Dave MaccarĬompact smoothbores worked as great defensive tools for travelers on roads plagued by bandits and thieves. The CZ Hammer Coach gun is rated for modern 3-inch shells and has fixed-choke barrels bored to cylinder. They typically sported exposed double hammers and double triggers. They came as ready-made guns from factories or were cut down from longer barreled hunting guns by individuals or gunsmiths, as needed. They were generally side-by-side double guns in 12 or 10 gauge, and occasionally 16 gauge, with barrel lengths anywhere from 12 to 24 inches. The specs for an Old West coach gun are fairly liberal yet specific.
