Description
The infamous stage coach shotgun - a practical response to lawless bandits violently ravaging vulnerable stagecoaches - was initially developed in 1881 and became a staple of travelers in the late 19th century. Indeed, the term "riding shotgun" came from this dangerous passenger-seat duty.
This exciting non-firing replica, which is the authentic size and weight of the original, features a time-worn appearance, hard wood stock, an antiqued metal barrel, working action, and a realistic break-open design revealing the lead-splitting double barrels. Measures 35" long.
