The Taylor’s Wyatt Earp Coach Gun has a rich history in the western cowboy days as we see in the movies. Many consider these guns old school, but we can’t deny the fact they’re well-made and proven to get the job done when necessary. For so many years, the Coach Guns have been great self-defense weapons. As a firearm of historical significance, Wyatt Earp considered the double-barrel shotgun a primary weapon in his battle against crooks and outlaws. It’s been said that Mr. Earp is the only sheriff in the Western wild days who has never been grazed by a single bullet.

This 2-shot capacity 12 gauge coach gun has a barrel length of 20.06 inches. The barrels are featured side-by-side with case hardened finish and bead sights. It has an overall weight of 7.05 lbs including the wooden stocks.

Ease of Use and Performance

The Wyatt Earp coach gun is as accurate as single barrel shotguns, but what’s notable about it is its fast loading capability that allows even only one hand to open and place ammunition. The bead sights are quite old fashioned so you need a bit of gun expertise to handle this gun.

Pros and Cons

Aside from the 2-shot capacity a double barrel shotgun features, this gun is undeniably intimidating to someone facing it especially crooks. I’ve always enjoyed holding a side-by-side barrel shotgun as a child. Perhaps the only downside I can think of compared to modern shotguns is the capacity in which the new ones have more like the 5-shot semi-auto version.
