Stoeger O/U Double Defense

Anyone played with one of these beauties? I know it's not a Benelli. Already have one of those. Something about this just screams out to me.

That looks a little 'tacti-cool'. I can't see me needing one though. After a range trip or 3, off to the corner it goes. A short barreled 500 or 870 will do.
 
I know that it is kind of silly but I also find these quite interesting. To bad that they have black painted wood stocks and not synthetic.
 
I owned a stoger junk shotgun 12/20 combo...would never own another stoger product after mine FTF out of the box, then started to fire both barrels...sent it back 2x & after 9 months of CS crud they sent me a new combo set...I prompty sold it.
 
I just think it would make a killer bedside the bed gun. Outfit it with a light, red dot, sidesaddle, and polish the chambers so the shells drop free with a shake like the cowboy action shotguns.

That is weird.

Still,,, I kinda like the dang thing but I don't know why because I'm definitely NOT a fan of the tactical fad.
 
Bet it is priced so that if you drop it and ding it up a bit, you won't get that horrible feeling in the pit of your stomach.
 
It may be pretty good for hunting out of a blind in close quarters. I know its a pain having a longer barreled/receiver gun while hunting out of a blind. If this thing had treaded chokes it would make me think twice about it.

Never said it was good for anything. LOL

I'm just drawn to it for some unexplainable reason.
Kinda like a Moth to a flame.

Not enough to actually buy one mind you,

Well, with all that barrel porting, you'd be getting your little moth wings torched off if you ever fired that baby in a confined space. Holy hothands, batman. You'd take out the bad guy and take out your hearing and probably eyesight as well.

Again,,, "I'm not part of the tacticool crowd" and have no intention of buying one but to quote you in a previous thread, "Even an idiot" can see that's a light/gadget rail. Not porting holes.
And an even bigger "idiot" would know that nobody's gonna loose their eyesight from firing the d-m thing.

I have one of the SXS coach guns set up just like that once you get the hang of it you can load fire and dump the empties pretty dang quick. It lives right beside my bed now
