SxS Coach Gun?

#1 Post by jdwoodbury »

Anyone know where I could find a coach gun suitable for an FAC slot (will be used for CAS)?
The only one I have seen is this Pedersoli which is a bit pricy at £1355

There seems to be a few makers of coach guns, but all the info I have found is based out of the US.

No issues cutting down/converting a SxS to Section 1 other than it will not be the most accurate of things... :p

As a Section 1 shotgun they can be cut to 24" (12"+12") however they look awful like this in my opinion however leaning on the short side of LOP and an 16-18" ish barrel is a great compromise and looks the part as well.

What about the bit of the act that says you can only shorten a shotgun to repair a damaged part ?

Subject to this section, it is an offence to shorten the barrel of a shot gun to a length less than 24 inches.

(2)It is not an offence under subsection (1) above for a registered firearms dealer to shorten the barrel of a shot gun for the sole purpose of replacing a defective part of the barrel so as to produce a barrel not less than 24 inches in length
