<P style="MARGIN: 0px">big_fish,</P> <P style="MARGIN: 0px">I've often considered purchasing a coach gun, myself. <IMG src="http://www.websitetoolbox.com/images/boards/smilies/love.gif" align=absMiddle border=0> I have 2 Russian Baikals: an O/U w/ 28" barrels and a semi-auto w/ 24" barrel. I love 'em both and have give some serious thought to purchasing the coach gun that they make with 20" barrels, 3 screw-in choke tubes, 3" chamber and in 12 gauge.....for close range or fun or home defense or whatever. At $350, it wouldn't be a bad choice. <IMG src="http://www.websitetoolbox.com/images/boards/smilies/thumb.gif" align=absMiddle border=0></P> <P style="MARGIN: 0px"> </P> <P style="MARGIN: 0px">I know a guy that has one and has the Full and Full choke tubes in it and he says that it'll impress you for how much range it has. He shot a groundhog with 00 buck, at 35 yards and it "cleaned his clock". <IMG src="http://www.websitetoolbox.com/images/boards/smilies/biggrin.gif" align=absMiddle border=0></P> <P style="MARGIN: 0px"> </P> <P style="MARGIN: 0px">Good luck with your choices!</P> <P style="MARGIN: 0px">Good hunting, Bowhunter57</P>
