Few guns are as classically Old West as the side-by-side shotgun. Rare is a Western movie that did not feature this classic long gun. Today, Heritage Manufacturing announced the release of a new beautiful coach gun: the Heritage Coachwhip side-by-side shotgun.
Heritage Coachwhip Side by Side Shotgun
Heritage designed the Coachwhip to transport shooters back to the rugged beauty of the American frontier. The Heritage Coachwhip side-by-side shotgun is not just a mass-produced replica. It nods to the finely crafted shotguns your grandpa may have passed down. With its case-hardened frame and rich walnut stock, the Coachwhip is not just a shotgun—it’s an heirloom-quality firearm that captures the spirit of the Old West in every detail.
Classic Old West
This classic shotgun features 18-inch barrels and a classic bead sight for quick target acquisition. The exposed hammers and double triggers evoke the traditional coach guns that once safeguarded stagecoaches and homesteads, while the break-open action and tang safety provide the reliability of modern engineering.
Compared to side-by-side hunting shotguns, the Coachwhip has noticeably shorter barrels. This is by design, as these guns were often used as protection on stagecoaches. The shotgun supports both 2 ¾” and 3” shells. It is a beautiful gun, and the Turkish Walnut accents it well. With its exposed dual hammers and double triggers, it screams classic side-by-side.
An Heirloom Quality Shotgun
Heritage told me, “The Coachwhip is more than just a gun—it’s a piece of history brought to life, merging nostalgia with functionality. Whether displayed in a collection or put to use on the range, the Coachwhip is a perfect blend of tradition, craftsmanship, and Western grit.” If you want to take a ride into the past, the Heritage Coachwhip side-by-side shotgun will not disappoint you.
