The Citadel Coach side-by-side 12 gauge is a short double-barrel shotgun with blued 18-inch barrels and a Turkish walnut stock (brand part no. CITSBS1218). Citadel chambers it for 3-inch shells and supplies five chokes, so the patterns can be matched to the load and the job. A barrel selector and extractors round out the action. Its short barrels make it a handy choice for home defense, ranch use and cowboy-style shooting, and the walnut stock keeps the classic look. It is part of the Citadel lineup of side-by-side shotguns.
