Outlaws

True enough, I suppose the longest shot inside my house is 15y, at least one barrel should hit. At least if I took your lead, and added a second bead, for the "off-side" barrel, If I had kept it, I certainly would have done so.
 
I trust mine with a bear I don't necessarily trust the shooter though :D I keep mine loaded in the bush, 1 barrel has shot the other a slug.
 
The Outlaw is a cool design, however I have seen Khyber Pass copies with better quality control. Brittle wood, flimsy springs, next time I will save my $$$ for a Stoeger Coach or chop a SxS of slightly higher quality.

You can't chop one down to 12.5 inches. For that you need factory made.
 
Can we get Stoegers with 12 inch barrels? That would be too awesome

Stoegers are great little guns, but i do love the whole exposed hammer thing. Means you can have it loaded while hiking without relying on a safety. If you want a short hunting gun go get a stoeger coach or the like and be happy, but for the purposes a 12 inch gun would be of any use for, having the hammers is kind of nice.

I have to agree with you here, plus they just look so damn cool and old school.
 
I would not walk around the bush with a loaded gun with exposed hammers. Unless you have a strap to keep the hammers down. One wierd snag and the hammer may strike jus hard enough to set it off.

They still have proper modern safeties. They won't go off just from a 'snag' unless the snag happens to pull the hammers back and then simultaneously pull the trigger at the right moment :) That'd be quite a snag.

Ahh .. well that's my fault then for not being clear in the original post.

I should have said "means you can have the outlaw loaded and safely carry it uncocked and able to be readied to be fired quickly whereas with a stoager if you wanted to carry it loaded you'd pretty much have to rely on the shotgun's safety to prevent the gun from discharging". I didn't mean the outlaw wouldn't still have safeties in place to prevent the hammers from hitting the firing pins without being cocked.

I can see how you could have read it differently, as is always the case after someone points it out :)

Yep like that it's perfectly fine. That's how I carry mine, uncocked safety on but chambers loaded.

its only practical for one thing. home defence. with the outlaw you dont get a slide to rack to give a burglar warning though unfortunetly.

You've obviously never wnated to have a firearm with you on a hike before.


Anyone ever weigh this thing? I'd like to know how it compares to my DA Grizzly 12.5" tube fed.
 
I'll grab one for sure - any update on the ETA CanAm? "spring" is closing fast and you know that's rustler season on the ranch.. :)
