    The barrels are WAY too long, and there's WAY too much stock on it, but other than that, it's a fine looking piece.

    I agree with leaving the stock on, shot a friends last week with just target loads and it's got a nice kick. Or you could just shoot it from the hip...

    Very nice!!!!!!!!


    Back when Accokeek Sports was in business, they had a Rossi Coach Gun (12 ga) w/ modified-Full chokes, for $220.00.

    That was back when I didn't have two nickels to rub together.
    I still kick myself in the arse for not buying that scattergun!!!!
    Campbell's Tomato Soup was only 23¢ a can, then, too. I coulda eaten soup everyday for a couple of months, and paid for the shotgun.

    So, what will this thing be used for? Surely you don't own a stage coach.

    To fill a hole in the collection . And because they are fun to shoot :thumbsup:


    Did you pick that up at DSC? Saw one like it up there a few Weeks ago.

    Yes sir thats the one . Dad got it for me for my Bday :D

    Everybody should own a coach gun. The original intimidator. You got a nice looking one.

    :thumbsup:

    I had one a long time ago and have shot plenty of them . Im not really worried about the recoil , shoulder it right and pull it in tight its no that bad .

    Very nice!!!!!!!!

    That is awesome, the old Rossi Overlands were highly underated and much better than the current Norinco and other chinese guns being imported now.

    I was realy surprised with it myself . It locks up tight fit and finish was much better then I expected . It also has a bar lock . From the reading Ive been doing they are getting hard to come by as all the cowboy action shooters like them and buy them up .
