For a coach gun, I really prefer the double hammer guns as you can leave them loaded forever with no spring tension.In my search for a Coach Gun, I settled on this exposed hammer Chinese deal.
I put a good recoil pad on it, an ammo card, sling, and called it good.
I did love the old school exposed hammers, but it lacked the one thing I wanted most... auto-ejectors.
Ended up selling it, and continued my search for a Coach Gun with Auto-Ejectors.
Alas, such a unicorn was not to be found.
What I did find, however, was a Kawaguchiya Firearms Co LTD Tokyo, Hibiki Model M.
This was a bird hunting gun with 28" long barrels, but my gunsmith could fix that.
He did, and he also added the recoil pad my aging shoulder needs so desperately.
I added the on gun ammo (of course) and I finally have myself the Coach Gun I've always wanted.
This one... even throws the empties out for me when I crack it open.
Not sure I'll keep the strap on velcro sleeve I added. I may end up putting velcro for the ammo card directly on the stock as I did for the old gun, but overall I like it more. A lot more. It's lighter too. Swings fast. I bet it was a great bird gun... lol.
