The Charles Daly 500 Coach delivers classic side-by-side performance in a compact 20-gauge platform designed for close-quarters effectiveness. This break-action shotgun combines traditional styling with modern manufacturing standards to create a reliable defensive and sporting firearm. The 20-inch barrels and pistol grip configuration optimize handling in tight spaces while maintaining the power advantage of 3-inch chamber capability.
What Makes This Different
Unlike standard hunting side-by-sides, the Coach model features a pistol grip stock that improves control during rapid target acquisition. The steel receiver construction provides superior durability compared to aluminum alternatives, while the 3-inch chamber compatibility allows shooters to utilize both standard 2¾-inch loads and high-power 3-inch shells. The fixed choke system eliminates the complexity of interchangeable tubes while delivering consistent patterns at defensive ranges.Key Features
