I’m putting together a pair of ‘traveling guns’ - mostly for having with me in motel/hotel rooms (gave up camping years ago:), and accessible in my truck (no camper top, so they’ll be in the cab with me).
I am VERY pleased with my handgun - a S&W model 22-4 .45 acp/45AR revolver. I shoot it well, can use full moon clips and speed loaders really well, and it will fly under 10 round legislation anywhere. And it doesn’t “look tactical” - kind of a retro, geezer gun :)

What I’m looking for now is a ‘long gun’, which I’ve narrowed down to a lever action or break action shotgun - o/u or s/s. The Stoeger Coach gun is a good possibility, IF it is reliable. I’ve heard mixed reports, with the con side being things like soft steel, malfunctioning single triggers (which is why I would prefer doubles), parts breakage, etc., etc.

Just looking for feedback from knowledgeable/experienced shooters, and additional suggestions. TIA
