Yes, The "coach gun" I used to carry in the 1970s in downtown Houston was side-by-side 18.5" barrel, and shortened stock, but within the legal size requirements to not be required to have Federal papers. I carried with shells in the chambers, but "broke open" so no one could say "disorderly conduct" as easily, but It closed so smoothly, just a flick of the wrist if needed, and it was "good to go"Keith B wrote: I have heard people refer to a coach gun or even a HD shotgun as a 'sawed off shotgun'.

Never had to fire it, it LOOKED mean; though once in my other store on Airline Drive, I did have to display it once inside my store, didn't even need to point or aim it, kept muzzle pointed in a safe direction...and the "desire to fight" just left the guy who was a threat. He put away his knife he was taking out, and exited my store.
Third store I had on Telephone Road, I never had to display it, but had it "at the ready, under the counter, with my hand on it," a few times.
