Bainbridge, Georgia– December 2023 – Street Howitzer. Scattergun. Coach gun. All of these are synonymous with the iconic shotgun of the Old West: the 12-gauge side-by-side. Now, you can experience what it would have felt like to fire two barrels of buckshot with the new Heritage Badlander.

Based on the legendary western side-by-side, the new Badlander features two 18.5-inch barrels with a more modern, corrosion-resistant black oxide coating, while retaining the simplicity and durability of the old-school design. Between the barrels is a sturdy brass bead sight, clearly visible with your cheek nestled on the Turkish walnut wood stock.
The tang-mounted two-position safety sits within easy reach of most shooters’ thumbs, and the twin triggers mean you can really “give ‘em both barrels” with the new Badlander. The cylinder bore preserves the authentic intent of the shotgun, making it perfect for home defense, cowboy action shooting, or whatever else you might need a side-by-side 12-gauge for.
