A nice side by side if one is able/inclined to do a lot of tinkering on the guts of it.

Was able to examine 3 of the identical coach guns to see which one I was going to purchase. Stock figure varied greatly; I chose the one with the prettiest stock.
It shot fine, but the action was very rough. Not the trigger pull, but opening, closing & extracting. The front bead was installed off-center.
While detail-stripping, I found a lot of burrs, metal chips and crude assembling techniques.
After stoning, filing, dremmeling, and cutting back the action spring, this is a very nice and smooth running shotgun. I also removed the automatic feature of the safety, so it'll work only manually now. A lot of deburring was needed on the extractor too.
Right now the coach gun is at the gunsmith, having the front sight ground off and re-tapped to center.
If you're willing to do a lot of garage gunsmithing this dog can be made into a throughbred. If it came from the factory not so "crude" it would get a 9 or 10 rating.

Not much, just your basic coach gun: Double triggers, internal hammers, mod & imp cylinder barrels, no screw-in chokes, plastic buttplate, tang safety, hard plastic buttplate.
