OutdoorHub 01.15.14
Stoeger has taken the “tried-and-true” Side-by-Side (SxS) design and added practical up-to-date features to make it the ideal firearm for home defense. The dependable Double Defense is now offered in a synthetic configuration, making it even more rugged and reliable.
The Stoeger Synthetic Double Defense SxS is a no-nonsense shotgun designed with home protection in mind. Combining ultra-reliable box-lock, break-action technology with a short, efficient shotgun makes this the firearm for defense. It’s easy to load and quick to deploy and the slim fore-end provide a positive grip for total control of the gun at all times.
The Synthetic Double Defense SxS is chambered for 2 ¾- and 3-inch shells in 12 gauge. The tactical-length 20-inch barrels feature fixed, improved cylinder chokes for the most effective patterns at close range. The single-trigger enables quick shooting and the tang-mounted automatic safety is conveniently located, making the Double Defense safe and easy to use.
The Double Defense SxS is outfitted with a vent rib and a green, fiber-optic front sight. The gun comes standard with one factory-installed, forward-mounted Picatinny rails for attaching targeting lasers or tactical lights, and a second Picatinny rail is supplied that can be fitted to the rear top of the barrels.
All metal surfaces are finished in matte black and come complete with non-reflective synthetic stock and fore-end. Stoeger’s new Double Defense SxS shotgun is the perfect defensive firearm that’s rugged, reliable and economically priced.
