Stoeger Double Defense Over Under 12 Gauge Matte Black Shotgun

The Stoeger Double Defense is a compact 12 Gauge over-under shotgun designed for home defense and other close-quarters applications. Its traditional break-action design provides simple operation, while the two 20-inch barrels deliver a two-round capacity and fixed improved cylinder chokes. The shotgun accepts 2 3/4-inch and 3-inch shells and uses a fast single trigger with a tang-mounted automatic safety. A green fiber-optic front sight supports quick target acquisition, while two Picatinny rail mounts accommodate compatible accessories. Matte-finished metalwork and a matte black synthetic stock and forearm provide a durable, low-reflection configuration.
