How to Reset the Internal Hammers on Your Stoeger Shotgun / Coach Gun

  • On today’s installment of SaintAndrewTV’s adventures, we will be resetting the internals hammers on our Stoeger Coach Gun.
    The Coach Gun, as the name suggests, was used as the weapon of the passenger on, you guessed it, the stagecoach while transporting whatever cargo they may have. The 12 gauge, shortened barreled shotgun was used for it’s wider pellet spread so it had the ability to hit multiple assailants with With one fell swoop.
    Now cleaning it is a whole other animal. Well, putting back together after cleaning it would be more accurate. The internal hammers have to be set in a certain way before reassembling the barrel to the frame and stock. So that’s what I’m going to do.
    Hope you all learned something today because I definitely had to look this one up.

    Don’t pull the triggers when it’s disassembled! Is the key! It will go together relatively easy, plus I believe it’s not recommended by the manufacturer!

      Thank you, Sir. You know, there is NOTHING in the owner's manual that even comes close to addressing this issue. When I first got my Stoeger, I actually phoned Stoeger Arms because I could not reassemble it. Same issue that you had. They told me "The hammers need to be reset". And guess what they told me to do? Ready? They told me to get on RUclips and watch your video! So Stoeger is actually using your video as instructions to supplement their owner's manual, and is recommending your video to new users, like me. Bottom line? Stoeger is not printing anything about this issue, but using your video as a supplement instruction! You are famous, and deserve a finder's fee from Stoeger for helping them out!

    • @SaintAndrewTV

      I believe the safety was off when I did this and when you reset them, the safety will reset when reassembling the barrel to the stock

    You don't have to do that as long as you don't pull the triggers before you take it apart but if you take it a part and accidently pull the triggers or the triggers are pulled before you take it apart then you have to do this. MY advice is make sure the triggers are not pulled before you take it a part and once its a part don't pull the triggers and you wont have to do this.

    • @SaintAndrewTV
      @SaintAndrewTV  2 года назад +2

      Right, but when I take it apart I make sure that the gun isn’t hot. But yes, this would work!

      @@SaintAndrewTV It is better to have it cocked and ready to go, incase a break in happens while at home, every second counts. Plus that's not really good to have to do that to your gun often, chance the pins or something else could get damaged, if you were to slip or something.

Now i realize it has to be in the cocked position to reassemble. Whew I was freaking out. Thanks for your tip though, it will help out next time. I could get the barrels on by moving the release lever, but couldn’t get the hand guard on!😢

    Just purchased the Stoeger 20GA Coach gun. During the initial cleaning I wanted to take the pressure off the hammers springs so I pulled both triggers while covering the pin ports with a gun cloth. Both pins protuding so I was successful. Then came the dilemma. A quick search brought me to you. Thanks for the lowdown on resetting the hammers. They are reset and I now know more about my wife's new double barrell.

    Why would you pull the triggers when the gun is disassembled that's all on you there's never a point in time that you will ever have to do this unless you pull the triggers when the gun is disassembled I believe you were playing with your gun while it was disassembled and you didn't know how to reset the Hammers

    • @SaintAndrewTV
      @SaintAndrewTV  Год назад

      The hammers reset when you close the gun, so they’re live. Flip the safety and the triggers can be pulled and the hammers will come up. Now I don’t know about you, but I don’t store or clean my guns will live triggers, even when unloaded. It creates bad habits and dangerous situations. That’s why you fire them, then store it or, in my case, clean it. That’s why you need to reset the hammers.

    • @jesseheilman
