It was last December that Heritage Manufacturing debuted their Badlander side-by-side, stagecoach shotgun in 12 Gauge for anyone who is nostalgic of the Old West, or simply is in love with stagecoach, shorty shotguns. Now, Heritage Manufacturing Company has announced new 20 Gauge and .410 Gauge Heritage Badlander side-by-side stagecoach shotguns to expand out that lineup.

By all visual appearances, the new 20 Gauge and .410 Gauge offerings look to be nearly identical to their 12 Gauge counterpart. At this time, there are no specifications or MSRPs listed on the Heritage Manufacturing Company website, but we assume that those will be soon on the way. A more detailed explanation of these new shotguns can be read below as presented by Heritage:
In the spirit of innovation and homage to the iconic firearms of the Old West, Heritage Manufacturing proudly introduces the latest evolution of the Heritage Badlander.
Once synonymous with the thunderous power of the 12-gauge side-by-side, the Badlander now expands its repertoire, offering enthusiasts the opportunity to wield the classic elegance and formidable performance in 20 gauge and .410 calibers.
Crafted with the same dedication to authenticity and durability, the new Badlander features two 18.5-inch barrels adorned with a modern, corrosion-resistant black oxide coating, while maintaining the timeless simplicity of its design. Nestled on fine walnut wood stock, the sturdy brass bead sight beckons, offering precision and confidence with every shot.
Embodying the spirit of the Old West, the tang-mounted two-position safety ensures swift accessibility, while the twin triggers invite shooters to unleash the full potential of this legendary firearm. Whether for home defense, cowboy action shooting, or simply to relive the frontier spirit, the Badlander stands ready, embodying the essence of the Wild West.
While we don’t know the precise price of the new 20 Gauge and .410 Gauge Heritage Badlander shotguns, we can use the 12 Gauge as a reference point, and the original shotgun still retails for $939.99. So, we would assume these smaller gauge shotguns will come in at a similar price point once more information becomes available.
