Heritage Manufacturing Badlander 20 Gauge 18.5 Inch 2 Round Nickel Finish

The Heritage Badlander Break Open Shotgun 20ga carries the Badlander series' blend of old-west styling and practical modern use, introduced in December 2023 and now offered in a corrosion-resistant nickel finish that makes a statement on the range, in the blind, or on the ranch. With an 18.5-inch cylinder bore barrel, side-by-side break-open action and twin triggers, this two-round 20 gauge delivers fast follow-up shots, intuitive pointability and a tactile shooting experience suited to upland bird hunting, close-range home defense and cowboy action shooting. Turkish walnut furniture and a sturdy brass bead sight preserve the classic silhouette while the alloy steel frame and nickel plating resist weather and handling wear, and the tang-mounted two-position slide safety gives straightforward control under stress. At 34.85 inches overall and weighing roughly 102.4 ounces unloaded, the Badlander balances swing and stability for clays or flushing birds, and the 3" chambering accepts a range of 20ga loads for flexibility in practice and field use. Note that this model requires FFL transfer; the Badlander model in nickel is aimed at shooters who want a historically styled side-by-side that performs in real-world sporting and defensive roles.
