Schwartz & Feres Side by Side 12 GA

The Schwartz & Feres Side-by-Side 12 GA is a classic-style double-barrel shotgun built in the traditional “side-by-side” layout, where the two barrels sit next to each other rather than one on top of the other. It’s chambered in 12 gauge, so it’s capable of handling common hunting and sporting loads.

Overall, it has that old-school, break-action feel—simple, mechanical, and straightforward to operate. You open it by breaking the action, load two shells directly into the chambers, and then close it back up. It’s the kind of shotgun that tends to appeal to hunters or collectors who like traditional craftsmanship and a more vintage shooting experience rather than modern tactical designs.

Depending on the exact model and condition, these types of guns are often valued more for their classic styling and feel than for high-volume shooting or modern features.
