Hope this is the right place to post this!
I have seen shotguns carried (on Horseback) across the pommel but have never seen anyone shove a shotgun into a regular rifle scabbard.
Is is not Kosher to do so?
I am sure that there were horsemen who favored the Peppergun and would use one in liew of a rifle so shy don't you see a shotgun scabbard in Movies and documenteries> Even CAS shooters don't carry shotguns on Horseback, it's always a rifle.]
I figgure a horseman outfitted with a big bore revolver and a scattergun loaded with buckshot could defend himself pretty well within 100 yards...
