Hi!
  I have a pioneer arms coach gun. What time period would it represent? Greener.
                                                    Thanks, Molasses Mike

I'd say from the mid 1870's on would be fair ... though the Pioneer was not exact replica , it was a very nice product...
no longer made and was gasp-ly pricey @ $1100- $1300  
To have one is enviable, though parts will be hard to find, the Polish manufacturer, is doing Military arms contracts.
 
when planets align...do the deal !

Hello MM.  I have a PA Greener as well.  IMO, very, very nice guns.  I replaced the hammer springs and polished the chambers just a bit to make mine competition ready.  My only complaint is the hardwood stock.  I tried to find one with a walnut stock, and to buy a replacement walnut stock from PA but no luck.  Seems to me a gun that nice (and expensive) deserves better than a hardwood stock.

I shot mine about a year and then discovered a Win. '87, so mine is now a safe queen, but I still do admire it.  That Greener system built with the percision of the PA guns is to be admired.  If I were still shooting it, I would probably have it restocked with nice wood.

Enjoy your!!

      Thanks for the information! It's too nice to bang around but great to use in general. I keep it near by at night, along with something else.
      Thanks again for the come back, M.M.
