Riding shotgun refers to the practice of sitting alongside the driver in a moving vehicle. The expression riding shotgun was apparently not used in the days of actual stagecoach travel. At that time, the position next to the driver was said to be occupied by an express messenger or sometimes colloquially a shotgun messenger . The phrase riding shotgun not found before 1905 was applied later to print and especially film depiction of stagecoach es and wagons in the Old West in danger of being robbed or attacked by bandits. A special armed employee of the express service using the stage for transportation of bullion or cash would sit beside the driver, carrying a short shotgun or occasionally rifle , to provide an armed response in case of threat to the cargo, which was usually a strongbox. Absence of an armed person in that position often signaled that the stage was not carrying a strongbox, but only passengers. ref cite web url http www.phrases.org.uk meanings riding shotgun.html title Riding shotgun work phrases.org.uk accessdate 1 May 2010 ref More recently, the term has been applied to a game, typically played by groups ... the right to ride shotgun by calling out shotgun first.

  1. Shotgun messenger

    In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, a shotgun messenger was a private express messenger and guard, especially on a stagecoach but also on a train , in charge of overseeing and guarding a valuable private shipment, such as particularly the contents of a strongbox on a stagecoach or safe on a train . The express messenger for stagecoaches typically rode in a seat on top of the coach, on the left next to the driver who typically sat on the right side, operating the wheel brake with right arm . In the American Old West Old West of the 1880s, if a stagecoach had only a driver and no Wells Fargo messenger, this meant the coach carried no strongbox, and was thus a less interesting target for road agents bandits . Wells Fargo Co. express messengers typically carried a short or Sawed off shotgun sawed off 12 or 10 Gauge bore diameter gauge double barrelled shotgun , loaded with Lead shot buckshot . This was a most effective weapon in use against pursuing riders. Such weapons were sometimes referred to as messenger shotguns or, more commonly, coach gun s a name still used today . To some extent these weapons also carried over to use by private guards in trains with strongboxes or safes, where they were again effective.

  1. Shotgun Man

    Shotgun Man was an assassin and mass murderer in Chicago, Illinois in the 1910s, to whom murders of Black Hand blackmail Black Hand extortionists were attributed. Most notably, Shotgun Man killed 15 Italian immigrants between January 1 March 26, 1911 between Oak Street Chicago Oak Street and Milton Street now Cleveland Street of Chicago s Little Italy, Chicago Little Italy known as Death Corner . In March 1911, he reportedly murdered four people within a 72 hour period, also at the intersection of Oak and Milton. Although witnessed by dozens of bystanders, neither the Chicago police nor the Whitechapel Society were able to identify the murderer. However, he was said to be well known throughout the Italian community and, with the political influence of the Black Hand, residents may have been hesitant to turn in the assassin. Although the fate of Shotgun Man is unknown, he seems to have disappeared from Little Italy shortly before Prohibition , as extortion operations of the Black Hand all but faded away by the end of the decade.
