    Sons shotgun

    Finally ordered a youth size Akkar 28g pump action for my son, black synthetic 22" barrel.

    Great stuff, he'll be excited I bet! How old is he?

    My first gun was given to me when I was old enough to have my license, a Belgium Browning C grade with 30" barrels, used my of my strength and effort to hold the bugger up. But I have grown into it and cant shoot with anything else near as well.

    Do wish I could have started with something smaller though.

    Brilliant UU. Encouraging young folk is bloody important stuff. Hats off to you.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    I got my Grandson a .410 kahn single barrel & a duckshooting licence this year & have taken him out the last 2 Saturdays & he loves it but hasn't got any ducks yet (he is 8) so I took him to a sporting clays shoot for some practice & he was disappointed he didn't hit anything so I had a go & its got bloody tight chokes. Now this week I have got .410 gaugemate inserts so he can shoot my side by side this weekend & have just got a Spanish u/o coming as needs double triggers due to .410 not setting second barrel then I can cut down the stock to fit him. Where we shoot ducks are 20-25m away so more open chokes are the go.
