[QUOTE="svnmag, post: 414305, member: 330"] I don't believe. There's a big .410 "kick/fad" going on right now. Also; IMO the .410 is an "expert" shotgun. Not a big fan of a .410 for youth (even the new "turkey guns") and especially giving a kid a 20ga for supposed "reduced recoil": Look at rifles on various sites; the same model in .308 will weigh a bit less than a .22/250. (sorry--same example opposite problem--smaller gauge guns tend to weigh less thus negating any less felt recoil IMHO) I killed my first squirrel with a Savage/Stevens 20ga single bbl. It gave me a swollen jaw and a tender shoulder for two days: I thought it was cool. Dad's M12 16ga is as "brutal" as the Seven while his M37 12ga (even with a decent comb drop) is very tolerable. IMO kids should start with an airgun, .22 rifle and [B][I]12ga[/I][/B] with appropriate loads and sized guns. Bore doesn't necessarily equate to recoil IMO/E. IMHO a gun/ammo company would do well with some 28ga innovation: It's a neat little bitch yet not as sexy as a 16: Model 37[B][I] Win[/I][/B] pictured below: That is all: [ATTACH type="full" alt="1718941525257.png"]67895[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
