[QUOTE="fly2cast, post: 236251, member: 656"] If you're buying a .410 for yourself and have other guns to hunt with, sounds like fun. But if it's your only shotgun, I wouldn't mess with it. If anybody is planning on buying their kid a shotgun, I think I would go with a 12 gauge right off the bat. I bought my oldest son a 20 gauge semi-auto when he was 12. It was real light and I thought since he was young he should have a lighter gun. He did OK with it. My other son turned 11 this year and he jumped right in with a heavy 12 gauge pump. He did excellent with it. What I'm trying to say is that many kids can handle a full size 12 gauge. 8 years old might be too young for a full size shotgun but I think many 10, 11, and 12 year olds can handle them. The good think about a heavier gun is that they kick less. [/QUOTE]
