RE: Guns for Christmas
I got my oldest son a new Rem. 870 pump 20.ga. youth model shotgun. I was surprised though that it is a little too big for him. It looked like it would fit him in the store, but I guess not. He's pretty big for his age and he's ten years old. The gun is just bigger than it looks.
He's a really good shot, so he'd be fine on a rest, but standing is a definite problem for now. Guess he'll just have to grow into it.
