Its about the only thing I know of that makes marsh hen hunting challenging... but something tells me there is a serious shortage of marsh hens in Colorodo.

Its useful for missing doves as well. Does make a good squirrel/rabbit gun... but hell the shells cost $12 a box.

Its not overwhelmingly great for a kid to get started on either. They are good for shooting at a can or paper target to gain confidence, but by and large you'll be 10xs as successfull with a 20 gauge.
