mad1 Posted April 22, 2012 Report Share Posted April 22, 2012 evening all A bit of a strange one but worth a go ... Is there any one with a 28g o/u that I could let my son try before I get him one as he is coming of a 410 single he is a bit apprehensive about going to a " bigger " gun If you wanted we could go to a clay club and in return I would buy you a round of clays etc if need be . Many thanks for reading this reg m1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhyspigeon67 Posted April 22, 2012 Report Share Posted April 22, 2012 could he not just use a 20guage with a 21gram load? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bakerboy Posted April 22, 2012 Report Share Posted April 22, 2012 could he not just use a 20guage with a 21gram load? I have seen the lad and a 20g would be too heavy for him. He is a really good shot and I think that to step up slowly will only help the lad develop his shooting. A 20g gun is a heavy bit of kit for a 9 year old, as I have found with my 9 year old grandson, who now uses a 28g very well. Gently Gently get there nicely. I would be happy to lend a single barrel 28g if you are stuck, I am sure there is a way to get it to you for a long term trial. I am in Sutton in Ashfield on the 19th/20th is there someone in the area that can help mad1 out if necessary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mad1 Posted April 22, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2012 Wow thank you for that He already has a 20g but it's still a bit too heavy And as Bakerboy has said he is a good shot and would put many a adult to shame so I would rather let him come up through the calibres and find his own feet so to speak Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirty Harry Posted April 22, 2012 Report Share Posted April 22, 2012 I have one but you would have to come down to Gloucestershire to use it. Let me know if you want to. I have clay traps here on the farm. Harry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
