Uncle Albert Posted May 24, 2013 Report Share Posted May 24, 2013 Your doing the right thing. Try as many as you can but when you make your decision on make then go to a reputable gun shop and check fit. One of the most important things to get right. Once you have your gun then get some lessons. It will save you money in the long run. You won't be blasting away at clays and missing everything. I sometimes think it should be compulsory to have lessons for newbies, after all you cannot put your car on the road by yourself without passing your test. Learning how to shoot will also give you a better chance to hit live prey when you eventually get on to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KaRnAgE Posted May 29, 2013 Report Share Posted May 29, 2013 I'm quite new to all this as well. I actually purchased a new Hatsan Under and Over in wood. It has an adjustable stock for length so it lets you taylor it to fit nicely. They also do a synthetic version, that has an adjustable comb too. I bought mine adjusted it until I was happy, it came with 5 chokes, steel proofed and because you can adjust it, it is pretty saleable as a second hand gun, as it'll fit many others. I love mine and wont be selling it. It is definitely not the most fancy gun you can get, but very functional. There are a lot of Hatsan Haters out there, but I have put around 3500 cartridges through it this year and not had one single problem. You will have change from your £800 too, shoot it for a year and lose £75 if you sell it on next year. Goodluck in finding the right one for you.
