Wookie Posted April 16, 2007 Report Share Posted April 16, 2007 That is so sweet of you! My GF gave me a large wadge of cash specifically for buying a shottie. That's one of the reasons I know she's the one for me... She like shooting and told me to get back to playing poker the other night so that I could win enough money to make us rich. Nice choice of shotgun by the way. Really like the look of the harrier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's one of the reasons I know she's the one for me... She like shooting and told me to get back to playing poker the other night so that I could win enough money to make us rich. GOOD LUCK! That is so sweet of you! Nice choice of shotgun by the way. Really like the look of the harrier. It's the gun that fitted her best and was light enough for her. There's a bit too much play in the trigger for my liking and the build quality is nowhere near my Beretta's, but for £540 out the box, with a 3 year warranty, it a really good first gun. I took it out on Sunday and with RC t20 low noise 24g 7.5's it smashes clay as well as my 12g. A bit light for me though, had to consentrate hard not to over do, the swing through. But the best part is, the more days that we can go shooting = the more days that I can go shooting! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wookie Posted April 16, 2007 Report Share Posted April 16, 2007 What's the stock like on it? The GF can't handle my Laurona very well as it is _way_ too long in the stock for her and that makes the recoil really hard to handle. A smaller gun shooting lighter loads might make it a lot easier on her. Can you post pics up of it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LEFTY478 Posted April 16, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2007 Wookie, the stock/pull is about the same as my 686, around 14.5" and it's no problem for my 5'3" wife. I'll try to load a photo tonight. Lefty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
