treeratcontrol Posted June 2, 2016 Report Share Posted June 2, 2016 Anyone used / own a folding shotgun, particularly in 12 guage as I am wondering if it would be worth picking one up to carry in pick-up or tractor cab for impromptu pest control around lamb feeders on the farm.

islandgun Posted June 3, 2016 Report Share Posted June 3, 2016 Ive managed to collect a 12, 20,410 C&H folders the 12 is beautifully balanced, and perhaps interestingly the 20 weighs in at 3lb 8oz which is a few oz lighter than the 410 , i load my own light loads Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exudate Posted June 3, 2016 Report Share Posted June 3, 2016 I have a Yildiz TK36 folding shotgun in .410. Bought it for my daughter to shoot clays with when she was little, but I've since discovered the pleasure of going for a casual wander about my permission with it. Works well on squirrels and rabbits. I tend to use it like a sub-12 air rifle, and stalk well within range of static bunnies before sitting them on the bead and taking the shot. Good fun when there aren't many pigeons around! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
treeratcontrol Posted June 4, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 4, 2016 Thanks all, I did wonder if making a gun fold would make it so unbalanced it was unpleasant to shoot but appears from your comments that once loaded they are just like any other, and just as effective if the person using it is up to the job.
