I'm looking for a 20g semi auto youth for my son who's ready to move up from a 410, already tried a single barrel 20g which fell through due to problems with the gun so going down the semi auto route to get the best of both worlds 2 shots for the clays and 3 for been out in the hide but still having only 1 barrel for weight as he's only 9. So something not expensive like a escort or armsan would be ideal preferably clean, would rfd for the right gun.

i had probs straight out of the box with my sons 20g escort semi, went back twice for repair and came back still jamming..would never buy one again... look for a light weight o/under, thats what i did..

That was the plan but the o/u are  a little heavy for him to move quickly enough he's only 9.

I have a Webley and Scott 820 with a shortened stock gathering dust in the cabinet. It's not done very much work at all (bought for my wife who has now moved up to 12 gauge). Of what had gone through it, the only shells it didn't like were Eley CTs (though Eley seem to to change their recipe every 5 minutes).

If you are interested we can come to some arrangement (code for I don't know how much exactly but know it isn't worth much).
