    Franchi, SX4, Weatherby, Mossberg

    I haven't bought anything yet. I have been doing a ton of researching and then I will try and take my son somewhere he can shoulder them. I would love for him to be able to shoot a couple of them before making the purchase. I really appreciate the comments from everyone here to help me decide.

    Sleep pads

    I have used a Thermarest Neoair for a long time. I switched and let my wife use it and I slept on her sleeping pad with a much lower R Value, and yes it is legit, I froze on her pad and promptly shelled out the money to get her a Thermarest Neoair as well. They are well worth the money in my...

    Thanks everybody. I have done more research trying to decide on the right gun for my kid than I ever have when looking at a gun for myself. :)

    Franchi, SX4, Weatherby, Mossberg

    Hello amigos, after hearing recommendations from all of you for shotguns for a 9 year old kid, I am currently looking at these guns in particular. Do any of you own a Franchi Affinity 3, Winchester SX4, Weatherby SA-08, or Mossberg SA-20? If so how do you like it? Does it reliably cycle light...

    Kid shotgun recommendations

    I appreciate all the responses so far. It is a fantastic journey to be starting out with my son! I should add that I have about a $1000 budget. I started with a single shot 20 gauge and I still remember when I pulled the trigger the first time and it about broke my teeth out :) I have thought...

    Kid shotgun recommendations

    I know this has been discussed before, but there are also new advances in guns and ammo all the time so I am going to post this. My son is 9 years old and weighs 60 pounds. He shoots a 22 and 223 well, but I haven't put a shotgun in his hands yet. We mainly hunt pheasants and chuckars. Sometimes...

    270 wsm vs 6.5 CM

    I have both and I love both of them. I haven't shot my 270wsm much in the last five years since I've had the cm because the cm is so much fun to shoot. I have killed elk, deer, sheep, goats, etc. with my cm and it's worked great, but there are times I miss packing my wsm like when there are...
