Thinking about getting this gun for my wife to shoot skeet with. Anyone know if they are a quality gun?

I would look hard at a 20 over a .410, regardless of manufacturer. There are low recoil 20 gauge shells out there that will throw a much better pattern and help her break targets...

20>410

skeet with a 410 is a professional challenge not an entry level sport.

She's shot a .20 and says the recoil is a little too much over a long period of time. We shot a .410 and said the recoil wasn't bad. That's the only reason I'm lookin for a .410. But if you guys have recommendations for .20 I'll definitely listen.

I've shot a Yildiz many times. Only issue I had was shell ejection consistency. Little oil got it working again.

Do you currently have a 20? Are you in Baton Rouge? I have a few shells she could try...

Fiocchi makes a reduced recoil shell

and so does RST

Still considering getting a Yildiz 12ga semi-auto. Figured they wouldn't eject low brass real good though
