Well bad news. He backed out on me unfortunately. He is trying to find me either a 20 or sweet 16 since he reniged on me.
You do realize you can load only 1 shell into that auto effectively making it a single shot right? Plus most auto's will have less recoil than a crack barrel. To me it makes way more sense to buy the auto and use it as a single shot until they are accustomed to how to handle a firearm safely

My reason for a manual cocking action is that children have a tendency to turn around after a shot is fired and the barrel usually swings around with them. With an automatic, there will be a live round in the chamber. I would say hold off on the auto-loaders until they have some experience proving they operate a firearm safely

Too bad on missign the A5 - my Grandfather has several and I always have loved those guns. I domnt have one myself.
I still need to find the perfect heirloom shotgun for my little guy - he just turned 4.
I dont know what I am looking for, jsut that I want it to be a nice wood stock and soemthing he can pass down to kids / grandkids of his own some day.
I have a Mossburg 500 20ga for him to learn with already, but I'm still looking for something special.
Like has been mentioned. A life time Liscense is a great goft for a young child. I got his right before he turned two. The price goes up at 2 yrs old, again at I think 12 and then is full price at 16. Before 2yrs old it was I think $250 for the combo. Full price right now is $700 and it will only go up as time passes.
