dover0020 Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 I'm not sure where to post this but I'm looking for a semi auto 20 gauge in a youth size. It is acually for my wife but she is only 5 feet tall. I am planning on taking her to shoot sporting clays but I don't want to pay the price for an over under. Thanks for the help.

Kevin G. Posted March 30, 2010 Share Posted March 30, 2010 Are you looking for suggestions on available models or are you posting this as a Want to buy (WTB) ? All your usual suspects make an autoloader in a youth or compact model. I would first consider the Browning Silver and Beretta 391. They are both excellent guns and will offer softer recoil than an inertia operated gun like a Benelli or Franchi. How it fits her is probably more important though. Th classifieds might be a better place if you are searching for a used gun to buy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
High Lord Gomer Posted March 31, 2010 Share Posted March 31, 2010 I just picked up a youth model 20 gauge 11-87 for me 12 year old. He says it kicks much less than his 870 20 gauge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got my wife a Charles Daly Youth model CDGK 3200 with the 22" barrel in 20ga and it's pretty darned nice. It's only 5 3/8lbs empty, so she can handle it. Keep in mind that many 20s kick harder, or have a sharper impulse than a 12 loaded to the same general ballpark of shot weight etc. If you can find a light, youth 12ga and get light loads, it'll often be more comfortable.
