Son is 9 yrs old & on the smallish size (55 lbs). Looking for a youth gun to do it all.
Was thinking maybe a 20 gauge- perhaps with different barrels?
Deer hunting (less than 100 yrd shots).
Dove hunting / skeet shooting
Turkey hunting
They have a skeet shooting team that he can join in a couple years at school, so thinking in advance about that. Most of the kids use 20 gauge.
Price not really a factor- want to get him something nice & good quality that he will have for a long time.
Maybe a Benelli M2 that I could put a red dot sight on for deer/turkey & take it off for dove/skeet. I'm assuming they make a youth stock for the M2?
Any of the rifle/shotgun combo with changeable barrels worth looking at or to stay away from?
Open to suggestions- thanks.
