My father in law uses a 20 gauge for ducks and geese and he outshoots everyone he hunts with.

With the wife wanting to search for deer, and me wanting to take her out looking for ducks/pheasants and such this year... is a 20 gauge worthwhile for ducks?

I've gotten her a pink plinkster .22 and a pink taurus .22 pistol, I think she'd enjoy the remmy 870 20 gauge ladies/youth in pink...

Or would I be better off grabbing her a 12 and painting it up myself?

(she's a little shy with, but can handle my 12 with stock buttpad without complaints)
20ga will be fine, I shot 107 ducks last year w/mine! Don't buy your wife a shotgun, let her pick it out. FWIW how ever, bright PINK is a no go for waterfowl hunting!

it's gonna be a patterned pink/black to break up the outline some.


she already has

and


and she like's em (yes they made fun of me at the gun shop when I got those gifts for her).

For the moment though her shotty is black

I'm still working on getting her a bit gun crazy... she's close but not quite there yet. She doesn't come from a gun family... family of vegans and such, hadn't fired a gun until I took her to the range a few years ago. So bear with me a little, gotta keep this fun and cute.
