Youth Shotgun
« on: November 09, 2009, 11:48:55 AM »
Anyone have any input on the 870 youth model? I like how it comes with LOP adjustment. I know, it's pink; but my daughter is 9 and wants to hunt w/me but she is still a little prissy. I figured I will meet in the middle and get her a pink one.

My son has one. (not the pink one) He likes it. It's a full 870 Express that will accept a longer barrel down the road. Also the full sized the furnature fits, so it's truly a shottie that will grow with the kid.

870's are great guns that are even better now for kids with that for-end.
To hunt and butcher an animal is to recognize that meat is not some abstract form of protein that springs into existence tightly wrapped in cellophane and styrofoam.

I got one for my girls for turkey hunting. My one daughter dumped one at 50 yds w/3" #5's, ultra full turkey choke, red dot site.
