I'm looking for a good solid shot gun for a girl. I would like to go with semi auto to reduce recoil but it needs to be light as well. Budget area around $700 or so. Any suggestions?
On another board I saw what I think is a great idea for a growing shooter. It is the CZ 712 ALS. It is a gas actuated autoloader. The ALS stands for adjustable length stock. Essentially a telescoping stock that adjusts in four increments from 12" when the youth is smaller to 14" as the child ages and grows. The comb also adjusts up in three increments as needed to fit the stock to the growing child. Also seems to be a great gun for the small woman who needs a fitted stock out of the norm. Google the gun and there is even a Tom Knapp video that shows the gun and how it adjusts. I actually like the look of the gun and the price is right at MSRP of $579. I think it is a great idea and a little cheaper than the CZ 720 ALS that another member posted.
Early high school graduation present. Browning Citori White Lightning in 16ga. Low recoil, easy to carry, neat looking, will hold its value, and it will drive her guy friends crazy. The extra grand will seem like chicken feed when you start planning her wedding. At least this way you will only have to buy one gun, and you will be the coolest dad in town.
