Thanks for all the advise. My son is a teenager now and I may as well get used to him making up his own mind about things.

He bought a Browning A-5 a couple weeks back. It is a Belgian made 2 3/4" that is in good to very good condition, $265.

We took it out the first night home and shot some clays, he hit 8 of 10 and we were very pleased. Next day we went rabbit hunting and he made a couple very good running shots. He's in love with the thing and I'm happy for him.

It's heavy, kicks hard and can't shoot steel. But it's what he wants and he shoots it well and can use it for upland game and trap shooting and couldn't be happier.
