One of those "school me" posts. Let's see whether I can do this without writing War & Peace.
Considering:
Niche:
What I (probably) don't require:
Why not 12-gauge?
So ... what thinkest CFF? Suggestions or thoughts (get a CZ, yes, I know! )
Considering:
- A break action 20-gauge (probably single shot). Btw, the for the specific model I am considering, the 12-g and 20-g list as essentially the "same" weight.
Niche:
- acclimate to a shotgun (don't have one) - learn how to hit what I'm aiming at.
- simple mechanism s.t. if SHTF less concern about the potential "how do I fix this?" question.
- potential hunting ability.
What I (probably) don't require:
- self-defense (other things for that).
- clays (nothing against it, just never have).
- competition (nothing against it, just never have).
Why not 12-gauge?
- I'm not exactly a big guy (I might be bigger than granny on Beverly Hillbillies) and am approaching 60. Figure I can buy a lot of 20-g shells vs. 12-g compared to the expense of shoulder surgery. But am I exaggerating ... ?
So ... what thinkest CFF? Suggestions or thoughts (get a CZ, yes, I know! )
