Brother to Brother, the passing of the little Rossi .410.

[Railroader]

With The Kid growing into my old Stevens 20 guage, it became time for Little Brother to inherit the little Rossi .410...



He shot up some soda bottles today, but he needs just a little more practice and hand strength to work the gun's action. I imagine he'll figger it out pretty quick..



First shotgunning lesson in the book...

Take your kids hunting and you don't have to hunt your kids! Great work!

We have the same little shotgun in the safe for the kids. It kicks me pretty hard but fits the kids better and isn't as bad on them.

I don't care to shoot the thing for your same reason. But they would shoot up truckload of shells, and never complain... ?

Some guns kick heavier folks more than lighter. A lighter person moves easier with the gun, a heavier person resists the recoil more.

The length of pull and shape of stock are better suited to the smaller frame.

Plus given a chance, most kids and their parents too find out with youth comes durability that does eventually fade.

Congrats to all three of you!

My first one was a REAL old school H&R. .410.
Long and heavy. They have always been quality.
Especially the old ones.

My Daddy and Uncle shared mine back in the lare 40's because there was not enough money for both of them to have one

Anyhooooo... My oldest nephew cut his teeth on it too. He's in college now, chasing girls, has bought a 12 with his own money.

I repo'd it. ?

That is a great story. Kids in the woods or on the range with dad, something very special indeed.
