news Hey, I have a gun. You don't want to break into my place in the
middle of the night. I have a Remingten 20 guage youth model. I
don't think I would be able to take more than one shot, since it
would like to knock me on my butt. My granddad got it for me a
couple of years ago.

"Youth Model," funny. Did it come with a bible?

? You never heard of that? It's for women or smaller people. Look it up.

You really should go shoot it and get used to the proper way to hold
it. It will NOT knock you on your butt.
We had lots of ladies on the skeet league I was on and they all shot
12 gauge.
Skeet is an excellent shooting sport if you have a facility nearby and
they usually have certified instructors there who will teach you
everything you need to know about safe shooting and the game in
general.
I heard that a pump has really bad recoil whereas a semi-auto is
relatively civilized. Why do cops prefer pumps?

More dependable.
