The best gun for a woman is...whatever she will enjoy shooting and is willing to carry. Be it a Colt Gold Cup, a Bersa Thunder, a S&W 629, an XD/Glock/M&P plastic fantastic, or even a Snubbie from Hell.

However, a Saiga .410 shotgun is pretty darned cool. :)

(wv = "Ableall". Yep, pretty much describes it.)

My work here is done...

Jay G said...

Heh. Glad to oblige. Shooting that was simply too much fun. Thanks MSJ!

I think I'd prefer a 20 gauge instead due to poor ballistics of
.410.

It is pretty damn cool though. As I was saying in the BB&G chat I may just have to pick one up in 20sometime. Something about not having a shotgun just feels wrong.

Carol liked the Saiga also.

Great gun. Kinda hard to carry concealed...

Nice :-)

The girls loved watching that video. :)

What gauge was that, Breda?

Mad Saint Jack said...

.410 gauge with a 15 round magazine and a red dot sight.

It is a good setup to give a first time shooter so that they have fun and want to come back for more.

I think shot placement is more important than caliber/gauge...

Mad Saint Jack,

How's the trigger slap on that one?

I'm ashamed to say that I've never fired a semiauto Saiga shotgun; I have fired a full-auto 20ga with an 8" or 10" barrel, and after three bursts I had a visible bruise on the pad of my trigger finger. :o

Tam-

Either it is not a problem or I haven't dumped enough rounds through it to notice. I've never noticed any pain shooting the gun (it hurts buying ammo).

I want to get it out to Iggy creek sometime and let you try it.

This is awesome. I've been looking recently for a good gun and ammo, but I haven't found anything that I can buy yet. All the best ones seem to be a little bit out of my price range...soon, though, soon.
