What's a good 12 gage shootgun for a beginner?

A pump action or breech load would be much lighter than a semi-auto and be easier to break down for cleaning. For a smaller person you might consider a 20 gauge or even a 410 for a child. Something inexpensive would be fine until the beginner decides they enjoy shooting and get the hang of it, then shop for a better replacement gun. I like my wingmaster a lot.

I suggest a nicer spyder.  Something on the lines of an Electra or an Imagine.  The electra is a great lightweight gun that is perfect for aggressive front players.  with the right hopper it should be able to shoot at least 20 balls per second depending on your shooting skill.  It has the rocking trigger which is really helpful.  If you are really skilled you can get it to shoot 27, 28 balls per second.  I reccomend this gun highly since i have used it.  You can get it for like 250 dollars.  Great Gun

try www.wildimports.com   They have what you are looking for.  They cost a few bucks, but are actually quite good prices for the quality you are getting.  I LOVE cannons!  Get one!  Try the mountain howizter.....\n\nIf you don't want to spend quite that much money, you can always find a Coehorn mortar.  They make them in golf ball size or beer can size.  Put a charge of black powder in one of those babies and it'll rattle the mountainside!  They are fun too and you can get a decent quality mortar for a few hundred bucks.

The baby glock or any saturday night special. Also the Beretta Cricket packs a punch. Pricey though. Check out www.gunbroker.com

I'm not sure there is any that exist, as far as what a person could carry.\nThe USAS-12 and MK3A1 Jackhammer are the best known autos. MK3A1 fires 240 rpm, which also the drum magazine can be removed and affixed to a detonator to be used as an anti personnel mine.\nThen there's the AA12 which has a rpm of 300.\nI'm no expert but I honestly don't think you'll find a 12 gauge that can fire that fast without ripping your shoulder off/extreme barrel rise. And since shotguns fire shot/fletchettes/whatever and useless at long range, I don't see any viable reason why they would make a shotgun that a person couldn't ideally use.

Bound's hubby here:\n\nI think your selection of a Remington 700 is a good choice. Prices vary, ranging from $659 to $859, depending on which model you select (I have included the Remington link, which includes MSRP pricing). \n\nA bit above, someone mentioned something about the ."243, go with the 6mm Remington, and that you could also shoot the .243 in it". If that is what they said, it is wrong and dangerous. The cartridge case dimensions for the 6mm Remington and the .243 Winchester are very different!\n\nA quick (perhaps unwanted history) on the 6mms:\n\nThe .244 Remington was made with a 1x12" twist, and fired bullets up to 100 grains. Heavier than 100 grain bullets would not stabilize with the 1x12" twist.\n\nWinchester introduced the .243 Winchester to compete with the .244 Remington. The .243 was designed to be fired in rifles with 1x10" twist, which would stabilize bullets a little hevier than 100 grains ... up to I believe 120 grains.\n\nRemington saw the writing on the wall, and up-graded the .244 Remington and introduced it as a new cartridge, the 6mm Remington. The 6mm Remington was designed to be fired out of rifles with a 1x9" twist, which can stablilize slightly heavier bullets than the 120 grain ... The 6mm Remington had a slight advantage, in that its case dimensions were identical to the older .244 Remington, and these two cartridges are interchangeable! But neither are interchangeable with the .243 Winchester!\n\nWhich you go with depends entirely upon your needs and preferences. Both the 6mm Remington and the .243 Winchester are supposed to be lighter recoiling cartridges (lighter, relative to the .308 Winchester or the .30-06 Springfield)!\n\nGood luck!

berretta is a superb shotgun, but if your wanting the same durability and save some money go for a remington. i have a 67' model remington 1100 12 guage, that is all original rite down to the rubber o-rings around the gas piston. never had a problem out of it, all i have had to do was keep it clean. still shoots as fast as a new one, and 100% dependable.

Get a shotgun first.  There so many more things you can hunt with them.  I would suggest a middle of the road 12 ga semi.  The mp-153 is a good inexpensive gun.  Was made in Russia by Baikal, now it's owned by Remington.

Thompson Center makes an affordable model chambered in a variety of calibres. They are single shots and without the recoil mechanism of an automatic will have a bigger kick, not to mention you may only have time for one shot so make it count.

Hey, I'd recommend the TL-R. Very solid, very reliable gun. I have one. I went Paintballing with my TL-R it's very conservative on C02 so you won't have to refill for a while, it's very accuarte once you tweek the Hop Up a little bit and get it perfect. Go with the TL-R they're relatively inexpensive and they last a very long time. And If you're looking to spend under 300, I can sell you the TL-R, Redz Paintball Armor, Woodland Camo, Full Head Helmet, 10 oz C02 tank with a Buttstock, a Neck Protector and Gloves for 275. Give me an Email at curnuttematt@yahoo.com if you're interested or if you have AOL instant Messenger, get me at Spartan Airsoft. Consider that, you don't really need anything else after that.

well you could get a mini they shoot around 150. of course there are all pos's and will break immediately. for just screwing around in you're basement I'd recommend a tangfolio witness it cost about $18 and I've heard it's really good but i have no personal experience with it. if you want to go with a rifle/shotgun i recommend the UTG m87 theres full stocked, pistol grip, and one with a m4 stock. i would say go with spring powered unless you want to spend a lot of money cuzz any electric/gas gun you get for cheap is just gonna break. i know you just want to fuck around with something but don't throw away you're money. i started out with a mini from a flea market and i regret it it broke and is a pos. if you want to know any more about airsoft you can contact me at baconbits93@yahoo.com also a great website that i have learned a lot from is air softforum.com    http://www.airsoftforum.com/board/index.php well feel free to contact me and don't forget airsoft is a serious sport.

The RWS model 34 would be a great choice...RWS makes high quality precision air guns...For $230 you will have, not only a great practice rifle but one that your son will use for a lifetime and then hand down to his son...\n\nMy personal favorite is the Feinwerkbau(FWB) 124D but, they are long out of production and the owners of these are very proud of them...It is possible to still find one one every now and again on http://www.gunbroker.com or http://www.gunsamerica.com if money is no object this is one heck of a rifle...Maybe the finest rifle of any type ever, almost Olympic match grade accuracy in a sporting air rifle, and it's built to last several life times, the maintenance calls for one drop of oil after the first six million rounds...\n\na couple of places to check air rifle prices\nhttp://www.airgunwarehouseinc.com\nhttp://www.pyramidair.com\n\nfor information on air guns\nhttp://www.beeman.com\n\nLook into the Ruger 10/22 when you feel he's ready...
