My wife has some interest in trap shooting and my local club does it twice a week.
I shot (and owned) as 12 ga (mossberg 500 pump) for a number of years and never liked the kick (nor the quality of the gun). I know she's not gonna like a 12ga.
My son is on the jr rifle team and I can see him at some point wanting to try trap - again, 20ga seems to make more sense than 12ga.
So is shooting trap with a 20ga 'feasible' or would it put one at a great handicap?
If it's not too far out there, then what gun would be a good choice? I'm thinking semi auto (unless there is a reason not to). I've no plans to hunt with the gun (a consideration in PA as no semi auto can be used to hunt)
