im looking for a well made, cheap .410...if you cant recomend a specific gun even a company name would help. the last time i ask ppl on this site for a good .22 i was not let down i hope the same curtisy will be taken for a 410.

What type action are you looking for?Single shot break,pump,bolt?
Mossberg model 500 pump in.410 starts around $300.00.

[lefty o]

for a beginner, get a 20ga, or 12 ga with light loads.

[bigbuddy21]

savage makes a good .410

Rossi has some good deals for begginners. Look at the matched pairs they offer. I think H&R has one too.

[Alleydude]

Was looking at the Rossi's myself. The Matched Pair was available locally for about $140, which included a choice of .410 or 20 gauge, and a 22LR each. My only problem was that they were single shot and I was looking for a pump action. I would think a single shot 22LR would be difficult to load with my clumsy fingers, though my kid might have an easier time. Since she already has a Plinkster, I really didn't need the option.

On the plus side, besides the interchangable barrels, they were light weight and seemed to be pretty good quality.

We ended up getting a Charles Daly 20 gauge because of the price (under $200), but if I had the extra cash to spend I would have gotten the Mossberg .410 or 20 gauge pump action model. I'm a big fan of Mossy's now, in my short time owning guns, so my opinion doesn't hold a lot of weight. Just thought I'd share my observations on the Rossi's.

I have a high regard for my Rossi and plan to purchase the .243
heavy barrel gun later this spring.

I recommend it. Do not worry about the loading as it is not
difficult and will be no problem for a younger person. Also,
a single shot is the ideal first gun to learn concentration,
target acquisition, follow-through, etc.

Harrington and Richardson pardner shotgun .410 or 20 guage.
H & R Firearms Hope this helps!

[wheelingranger]

thank you all this site never lets me down. im looking at the rossi 410 / 17 hmr matched pair. one last question my father belongs to the NRA does that mean we can order online

[andrew cochran]

You need an FFL license to order online. However you can order online if you have them ship it to your dealer.

[wheelingranger]

[270wsm]

Dick's sporting goods stores have them. Do you have one of those near you?(it's similar to Sports Authority)

[wheelingranger]

[Lng Rng]

I would get a 20 Gauge. The shells are a lot cheaper, and you can do a lot more with them.

I'm glad you bought a .20ga.I dont consider a .410 a beginners gun since it takes more skill to hit with it than any other guage. sam.

[EHCRain10]

thats a good purchase that you made, supports an American company and you can pass the gun on to descendants
