I recently started trap shooting and love it. And for once,think it's something gun-related my girlfriend would like too. I have a Mossberg 500A 12ga with I think a 26" barrel. With a 2.75" shell loaded with 1oz of #7, it kicks about the same as my Mosin 91/30, which I know is too much for her to enjoy shooting. I've talked this over with her and offered to take her to a gun shop and buy something specifically suited to her needs, but she wants to instead try mine out rather than burden me with a purchase (how nice of her).
If she shoots what I've been shooting I feel she would be discouraged from the sport.
I have a recoil pad for the shotgun, but is there anything else I could do to make her more comfortable trying mine out?
