My first was ordered from the Sears catalog...12ga Noble pump. It was a poorly engineered gun and I did not shoot it well. Tried my uncle's Wingmaster and I broke 24 or 25 targets at his trap range. He was the state champion. A few years went by and still a teen there appeared a Parker of 1908 with broken stock at a country auction. $42 later it was mine. Fixed the stock and it's still a joy to shoot. After many years, a lot of guns have found their way into my safe. Most are doubles. But none were more exciting than that auction find with my father who encouraged me to bid just a little more than I had intended. Don't know why I'm sharing all this, but there it is.

The best shotgun for you to buy is.... the *second* gun that you own. You don't know what you want until you know what you want, spend the real money on your second gun.

I bought an beretta 686 sp1 as my first shotgun, i tought it was way too mutch money at first but when i was in the shop getting hands on different guns i had a second tought. I need one shotgun, one for the rest of my hunting life so i spend in my case a good amount of money on my first and only shotgun. And I could not be happier about it 🙂 Sorry for my broken english...

My first shotgun was given to me by my Grandfather. I still have it to this day, and is obviously, precious being my Grandfathers. It is a Rowland Watson boxlock non ejector. It has just had its second major restoration since I have owned it. It would never be an economic based restoration, but purely sentimental. There is now always a sense of occasion when I take it shooting, reminiscing of the first time I pulled its trigger at 11 years old under supervision of, "Grandad". Sunday evenings where very special, looking forward to shooting, board, tin cans, and pieces of cardboard, eventually, moving targets, by way of him throwing a weighted baked beans tin, etc. How do I value it? Priceless.

Shoot multiple guns, have fun. My son likes guitars and it gets complicated. The best bit of advice we had during that process was from a professional musician. Pick up, play and handle multiple pieces of kit before committing. Don't invest a ton of money to begin with and end up with too much gun to appreciate. You may like a gun, shoot for months and then pick up something else and then realise you didn't actually know what was good for you. If you can't afford the money for new that will be fitted to you, buying second hand can be a bit of a compromise. I've only been to a about 4 gun shops but they all had good advice and none of them wanted to sell me something that was beyond me. The being happy bit is the most important advice. Thanks.

Just bought my first gun and this video sort of put me at ease. I was worried I'd made the wrong choice, got the wrong length, wrong calibre, wrong this that etc. I still am a complete novice and only shot a handfull of times. It's nice to know there's no definative answer and I should just see where the road takes me. Constrained by budget (whopping £500) I've opted for an older miroku based off some recommendations off friends (as well as jonnys glowing report some videos back), being a lefty whos only ever shot right handed guns hopefully it should feel more natural as well.

I have an over under, I brought from some one who couldn't take it to the country he was moving to, and a side by side which is old, very well used and was given to me, as the owner didn't want it anymore. Both go bang when the triggers are squeezed, and that makes me very happy irrespective of if I bag something or not, or if I miss every clay. Great Video, and good to hear I got it right on both occasions even if it was by chance and good fortune. Thanks

Hi Johnny, I know this video is a couple of years old, with clay shooting, & game shooting being more accessible to more people today. Could you do a more up to date video of buying a first gun. Compared when I started shooting 40 odd years ago there is more choice therefore for people buying there first gun must be like going through a minefield. Keep the videos coming, always interesting.

My first gun was a Browning 525 Light Elite. Before I bought it I shoot for a year with friends, and had a go with a Beretta Silver Pigeon, a Browning 425 525 and 725 and a Webley and Scott. When I went to buy my own shotgun I'd had some experience with them and I just liked the feel of a Browning. So when I when shopping for my first shotgun I picked a number of Browning up and the 525 Light Elite just felt right. Its a lightweight shotgun, and it feels more like a rifle. I felt I could just shoot better with this, so I bought it. 6 years later I still shoot with this shotgun, and am very happy with it 👍

Good recommendations Johnny, you're a completely different shooter from when you picked up your first gun. It's about the fit of gun, comfort, mounting & swing. Getting used to shooting with both eyes open. Targets generally moving so stance, mount & swing are very important.For anyone starting to shoot go to shooting grounds & take out a few guns & see how you get on. Instructors will be on hand to lend advice. (Some will naturally plug the big brands as they're getting commission from suppliers)At the end of the day if you're hitting targets don't care what gun you're holding.

My 1st shotgun was a Remington Model 11 12 gauge. Used for ducks, actually shot it one morning and tipped the boat over. Boy did it have the recoil. Awesome gun though. For clays 1st was Beretta 391 12 gauge, then a Beretta O/U 20 gauge. Then Beretta A400 12 gauge and finally The Browning 725 Sporting 12 gauge 30 inch barrels ported. This is the ONE that I will be sticking with for a long time. Have a good one and May God bless y'all.

My second gun I got great advice from this channel. I had a budget that could have allowed me to spend thousands more than I did. I watched the 686 vs 692 video and completely knew a 686 would be everything I needed. Found a great 32' sporting 686 with grade 3 wood for what a regular priced sporting should be on a good sale.. thanks for a great channel.

I usually abide by the “buy your last one first” rule, but when it comes to sport shooting, I’ve failed. Here in 🇨🇦, it’s next to impossible to try before you buy, so you’re rolling the dice that the gun you shoulder a few times at the store is going to work for you at the range. In my case they did, but not truly.

I followed the 'Buy Once, Cry Once' rule and got my self the Caesar Guerini Summit Sporter as my first clay gun. I originally planned for Berreta Silver Pigeon I, a proven starter gun. But, I found my self keep walking back to the Guerini section and looking at it. Went back home to think little more. Then I watched your review referring the Guerini to Dreamy. Then I said my self yes that was it. It was dreamy and sexy. I really didn't want to regret not buying what my heart was beating to and decided to buy the Guerini. Lucky me, when I went back to the shop, I found exact same model that a rich lady traded in after 200 hundred rounds for more premium model. I ended up paying $1200 less than MSRP which was only $800 higher than I intended to spend. I'm a happy shooter with a clay gun fits well shoots well looks sexy and feels dreamy. Yep, I got lucked out on this one.

Interesting down to earth advice, but for someone like me - totally new to shotguns - not enough basics were covered. For example, and bear in mind that at 70 years of age all I have ever seen were 1950s and 60s shotguns owned by then local farmers, Does one have a choice of barrel length? Importance? All the twelve bores I saw had two triggers - relevance? Do shotgun barrels wear out as rifle barrels do? (I have tried rifle and pistol shooting). How can one determine the extent of barrel wear if a factor? I tend to surround myself with as much vintage as possible. Could a vintage shotgun be as good as a contemporary one? Are double vertical barrels any better than side by side barrels? In what situations would a 10 bore be better than a twelve bore?

I have watched this clip several times as I am in that first gun elusive search. I see your point about older quality opposed to shinny new cheap guns. I struggle with fit in that I can’t get flat on the rib, it must be head shape. All I see is all of the rib and shoot high. I end up pushing my face into the Combe to see flat and hit something. Some feel good in the hand but view is terrible. I will hopefully get that eureka moment soon.

Your first gun makes you happy if it hits targets. A day at the range is frustrating and painful if you're missing targets for no identifiable reason. The same is true of a game gun that wounds game without clean kills. Good gun fit reduces the number of mysterious misses. In my view, leave fancy walnut/gold dog engraving/ejectors/ultra-long barrels for your second (or twenty-second) gun. The first gun should fit well and mount consistently, with the rib consistently positioned in front of the eye and the head consistently in a good position. All else can wait.

Was a remington 870 wingmaster mind I'm only 15 but if your here in the states I would buy a pump action cause they are very reliable and will run pretty much anything if you pick a reliable platform , yes you could buy a semi but not all are created equal semis are picky with shells and more complex to clean as with a pump easy to clean and if you pick a reliable platform like the remington 870 or mossberg 500 they have all kinds of stuff out there for them you could buy a rifled slug barrel for deer a 30 inch barrel for trap you could buy different stocks to fit you and they are simple to take apart but again that's just what I think.

I went in with a £1.5k budget when I got into shotgun shooting, convinced I was going to buy a Beretta or Browning, but neither fit or felt as good as I thought. I then picked up an ATA that fit and felt perfect and I hit 20/25 clays. Saved myself £1k by not buying a Beretta just for it being a Beretta. And being primarily an air gun shooter, I then went and bought the air arms S410 I'd always wanted with that £1k 🤣

My advice would be to buy a nice one as your first. Because if you are a true gun person, you’ll never sell it. To a true gun person, they hold a lifetime of memories. I still remember the first shot, the first dove I missed with dad, the first pheasant, the first time shooting trap (badly) with friends and practicing enough to figure it out quickly. Heck, if I think hard enough, I can probably remember every critter I’ve gotten with that shotgun, including 9 straight doves only to miss a perfect low incomer that would have been 10 for 10 but I had to shoot it with number 11 as a hard left crosser. Probably the least expensive firearm I own but it was a quality if plain Franchi 48AL that’s given me perfect service for almost 50yrs now. Although I’ll generally grab something else, I probably shoot it as well as the nicer guns I’ve acquired. But at 6lbs, I’m not sure I’d want to take the beating of a 100 rounds like I used to! lol 👍🏼

Just buy a gun that makes you happy and gets you the results you want. Hence, I bought a side by side because you tempted me LOL but I need to sort out the calibre (supposedly 16 bore but with .700 and .710 bore diameter barrels) and looking at a O/U. Just need to find the one whose balance I like. B525 but center of gravity needs to shift more backwards and perhaps lose some weight (so guess I'll have to peek at beretta's).

Can you do a video on buying a second hand shotgun? - what to look out for to get an idea of it's condition such as has it fired a million cartridges or will the action drop off?

Odd question, did a bit of pheasant shooting in my youth in Sussex and am thinking about taking up again...in America. Everyone recommends I buy a pump. Are pump action shot guns not popular in the UK? I have to confess they are a bit uncouth but they seem to work fine, be reasonably priced.

My advice would be buy it at a store. Then you can see how well it fits at the store before you spend your money. If you buy a shotgun online you may disappointed when it arrives in the mail, and fit is so important to good shotgun shooting.

I applied for my SGC in June, in last part now I have watched this video a few times now. I have to say it's a bloody hard thing to choose your first gun, but I have decided I'll buy from the shooting school/club I go to. But still can't decide between second hand or Turkish.

Real Gun fit on first gun is paramount imo remember most shops (not tgs) are motivated by sales only and especially second hand guns you will often be told it fits when you are making your self fit it
