I have the youth model 20 Urika. Tried the single H&R when my son was that age and he fought back tears from the recoil.......
He is now 14 and we moved him to a longer stock this past season.
My boy is on the smaller side, just now breaking a 100 pounds as a freshman in high school.
You can teach them quite a bit on safety at a clays field.
Mine wants to shoot ALLLLL the time now.
I have another Urika that has a shortened stock if you would like to try it, maybe we can hook up in jennings at the sporting clays place and he can try it out.
The 20 gauge pumps can be bruttal in my opinion.
and if he has a bad experience now, it could set him back.
Go auto and go one shot until you are confident in his safety awareness.
