Though Eileen and I just spend a couple hours weighing various 20-gauges we own, along with measuring the chokes, etc. The daughter of some of our old friends wants to start bird hunting (we helped her get a first deer a couple years ago), and beforehand we had her shoot several of our rifles--and let her choose her favorite. Which of course probably works better than somebody choosing one for her.
We're going to do the same thing ASAP with various guns, along with some shooting instruction. Eileen is particularly good at that with other women.
