410 shotguns are for a expert not a young youth ,the youth will get discourage buy him a simple 20 gauge pump with a decent safety,don`t be cheap with a kid remember someday they will put you in a Elim home do you want them to be cheap too ?

I liked the idea of the Remington because its easy to (squeeze) open, it ejects the hull, and there is no external hammer. it cocks on opening. super easy concept for kids.
ive been down your road.....I teach kids and finding guns that work is key. Good advice imo, though I still like an ultralite 12 or 20 with inserts, then reloads. You may do plenty of reloading. If not, you might also look at the Aguila minishells for just knocking sround and squirrels. Probably not enough shot for dove/etc, but ok for “stationary” game, and less recoil than the 2-3/4” stuff..

Looked at a Rossi 410 single shot at my local Bi-Mart yesterday.
Pretty good looking little shotgun for $109.97
Seems cheaper than most used ones at pawn shops.
Might be pretty handy to have around.
I've never had a 410. Must be about time!

Wrong again, I’m far from worked up.
The BS you are making up, is nothing more than pure BS. Turkeys consistently and cleanly at 40 yards with lead and a .410. Pure BS..
So you think Turkey’s are stupid and don’t deserve to be killed cleanly? You have the problem, not me.
Ha,ha? So juvenile, but not surprising.
You want to use the juvenile ha,ha. Will you are cappin. Look it up. I believe anything deserves to be killed cleanly, even varmints. I also know a full ckoke .410 with lead shot often won't even take a squirrel cleanly out of the top of a tall hickory when you're standing at the bottom of the tree. And yes I've had several .410's over the years and used them with both 2.5 and 3" shells with 4, 6, and 7.5 shot.

Bought the Rossi yesterday, and brought it home. $109.97 out the door! (no sales tax in Oregon)
I bought a box of #9 shot loads with it and a box of Hornady critical defense loads.
Got four loads of each in the ammo carrier on the butt.
Fun little "porch gun"
