Ladies,
I'm in need of a little advice. My daughter is turning 17 shortly. I'd like to give her her own rifle or shotgun as a birthday present, as she's shown some interest and is one heck of a naturally gifted shooter. Plus she'll be on her own soon; I want to make sure she can protect herself! I'm leaning toward a lever rifle or pump shotgun since she is left-handed and seems to dislike the right-side ejection ports of semi-automatics and the right-handed bolt actions are a little annoying for lefties. She's also very short and unlikely to grow any time soon, so I feel as if a small, manageable rifle may be a good choice.
Any advice for a dad on what to give his left-handed, second-most-favorite girl in the world (the first being her mother!) for a long gun?
Regards,
Matt B.
