Which shotgun should I buy? (lemmy.world)

Looking for gas operated semi-auto shotgun for shooting trap with my wife. My full size 12 gauge is just too big and heavy for her. I would love one with an adjustable stock for length of pull but can't seem to find any.

In several places it's illegal to have a semi-auto shotgun with both a pistol grip and a collapsible stock. It's also illegal to have a shotgun under 26 inches in length or a shotgun barrel under 18 inches.

The Benelli Ultralight at 6.1 lbs is probably your best option. Here's an article with a few more options.

Thanks, but I never stated we need a pistol grip. Just hoping we can find a gun that works for multiple ages and sizes of shooters. Will check the ultralight
