Hi, I bought my 12 yr old son a Condor Youth in 20ga this year. He has used this gun on everything from clays to ducks and upland game. While crude as Chief states, this gun has performed very well. No failures at all (FTF, doubling). The fit and finish are ok, the wood is rough, but the wood on my boys gun has some very nice figure to it. It was hard opening at first, but now opens just fine.
We looked at the SxS Uplander, way to heavy and clunky for a youth model (of course I'm far from being an Uplander fan).
For my son the bottom line is he loves it! He's shot quite a few birds this year and said he would not trade it for anything. To me thats all that counts.
Good Luck!!!
Greg
P.S. The gun comes with only 2 choke tubes (IC/Mod) I got some after market tubes from Carlsons, Winchester threads fit this gun perfect.
