So I have been going to the trap range at my club for the past month, enjoying dipping my toe, and benefiting from the kindness of others in borrowing different guns to try shouldering and shooting some rounds of trap to get a feel for things. At the same time I have been avoiding actually looking at anything in stores because I know once I start, I will likely be taking something home the same day so in the interest of not jumping in without any experience I had been holding off.
So now I am ready to start (and conclude) my shopping for a shotgun to continue my foray into Trap and I need to figure out what places I should look to find my first shotgun. Since I want to buy quality, I know my money will go farther with a used gun and so I need to figure out what are the better places around MA/Southern NH/ME to buy one.
I have gotten recommendations of:
Al's in Derry NH
Kittery Trading Post
(Possibly?) the Gun Library at the new Cabelas
I figure there can only be a handful of places that would regularly have a variety of used shotguns so I just wanted to make sure I knew where these places might be.
