I'm considering a Rossi or NEF combo gun (come with a .22LR and a shotgun barrel). These are very inexpensive, and they seem like they would be nice guns for teaching kids (I have an 11-year-old son, and I'm a Boy Scout leader). I've heard varying opinions on quality (one guy told me the Rossi is much better, but another says the NEF is the best). I probably won't have a chance to see them both before I buy (I'll be ordering it). I posted this question on the rifle forum earlier today, but I got to thinking that these are more like shotguns than typical rifles, so people on the shotgun forum might have more experience with them. I'd like a .22/20ga combo. Thanks.
