Customer Reviews for Weatherby SA-08 Compact Youth 20 Gauge Shotgun

Great shotgun and a great price. Follow the break in instructions. It's light and it cycles most loads. A+++

Great little gun that's well built for the money. Perfect turkey gun paired with tss.

Excellent all around gun, A+++!

Solid 20-gauge shotgun, have had no issues with it since taking it out for the first time! I am 5’0” 100lbs and it is the perfect size beginner shot gun for a teen or small adult. Very fun little trap shooter as it is quite light. The order was processed and delivered right on time as well. Very happy with this purchase and the service through buds!

Bought this gun for the women in the family to shoot sporting clays. A very nice gun for the price and as always Buds does a superb job in processing and
shipping their products. Given the problems with supply chain issues, shortages of employees and other issues everyone is dealing with, thumbs up for
how quickly the gun arrived. Haven't had the gun to the range yet, but first impressions are always an indicator and I'm very happy with the purchase.

Bought this shotgun for my wife and it looks and feels great. We've not had any problems and it's lightweight and fits the ladies very well. Highly recommend

I have owned a number of shotguns in my life but the Weatherby SA 08 20 gauge YTH Synthetic is by far the best, it is very light compared to other shotguns and also very easy to shoot and very smooth the functionality of the gun is great.

Great shooter. Cycled 7/8oz loads at 1250FPS very well. 10yr old son handled the recoil perfectly.

This is a great youth shotgun. Quality is very good for its price range and recoil was mild. The firearm is pretty well balanced but is a little barrel heavy however it didn’t affect my sons ability to handle the gun. I originally purchased a mossberg pump gun for my son but the recoil was too much so I replaced it with this gun and he really likes it. He will be 9 in 3 months. If you are looking for a quality but affordable youth shotgun this is a great choice. In my research I also found this shotgun is thought to be the best youth shotgun for reliability since it has different gas ports for lighter and heavier loads.

GOOD GUN FITS A SHORT ARM SHOOTER PERFECT I WILL GIVE 5 STARS

The full sized version of this has been a solid gun. I bought this one for the grand kids and others to use. You can't go wrong with an SA-08. I also have the 28 gauge deluxe version which is a beautiful shotgun.

Awesome gun. Bought it for my wife and younger kids to shoot. Everyone loves it and I don't hear complaints about recoil from anyone. Takedown is super easy. Love the concept of the dual pistons, but I'll never use the "heavy" one. No FTF's or eject, ever, even on cheapo Wally ammo. Be aware the finish on the barrel isn't the greatest, that kind of painted on type. After a year, has a few places where the finish has rubbed off. No worries here as this is a shooter, not a safe queen.

Although I've only had this shotgun for a short period, I'm highly pleased this far. It was purchased for my 11 year old daughter. It's light, easy to operate, and a great value in a youth gun. She and I will continue to put this gun through its paces, but so far I have absolutely nothing negative to say. It is my first Weatherby purchase and it appears it's not my last. Should I be in the market for a new autoloafing shotgun I will strongly consider a 12 gauge in the model line. I'd also like to add that the purchase process from Buds to my choice of FFL was quick and seamless.
