newazhunter Report post Posted January 24, 2020 Looking to get a 20 gauge shotgun for my son. We have an upcoming turkey hunt in May. Prefer Remington 870 but open to other options. Does anyone have any currently for sale? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
broadhead Report post Posted January 24, 2020 I have a 20 gauge that currently has a slug barrel on it for deer hunting the thick stuff in the Midwest. I believe it's a Browning but I would have to double check for sure if you were interested. Located near Tucson. Otherwise I have an 870 n 12 gauge and a Browning that is basically the exact model in case you're not totally decided on a 20 gauge. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think I need a 20 gauge for him, since he's only every shot a .22 rifle. He's 6'2", but not much meat on him yet. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

merwin Report post Posted January 30, 2020 I have a new, un-fired Remington 11-87 Sportsman Compact 20 gauge I would sell. It has synthetic youth model butt stock but includes the spacers to increase the LOP. IIRC the barrel is 21" and I have some new extra chokes to go with it. I have the lock, plug, manual etc. (in north Phoenix) 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I didn't know they had a 1187 with stock like that with spacers that is cool. I know a few cheaper brands have it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
muledeerarea33? Report post Posted January 30, 2020 Semi auto 12 will have less or similar recoil to a pump 20. Just something to consider if one comes up. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

merwin Report post Posted January 31, 2020 Does the Ben Avery Clay center still have rental shotguns? That would offer an inexpensive opportunity for the young man to try out a gun or two. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
