Edgy . Does that BPS have switchable barrels and is it wood or synthetic stocked ?
Thank You

The BPS I got came with a 22” barrel but there are 26” and 28” barrels available, although i may have to order one from the US as they seem a bit hard to find in Canada at the moment. I got the wood model, I’ve owned a 12 gauge BPS previously and they are excellent firearmsIMG_2455.jpeg

Guntech when would they have been made and discontinued ?
Or does Remington still make 20 gauges on 20 gauge frames ?
Sorry if this was mentioned

I was out of the retail sales end of business too long and I am not knowledgeable of the production dates of the 20 gauge framed 870's or 1100's.

According to Wikipedia, "All Remington 870 versions are built on the same platform and receiver, but there are small differences that can be more than just cosmetic. In 1969, Remington introduced 28 gauge and .410 bore models on a new scaled-down receiver size, and in 1972, a 20-gauge Lightweight ("LW") version was introduced on the same sized receiver, and all of the smaller gauges today are produced on that size receiver. From the original fifteen models offered, Remington currently produces dozens of models for civilian, law enforcement, and military sales."

Great thing about the 20 gauge with light loads, the recoil is completely non-existent. Why i bet even

That's a great question ,I normally would have said mod but have been shooting my 20 g Browning gold at ducks for last couple years with IC. Bigger steel shot seems to work better but could be the choke as well, I'M sure there will be some op from others.:)

The 20 ga will do almost everthing a 12 will do but with a lot less recoil,the 12 is better suited for longer range ducks and geese.I use a cheap charles daly in 20 semi for turkeys with the right choke it will knock them down past 40 yrds,my slug gun is a 220 savage and for upland birds I carry a browning pump in 20,short,fast a easy carrying,can<t go wrong with a 20 ga

the recoil on a 20 ga is not less than a 22 ga and the 20 ha will not do everything a 12 ga will do
