What is out there in the way of tactical shotguns in 20guage that would work well for 3 gun?

My girlfriend is pretty recoil sensitive. To the point that she started reloading shot shells to reduce the kick. She reloads 20.

I doubt her loads would cycle a autoloader but maybe a semi auto would soften the kick enough for her to shoot full power loads?

Anyways I was looking to buy her something for her birthday.

I was looking at a Mossberg SA-20 and a Weatherby SA-459.

Has anyone had any experience with either?

What else is there worth looking at?

A pump action would work with her light loads so maybe I should look at that. But then she will have to reload a ton more to practice shooting.

Thanks.

If you just dated bigger girls you would not have this problem :p
 
Anything gas-operated in 20ga should be pretty acceptable. I had a very small woman out yesterday and she found the 1100 20ga to be pretty soft, a youth model would be been better though.
I however wasn't a fan of the gate, too difficult to manipulate easily.

What's the difference between a 1100 and a 11-87?

This one might be good.

Also for a semi-auto a 3" chamber would be nice. So then you can have 6, 2 3/4" shells in the mag.

Does any one know if the Mossberg SA-20 has interchangeable stocks with any other mossberg shotguns?

Just thinking about finding a stock with a shorter length of pull for my girlfriend.

Thanks.
