I have two 20 gauge BSS's, both in sporter configuation with upgraded wood. I also have the original pistol grip stocks and beaver tail fore ends. I have had these guns a long time, one is sst and the other is nst. I consider them a litle heavy for 20 gauge, but they have never failed and seem to be very well made. The 20 gauge sporters are commanding a heavy price and may not be a god value. That said, mine are not for sale even though I mostly shoot an AyA #2 in 16 gauge.
