Rob, I have a 5100 in 20 ga. Restocked with a straight grip, had two inches cut off the barrels, and it is my woodcock gun. With no choking, it is also better on the skeet field then I am. Last year I bought a 311a 16 ga that needs something done with the barrels to open them up.
I saved the stock of the 5100 and cut it down for youth; when grandson comes up to shoot, I switch stocks and he is ready to burn thru some shells.
Some may say I butchered the gun, I think I modified to get maximum use out of it.
