I'm glad it's working for you. Last year I found what I thought would be my "ultimate upland gun" a double-proofed French 12 gauge with 27" barrels that weighed under 6lbs! Unfortunately, a trip to the range and then to the patterning board to figure out whatthehell! and I learned that I have to either bend or replace the stock. I did get it to finally work for me after installing a butt-ugly 1/4" thick cheek pad on the gun. However, the gun is in almost unfired condition and I may just restock it, though my common sense (whatever that is) says to sell it.

If I was going to describe my idea of a perfect bird gun for me that 20 gauge gun with those specs comes as close as any. I have one in 28 gauge that I bought new seventeen years ago (I won't say how much their price has increased since then) and it has functioned flawlessly.
