Title: Remington 870 wingmaster
Post by: Naches Sportsman on April 29, 2012, 09:18:31 PM: After 2 years waiting for a new 20 gauge I am about to pull the trigger and buy a remington 870 20 gauge. I think I made a good decision :). How many of you have these?

I was thinking about getting the 20 for my daughter

been thinking about looking for a 20 gauge lightweight magnum to compliment my 12 gauge.
