Who says a 20-gauge can't be tacti-cool!

Lookin' good Pam. Not sure about the forend issue that Glock21 is talking about. Never noticed any problem when I had it, but if it does create any kind of access issue, then you should certainly consider trimming it.

OK, here's the finished product!
Pushing in on both of those little doojimawhatchits (carrier releases) inside the chamber while trying to insert the bolt carrier/forend apparatus isn't the easiest to coordinate, took both of us together to do it!

Thats sweet I have long sought to build a 870 20 ga youth model into an HD gun. I dont think anyones gonna be able to tell much difference between 20 ga 00 buck and 12 ga at less than 30 feet...

Beautiful shotgun and that new fore end looks great!

Sweet setup, removing the action assembly isn't so bad once you get the hang of it. You'll be a pro in no time.

Where does "brass to grass" come from? and why?

Pants on the ground...............My brass is on the grass.........

For some people they only drill reloading from a side saddle with ammo brass down.

Others use "Buck up" meaning Buck loads go in the saddle brass up and slugs go brass down.

Others only do brass up so they won't lose rounds due to vibration from recoil.

Brass up has been my final conclusion after lots of observation over the years. It's not only vibration from recoil, it's bouncing around from any kind of movement. Once you start running it's very common for brass down shells to start falling out.
