I believe it was actually an 1100 20 gauge that they had dipped for someone's wife to use. Jeff Sherwood maybe?

Pretty sure that the original greenleaf days were before anyone (or any manufacturer anyway) really thought of the 20 gauge as a serious turkey gun. It was back before the htl revolution and the 20 was generally thought of as a kids gun. Thus, the manufacturers typically just made them in youth models and a few bare bones full size guns.
