Well, I couldn't wait until Monday to give the new 870 20 ga, so tonight seemed like a good night since Leah was going camping with the grandparents.  Many of you know I've been working on this gun since Feb.  The Burris FFII was mounted at the end of May and it's been so difficult to wait until July 25th.  Well...July 21st...close enough

Specs:  
21" POLISHED Barrel
Knox Specops recoil reducing stock with Limbsaver recoil pad
Black matching forend (thanks smokey)
IC .555 Choke (bought from an OG member)
Burris FFII (won on the OG Bingo game, thanks Burris and OG)  Mounted by an OG member THANKS!
Gobbler74 fast fire protector

Is the recoil pad softer than OE and if so how much. I hate how hard OE pad is.

Thanks John

Yep...much softer.  It is the limbsaver made for the Knox stock, so it feels just like all the other limbsavers.  I have it on both of my knox stocks.

There was absolutely no doubt that she was thrilled with that gun! Congratulations Dad. I think your gift was a hit. I hope that means many great years for you all.

Thanks,

If I had a dollar for every gobbler I thought I fooled I'd be well off!

Man, that is freakin AWESOME!!!!  You are one blessed man!  I would give my left arm if my little girl enjoyed hunting with me and I could buy her a gun or 3!

Awesome!! That's a sweet birthday present! The video was great! As soon as it cools off a bit, we will get patterns, right? ;)

Most definitley! She was ready to shoot it yesterday.  I think I will wait until our heat index here in Nashville is below 100.   :fire:

Probably in the fall.

Very nice indeed!!!!

My birthday is 11/30 but if you want to go ahead and give me my gun early (today) it will be just fine with me................ :z-guntootsmiley:
