Since we are a team that focuses on using the 20 gauge shotgun for taking gobblers, our guns are our theme. One of the things that's fun is custom tweaking our guns to suit ourselves and hopefully enhance our hunting.

Let's post some photos and descriptions (and nicknames if they have them) of your 20 gauges that will be roaring for you this year.

I call mine, Little Nelli. She is a M1 Super 90 Benelli.
She has been a joy and sweetheart to carry and shoot.
She has taken 12 fairly large Toms, in just her first two years of service.
Yep, she does it all,... Turks, Doves, Ducks, and even Old Crows. No optics for her. She is content with just a little red bead.
Actually bought her for my Wife, but she still likes the Double better. Werx fer me! 
That is the M1 on the bottom.  10 ga Browning on top. LOL!!

Well this will be my first year to hunt with a 20 ga, so as Gophert can attest I have tools in my basement and with the winter, I have time to play.
This started life as a Mossy youth gun, I am 6'4" tall so the short stock was a no go. I figured as long as I was putting a new stock on it, why not put on something that felt good to me. I bought a Remington Shur Shot stock set from Midway, sent the gun and had it Ceracoated, cut the forearm to look something like the Rem. forearm, and mounted a Burris FFIII to it (not pictured). The result, is either a Remberg, or a Mossington, which ever you prefer.
I have also started on an 870 20 ga that I picked up this past Sunday. So far it has been on the mill to be drilled and tapped for a 336 mount. I have tuned the trigger to 3 lbs, bedded to 336 mount to the action, and polished the barrel. I am going to change the lam. stock out for a factory synthetic stock of some kind.

As soon as the weather breaks and gets up around 55-60 deg, I am going to shoot these two and see what I really have. I am about the go nuts in the mean time.

Here is the "Frank-N-Gun"/Mossington/Remberg

[gophert]

Yes, pullit has plenty of BIG machines in his basement.  I figured by now he would just make his own gun  and call it a pullington.  Oh well, a mossingtonRemberg will do. 

Me and camocutie pretty much shoot the same thing.  Her's is a little more to her liking.  She calls her's Merice, (murrese).  She doesn't like camo on her gun, just flat black.  Mine, is the camo 870, with no name.

Mine is a Remington 870 Express 20 gauge with a polished barrel and a drilled and tapped receiver, a Mueller Quick-Shot red-dot sight mounted on a picatinny rail, custom 3D camouflage and a hand woven paracord sling.

Ok...that right there is crazy looking.  You better never set it down in the woods and turn your head or you will never find it again.  What is it on the gun?

As a point of historical note, I was once momentarily baffled as to the whereabouts of the referenced firearm following an impromptu urinary event. After a thorough search of the immediate area, the referenced firearm was identified and taken back into possession. On a positive side note, the referenced firearm had not been unwittingly used as an accessory in the urinary event. I was self-admonished to take a more active role in the marking of the location of the referenced firearm during future dispensatory events.
