[QUOTE="svnmag, post: 53051, member: 330"] Hence my comments on recoil. Be careful not to get a 20 on 12 frame or not. This is more of an issue with repeaters which may be a plus with smaller shooters. A 20/16, on the proper frame will kick no less than a 12 and perhaps more with the 3in 20 abomination. Gun companies "now a days" and "days past" manufacture the same gun by preserving/shaving steel. Go to any companies website: The more powerful the rifle caliber; the lighter the weight. The 870/1100 16ga is a fine example of my rambling as they're nothing more than a 12ga preserving more steel; a benefit to smaller shooters but providing a heavier gun for them to tote. A M12/97 or a Savage single bbl is proportionate to gauge. This may be also true for the Ithaca 37 and I know it to be true for an A5 16 with it's sexy appointed Prince of Whales wrist and grip. It amuses me how the A5 is known for it's recoil as an H&R 20 is good for a first shotgun. Shotguns kick.
