Ok guys I sold my encore pro hunter 20 gauge to a fellor, so I decided to take the money and replace it with another gun.
Went to Walmart today and bought a Remington 870 compact 20 gauge. I have been looking for an all camo one. And thanks to Greg Massey on here he was at Walmart in TN yesterday and told me he seen one. So I went to my local Walmart here in NC and they had 2 in the back. I bought it and so far have installed a claw sling. This gun already comes with sling mounts unlike your normal compact 870 20 gauge.
I have ordered a sumtoy Mount for my ff3 and going to have my local gunsmith drill and tap and install the sumtoy Mount once I get it, I am going to install the ff3. I also ordered a sumtoy 562-5 choke. I am going to shoot apex 3" 1 5/8 oz 9 shot tss out of it Lord willing.
Here is a picture of the gun.

Hey man Walmart has them 367.00 plus tax you just have to go to Walmart and ask them to look in back for "Remington 870 camo" it's not in there system as compact or any other way. My Walmart's here have them in the back.

One tip I will offer, listen to anyone that has more years in the woods than you do. Also good that someone has started you on a 20 gauge, I am 54 and this will be my second year with one, I sure wish someone had turned me on to it way early in my hunting years. I have a M2 20 but I am also wanting to add that Rem 20 to my arsenal!

if you drive a brown truck for a living that means you have plenty of knowledge on places for us hunt.........

Ha every time I see some birds in a field and ask the land owner they say that's geese not turkeys! I was in a club that was on my route for 7 years but the timber company cut every tree on it, I got in a new club that is also on my route that I hope is as good as the deer hunters say! I will be the only one hunting 1100 acres
Praise the Lord man that's awesome.

These are nice little guns. I bought one last year and really like it.
Nice. I made one like similar. I had it dipped in bottomland and mounted a ff on a 336 and put a indain creek choke in it. That was several years ago. I still haven't shot it.
