Ive used 870s for years . pretty much been my go to turkey guns. I decided I want a semi auto but my want is specific.
May be hunting a ghost gun lol.
20ga -20-21 inch barrel - youth (or short LOP)- new bottomland camo- drilled and tapped for optics. most likely an 11-87 but open to other brands.
Any Ideas of where to start?
It identifies as a semi-auto.
On the serious. I'm following this closely because that's exactly what I want.

I know that you said semiautomatic, but 870 compact fits everything but the "auto". I have been hunting with one this year, it patterns great but it still ain't my Ithaca model 37 turkey slayer, 12 bore.

Mossberg SA-20 comes with a 22 inch barrel, already has a picatanny rail mounted on it, 12 3/4" length of pull. But I have only seen it in the Mossy Oak Greenleaf Pattern

That looks like a solid option for OP. Could always get it dipped. I got my 870 dipped and then clear coated with cerakote for $250 locally. Of course it would be ideal to come as youd like it.

You have good taste sir.
We both do :funnyturkey:
I like it ...
You can get a black one and get it camo dipped, Remington 11-87 Compact 20 ga
Those are some sweet guns ...
Heartbreak Kid thats exactly the gun I want . Bring it to me dangit.
Truthfully I love my 870 just want to mix it up. By the way . My wife dont get it at all.
I just bought a Mossberg SA28 turkey and love it. There is a 20 ga version. Franchi Affinity is another great option, although the barrel is 24".
I wonder.. what parts from a 870 will fit the 11-87? barrel ? stock? i know the forearm wont.
