Help me with a build…

I also swapped the trigger spring in my Mossberg 500 and it was a nice upgrade. I got this one from M-Carbo. You may check and see if they have one for your gun. In my opinion, it was worth the 15-20 minutes to install and cost.
 
Well, I was about to pull the trigger on a kicklite stock as it seemed to have a blend of all the features I wanted.

Add on a new choke, drill/tap, base and my budget was coming in over $200.

Was surfing sportsman's warehouse website for options and noticed the Steven's 301 410. $230. I cannot make my mind ignore the fact that I can buy another gun for the price of rebuilding the 20g.

Someone willing to talk sense into me? I wouldn't even upgrade stocks on the 20g but I need to do everything possible to lessen recoil for her and obviously the 410 in of itself would do that.

**Im hoping I can find some lite weight loads tomorrow so she can shot the 20g this weekend. She started shooting a .223 bolt gun so maybe I'm more concerned with recoil than I should be.

Let her shoot it with 2 3/4" shells and then on hunting day load a 3" and she'll never know if you squeezes the trigger on a bird. That's what I did with my son when he was 8 and he never knew the difference. He'll be 22 next month and don't know if I ever told him. I shot it with the 3" shells to make sure it was dialed in beforehand.

i never let my son shoot a 3" out of his 20 ga single shot before I took him duck hunting the first time. He never felt a thing but rolled over backwards into the bushes

…and he folded that teal
