my dad got a 20 gauge semi auto that was not taken care of at all it would not feed and the front stock was cracked real bad it was a1400 winchester he gifted it to me a few years ago and i never did a thing with it till about a week ago turns out it has never been cleaned after a good clean

Ahh...
Wow...that bought back memories, then i drifted off into a brief daydream...

There i was walking inside the mallee lined perimeter of a freshly headed paddock at first light with every pocket full of field loads of No4's.
Im really tired from being out till 3 spotlighting, but i quickly sharpen up when i hear the rustle of stubble & see a grey flash accross my path, then a second grey flash...boom boom......
...boom...
Then another rustle & grey critter scrambling to safety....boom...
It took the first shot to wake up but i nailed all three cleanly without having to reload...

Thats when i came back to reality to realise in that scenario today, id have only dropped one of those bunnies...
And i only drop 2 pigeons out the farmers shed at first light instead of 5...
Fair dinkum how did we let this happen i sigh to myself...!!!
Stoopid govt.

Dam i want one...!!!

Good luck to ya wrenchman...

the one thing that gets alot of guys about this gun is it will only hold 3 rounds and is fine becouse some of the things i hunt i am only allowed 3 rounds and guns have to have a plug so they wont hold more.
you guys most likely seen a few of these they were makeing them in the 70s and 80s and 1994 was the last year they were made.

Unfortunately a lot of people who started shooting after 96 would never have had the opportunity!!!
