I have one of those, Plastic Rem 870, comes out when there's a chance of getting wet / dirty / scratched etc, etc, etc..............................

Ah yes, the old "fugly but functional" shotty. Got a Mossy Maverick with 18 and 28 inch barrels that serves the same purpose.

Jakewire, you looking at the Akkar Churchill 206 model ? Keen to hear what you think if you get one, looks like a good deal.

Yes that's the one, it was the trap gun that caught my eye, very nice wood on the one they have here, but it seems that trap model probably won't be best for me.

Get an adjustable comb fitted & get the stock shortened to fit you, then if its an interchoke gun you should be able to set it up to fit you. Get some washers for under the comb & then just add or remove the washers for changing from skeet, DTL, Trap or Sporting etc.
