Default Any 1100 fans?

I couldn't resist, in light of the current 870 thread.

Although I'm an 870 nut, I also have 2 1100s



Both of these I inherited from a very dear uncle who passed away. The 12 (on the right) is mine, the 20 technically belongs to my son. My uncle passed away when my son was 5. His daughters (my cousins) gave me the 12. I asked if I could buy the 20 for Matthew. They refused any money, and insisted I just take it and put it away for him until he was old enough (He's 25 now. In just a few more years I'm sure he'll be old enough...) Just kidding.

Incidentally, that 20 is the old 20 gauge LW, not the current LT20. The LW was the first lightweight 20. It takes a uniqu barrel with a short extension like the 870. Barrels are VERY hard to find for it, and $$$ when you do. I still have the original 26" VR IC barrel, plus the 28" VR barrel with after market screw ins I picked up for it.
