Default Stevens 620 takedown

A couple months back I saw a post on another forum that piqued my interest. Someone had found a Stevens 620 and turned it into a riot configured shotgun. I went on Gunbroker and found a 16 gauge 620 in pretty good condition and won it for $175. Once I got it I shortened the barrel to 20 inches and installed a bead. When taken down it fits into a 26 inch pocketed zip case with room to spare for a bandoleer of ammo.

Very nice; some decent wood on that one.

Older and uglier; two chopped 520s:

I presently have that same fiber optic sight on my 620. I have a Model 11 12ga riot configured shotgun that also has that sight on it.

The fiber optic sight works very well, is cheap, and dovetails nicely with my installation skills, much more so than installing a bead.
