hello danny i would hope that at 20 gague isn`t to much for you. what i was saying is that a lot of pepole go out and buy the biggest rifle or shotgun that they can get thinking that they will be the big guy of the block just to find out that they cannont stand to fire the weapon then it is off to there local gun shop to buy some type of recoil reduceing device. i have shot 2/34 12g. atsporting clay matchesuntill my shoulder/arm felt like *ell but that is what i took into the match. what i`m tring to state is that 99% of the folks that buy a recoil device may it be a slip on pad or a muzzle break should have looked into what they were going to use the firearm for. just my .02 cents
