I bought one new and still have it. Shot it a ton. Ran flawlessly.

Made by HOWA?
Since it has been discontinued it might be worth putting away to see if it appreciates. |

I had one and an identical 20
gauge made under another brand name. same problem with both. There is a metal cap on top of the spring with actuates the hammer. I guess it was intially glued on. Eventually the cap on top of the spring will come off. My 12 gauge went full auto as the cap prevented the hammer from locking back so the spring just fired it until it wad empty. I think my 20 just stopped working. My 12 broke the first time I fired it. I hunted with my 20 for years before it broke |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Made by HOWA? Since it has been discontinued it might be worth putting away to see if it appreciates. Doubtful, they don't have the best reputation amongst semi-auto shotguns (even if Japanese manufactured). The piston shock absorber can be problematic, they tend to melt/degrade over time and gum up the gas piston. That being said, they are replaceable (and available), so I no reason not to clean it up and try it out. One of the local shops has one with a 23" ported barrel that I have been eye-balling, but haven't committed to yet. |

Your Total Cost in it is Zero Point Zero ?
Try it out and see if you like it. It will be 2 3/4" only most likely and have a fixed choke, but will still kill a lot of birds or clays if you do your part. Bigger_Hammer
