ChiefO,
I know this doesn't address your question, but I think its worth mentioning.
I purchased a 20ga AYA #2 round body years ago. It had beautiful wood, I shot it well and function was flawlessly. HOWVER, I finally sold it because of what I considered poor execution of the engraving. If you look at the symmetry around the cocking indicators, you will notice that on most #2's the engraving is not centered. It bothered me so bad that to this day when I see an AYA #2 being considered, it is the 1st thing that comes to mind. It has since been replaced with a Garbi 101 which makes me smile every time I look at, and handle it. Do yourself a favor and look the engraving over carefully and make sure you are happy.

Typical #2 engraving for reference.

Just a tidbit to consider.

I agree with Bill D.. If all other aspects of the gun trip your trigger, I would be considerably below 3K on a short stocked 12ga..

YMMV.
