12 bore to 20 bore adapter

#1 Post by zzr1100 »

Hi folks, I'm trying to get hold of a couple of 20bore adapters so my daughter will be able to use my gun ... I'm struggling to find any in the uk ..
Does anyone know of a uk supplier ?
Failing that does anyone know if I can just order them from the states, or will I have problems doing so ?
Thanks in advance

I would advise against 12 to 20 adapters ... everyone knows what happens is a 20 cartridge is dropped in a 12 barrel and then forgotten ... It is a risk too far. You may claim to be careful, but that is what is said every time it happens.

12 to 16 or 12 to 28 or 12 to .410 maybe but NOT 12 to 20

I've already got a 12 to .410 thanks for the offer there .. The pattern is a bit sparse in the one I've got, also there doesn't seem to be enough recoil to get my o/u to move onto the second barrel ... Might just be my gun that tho ...
