Thanks, schmeky, that is fascinating! I think you might have a future side gig as a CZ gunsmith! You gotta love out-of-the-box thinking and actually acting on it. Props.

schmeky, What, if any, alterations did you have to make to the slide or bushing to make that work?

Great answer!

What about the horrible overtravel with the stock trigger? Does the Apex reduce overtravel?

I have shot both and prefer the Beretta 1201FP. The Saiga is just too gimmicky and needs too much out of the box. The Beretta will run and run and run, right out of the box, and for years to come. Tom Knapp's Benelli M1 Super90 had over 100,000 rounds through it before he retired it, and the...

I have the exact Choate PG stock that FAS1 has on my 1201FP. I couldn't be happier. It fits me like a glove, much better than the standard factory stock. It also greatly decreases felt recoil. Best $82.50 I've spent in awhile. As far as the Knoxx stock goes, I've tried them on a Mossberg...

I have the Choate PG stock installed on my 1201FP now. MAN, what a difference! I used one of the 1/2" spacers, which cuts about an inch off the original LOP. I took it out and shot some Winchester slugs and S&B 2 3/4" 00 buck and it was actually not bad at all! The fit of the stock was tight...

Well, I ended up contacting Choate, and they still have standard and pistol grip MK5 'adjustable' stocks available for the 1201FP. I ordered the pistol grip version, so hopefully it will all work out when it gets here.

Well, I know nothing about 'fitting' a shotgun to me. I sent out an email to Limbsaver, but am still awaiting a reply. The factory stock on my 1201FP feels long and somewhat awkward to me. So what some of you are saying is that is a major factor in why the gun is punishing me so badly? I...

I got a great deal on the shotgun, so I bought it. I want to like it. I love the reliability and the features, but it does punish me. I have lifted weights for 20 years. I'm 6' and a lean 210 lbs. I can still bench almost 350 and do 225 on the seated barbell press. But I have had a few...

So which pad will fit my gun and which one will make it most comfortable to shoot the heavy slugs? I don't want to be toughened up. I want to be able to enjoy shooting it so I can put more rounds downrange and get better with it.

If I don't end up getting a Limbsaver pad, I'm thinking of getting the Speedfeed IV-S stock. The LOP feels a little long for me with the standard, non-pistol grip stock, and it looks to have more padding on the butt. Thanks for any comments...

I recently picked up a used Beretta 1201FP, with the 20" barrel/rifle sights/standard rifle stock. Shooting birdshot wasn't too bad, but shooting slugs from the bench to test for accuracy really beat me up. It made shooting more pain than fun. I hate to sound like a wuss, but I've shot the...

Thanks for the responses. I hadn't thought about the headspace issue.
