I sure would have that slip on recoil pad were I using a 20ga Repro. For whatever reason, mine seems to be the hardest recoiling S/S I have, even using handloaded target loads. I've seen a few impressive pics of purple shoulders from the shooting down there. I figure my 28" vh20 would be what I'd take, or maybe a 28" 28ga Repro. And I'd sure take along the Brownell screw drivers I need to dismantle whatever Parker I took. A good friend went down some years back and, after 4 days of shooting and 5500 birds bagged, the only gun still 100% functional was his 97yr old LC Smith 20 ga that he had restored and restocked. All the Winchesters, Benellis, etc were malfunctioning somehow. I've been told that some of the outfitters down there stock Citoris as backup/loaner guns and that they hold up well.
