I've never seen one of the straight stock Miroku 500 shotguns, but after seeing yours I searched a couple of the big used gun sites and I see quite a few currently listed. I guess they are coming in for overseas with those huge shipments of guns that Cabelas and others are bringing in.

Going to have to keep my eyes peeled for a 20

My BSS Sporter 12 gauge is my go to waterfowl gun. I pretty much feed it everything but large steel like BB and BBB. I opened up the full choke to accommodate the harder shot. It may be isn't a 21 but they are built to be a work horse in my opinion. These light weight versions coming up for sale are intriguing for a good upland carrying gun.
