Seller whips out a consolation prize...

I'd take that over a M21 any day.

The 20 gauge Superposed guns made in the 1950s (I think was introduced around '49) are my favorites. I have owned quite a number of them, currently do not have one, but those 50s guns in that gauge still have a special spot for me. They are more sleek and lithe than the later guns, especially the forearm.

My brand new 1949 20 gauge Super, #605, 28" modified and full, is a treasure, with the original dark stock finish and original horn buttplate. I don't know if it has been fired, but I certainly have not fired it. These are the Supers we should be watching for. Watch the obituaries.
