Figured out an issue with installing the 20 gauge shell stop latch. You can not use the M1014/M4 follower; a M2 follower or similar must be used. Works 100% now.

Yep, the hinged 20ga latch holds the shell just a bit father forward than a 12 ga latch (and can contact some followers)...and don't try to drill & tap the 20ga latch for an oversize release button.

Why can't you drill and tap it?

The button on the 20ga latch is pressed fit. Meaning it free spins. As a single round button, it doesn’t matter which direction it’s pointing. But once you try and attach an oversized button that needs to stay in a fixed position. That’s when you see the problem. I should’ve read the forums before installing. Lesson learned!
 

Trying to figure a way to stop it from spinning, I just haven’t had the time recently.
