Look at some of the Spanish makers. Aya comes to mind...
I have English Pointers because they don't ever grow up either...

For an inexpensive sideby with a straight stock, look at CZ.

Browning makes some, I have a Citrori with a straight grip, they also make a BPS that has it as well. Remington makes/ did make an 870 and an 1100 that had it not sure about now but I do know you can find them forsale on sites like gunbroker.com

What you didn't mention is if you are looking for a sxs or an over under, or just any gun with a straight grip.

Thanks everyone for the replies so far ! I should have been a little more specific , my mistake .
I would prefer an over/under shotgun . I have a 12 ga Browning Super Light Feather with an english stock that I reall like and have had for quite a few years . I did look into getting another Citori just like it but in 20 ga . Boy have the prices have went up on those Citori's over the years ! The only one I could find with an english stock was like $1800 ! I really wasn't planning on spending that much if I didn't have to .

Try to find a Ruger Red Label with an ES. Compared to other quality guns, resale value is lower.

I would say you need to look at the CZ Bobwhite in 20ga. SxS, English stock, and double triggers....

I picked up an English stock Citori a couple of months ago on Gunbroker for a nice price. Just put 'English' in your serch criteria and keep looking.

I got my 20ga English stock Citori used for about $1200 or so. Love the gun but don't use it anymore because the safety/barrel selector can get stuck in the in between position and the safety won't come off. Happened one too many times in the field and not just to me, though apparently does not happen to all Citori owners. Ruger Red labels also apparently have a similar safety and issue.
