Any thoughts, experiences, insights into barrel length would be appreciated. I need to make the exchange tomorrow if I do.

The difference in handling between an 18.5" and 20" barrel is probably negligible, although some people might say the 18.5" is better for home defense, since it's a tad bit more maneuverable in close quarters situations.
As I said, you can just by an additional barrel (they're pretty easy to change on Mossberg shotguns) for around $80, and then have both available.
Good luck.
