I have two. IMHO the greatest gun going for general use. Visit the rec.hunting and rec.hunting.dogs FAQ Home Page at: http://sportsmansweb.com/hunting/ To leave the Hunting listserv list, send a message with SIGNOFF HUNTING

My 870 is of 1965 vintage. Never a problem, and although its worn and shows some rust (I carried it in the trunk of my car for years … spilled window-wash fluid works good at removing bluing!) I still use it to this day. Very accurate, very reliable gun. Mine is a 28" modified, and have used it to bust many pheasants, rabbits, clay targets, and even one deer. I’m thinking of buying a slug-only barrel for the gun, to put a scope on & use as a short-range deer-slayer. (Deer in NC where I hunt are up-close and personal. 50 yds max.) The 870 is a good choice for all-around shootin.. Good luck to you!

Response:
for the price probably the best gun ever made. I would suggest a combo set with rifled barrel and 28 inch smooth bore. Visit the rec.hunting and rec.hunting.dogs FAQ Home Page at: http://sportsmansweb.com/hunting/ To leave the Hunting listserv list, send a message with SIGNOFF HUNTING

I’m gonna have to agree! In my oppinion and experience, the 870 is the best pump for the buck. I like the new one, the Express Super Magnum Synthetic. I friend from work just got one and he loves it. It can shoot 2 3/4", 3", and 3 1/2" shells. http://www.remington.com Good luck!

I have an 870 Express Magnum with the black synthetic stock. This gun is reliable, inexpensive, and tough. I’d recommend one to anyone that is on a limited budget and needs an all purpose shotgun.

I still use it to this day. Rust is the biggest problem I have with these guns. They seem more pron then most to rust. Just a surface thing, but something to beware of. Take care of it, be sure to oil it, and keep the humidity right, and it whould be a good gun. I don’t own one, but I’ve borrowed friends several times for hunting, and I like it. : The 870 is a good choice for all-around shootin.. Agreed. A good gun. Now if only the left handed model wasn’t more. — http://blugill.home.ml.org/ Visit the rec.hunting and rec.hunting.dogs FAQ Home Page at: http://sportsmansweb.com/hunting/ To leave the Hunting listserv list, send a message with SIGNOFF HUNTING
