Hey fellas, thinkin about gettin Quackhead a new gun for #16 B-day.
He really likes that new Rem 887 nitro mag.

Got any ,advice, experiences,general opinions on this shootgun?
He`s been shootin my old 870 for the last few years.

yeah i got an opinion. ITS BAD ARSE! Very durable and a fine shotgun

they dont use that finish on the autos do they?

I bought one this past xmas and really like it. It's light, not much kick. Some people have had issues with the 1st runs, but mine hasn't had any issues. Hunted pouldue 3 times and shot 5-6 boxes through it. Cleaned it a bit after every hunt. Really easy to take apart.

Bad part, they are hard to find. Academy here in Houma hasn't had any since xmas and I bought the last one then. 2 of them were sold in 10mins. Talked to a duck hunter buyin the other one at the time I did and they said all thier friends were buying them.

cabelas has them on thier site but you will have to call them to see if they have them in stock.

My brother is also buying one soon after shooting mine a few times.

Cabela's out in Gonzales has them - I happen to be in there last night.

I'm not too impressed with the gun from handling it, but I have never hunted/shot one so don't take my opinion too far.

I have it and the beneli nova. Both of which I call my betch guns. I throw them aroud the boat all the time.
