i brought home a Remington 870 Express pump

[TXDMERC73]

I just bought a Remington 870 Express pump shotgun today i traded my .32 acp beretta in plus little bit of cash . I wasnt too happy with the .32 acp all it did was sit in the bottom of my gun safe collecting dust,cuz everyone was saying it is under-gunned ,so i decided to get my Hunting license today at wally world and am gonna fire the 870 tomorrow morning before i head out for some small game huntin. I always wanted an 870 for a long time, i just had a hard time deciding to get rid of my little beretta for it , i hope the 870 will pay off and not give me a headache tmw!

they are truely a great shotty. Some of the new ones have had unfinnished chambers or burrs. if your ammo has a hard time with loading / ejecting look into that first. It usually can be corrected with steelwool and a doll rod connected to a drill.

have fun with your proven shotty

My 870 is the most reliable shotgun I own. I swear I could use it as a paddle to row up the Susquehanna River, pull it out of the water and it’ll still fire. Good choice!

I'm still using a 870 Wingmaster I bought 33 years ago. Does that tell you something about the 870? I mostly use one of the side-by-sides or O/U's, but the Wingmaster still comes out of the gun cabinet for some hunting from time to time.

1. I can almost guarantee you that all the people who say a .32 acp is under powered have never shot anyone or have never seen anyone get shot.

2. The Remington 870 and the Mossberg 500 are the 302 small block and 350 small block of shotguns(or vis-versa depending on if your a ford or chevy guy). You'll be very happy.
