Mossberg, the finish on the new remingtons is garbage and overall quality is halfassed

Used Remington 870 for about $200-300...............Unlike the Mossberg it will last for many many more decades

We use the Mossberg 590A1. I like it and bought one for myself.
Remington, Mossberg, Winchester are all good. I prefer the Mossberg.

Re: New Production: 870 or 500
I prefer the 870 even though my first "real" shotgun was a 500.
In terms of Current Production Manufacturing Quality I would recommend a Mossberg.
Nothing to with controls, function, ability to accessorize, etc. Just production quality.

Re: New Production: 870 or 500
I used to have both 500s and 870s. I somehow gravitated to the Mossberg line and sold off the 870s. Recently I got a used 870 police model; somehow, even after a complete strip down:cleaning:lube, I just didn't like the way the slide felt. So now I've sold it and am back to just a couple of 500s. Looking to buy one more 500.

I'm also a 500 fan. I haven't had any issue that would make me switch teams, and I prefer the tang safety over the trigger guard cross bolt safety.
