In reply to:
Yes...the old 870's were the standard of the industry here for many years
I TOTALLY disagree. at no time in all of history has the 870 been a better gun than the Winchester Model 12...
its funny, my father-in-law has 4 870s, 3 1100s, an Auto5 and a few .22s, the 20ga 100 gets shot once or twice a year.
my dad's model 12s (the two that aren't collector's pieces) have both seens ~100,000+ rounds through the chambers and are absolutely "better" guns in every regard (save cosmetics).
...just my $0.02
