I have a 3&1/2 Mag, a 16 ga. with three barrels that I have owned for 45 years and a 28 ga. with a skeet choke that my boys seldom let me use because they're usually borrowing it for grouse, doves, rabbits, etc. I've owned several other shotguns over the years, but I always seem to grab one of the 870,s first. My sons own an additional five or six 870,s in various forms.

Wingmaster Lightweight 20ga purchased in 1980 or so.

870 Express 28ga purchased 2001.

Both are great grouse guns. I have had the pleasure to shoot a lot of pheasants and a few ducks with the 20.

Our daughter who is 16 years old just took over the 28 gauge. She tells me it is now her gun after the success she had with it last fall. I am only too happy to oblige. I think the 870 tradition will carry on for long time in our family grin.gif

My Dad took me to the old Golden Valley Gun when I was 13 and had saved $100. Bought a 2.75" off the used rack for $99. I am now 45 and still own it. Retro'd with a 28" v-ribbed Remchoke barrel when steel shot became law. Still use for pheasants and grouse as I had to get a 10 ga. for the waterfowl before 3.5" 12 ga. was on the market. You can actually chamber a shell with one arm with this old dog. SMOOTH and DEPENDABLE is all I can say.
