Jordano has an 870.. But I would stay away from the 887. It feels like a toy.
have shot a 870 all my life untill 2 years ago the second that browning bps touched my hands i had piles of ducks and geese flash before my eyes great gun love the thing take a look at them
If you dont want to break the bank you cant go wrong with an 870, the nova and bps both cost significantly more, if youre goin semiauto most can be had for around the same price when it comes to reputable brands
A SBE is the only way to go!

I personally own 2 SBE's and 2 SBE II's. I also own remingtons, Mossbergs, Brownings, and a Beretta. But I only hunt with my SBE's. Yes, you can say I believe they are bar none, the best! Thats just my

Went to Cabela's in Lacey and they had the 887 Nitro Mag in the camo. I shouldered it and talked with the guy and it felt awesome! it is lighter than my 870 express with a 26" barrel and the 887 has a 28" barrel. it felt amazing. Think I am going with this one when the price was $449. Dont think you can really beat that.
ya I am very fortuneate! I think part of the payment on it will be a Christmas Present from mom and dad, since a poor college kid doesnt have a whole lot of mulah haha but I am thinking this gun will last me a long, long time compared to my 870 express that looks like it is 25 years old and really worn instead of 5 years old... very dissappointed in it.

I shoot probably close to 50 ducks a year and as many geese as possible so a little bit more money and a better investment is something I could really use.

I am looking at a new 870 youth for my daughter, I have always shot Mossberg though, not cause of preference but affordability at the time of purchase. Been good guns so far, but collected a lot of dust the last 5 or 10 years.

Going to the Community college getting my AA currently. Working full time on top of it and scraping pennies. Thank god my parents chipped in and bought me the gun. I shoot well into 100 ducks a year and as many geese as I can get into. That coupled with pheasants, quail, grouse, and chukars I shoot well into 500 rounds easy a year. A good reliable gun is what I needed and they came through. Waterfowl hunting is my absolute passion If you're ever back in town and wanna hunt lemme know, we could hookup and go slay some ducks Sounds like yo ugot a good gun that fits and was right for the price!
