What do you guys think of the Remington 870 shotgun? I have heard from a lot of people that this a great gun for the price. I just wanted to hear what you guys thought?

With a normal stock, they're just like any other pump gun, IMO.

Remingtons are excellent shotguns. If you don't own a shotgun, the Remington 870 is a great one to get and will not disappoint you.

The recoil of any shotgun is mainly decided by what type of shell you decide to shoot from it. Different shells are used for different things, have different power, and kick differently. Recoil is not something to worry about, just dive in and do it.

The 870 is a grate gun it has less recoil than a mossberg.

Remington makes grate guns but Remington's ammo is the worst ammunition I have ever used.

It's my choice in currently manufactured pumps. I own three---field gun---riot gun and a 410. I've put the field gun through a lot of abuse duck hunting and haven't had any problems. Killed a lot of rabbits with the 410 over the yrs.

the 870 in my opinion is the best pump gun made. They will go bang every time and for the cost you probably can't get a better shotgun period. Don't get a mossberg, hold them both and feel the difference. Work the action and feel the difference. They are worth the extra few bucks. About 100 i think, but well worth it.
