Started looking for a shotgun for the cabin, at first it was along the lines of a Pardner Pump or RIA M5, but then everyone suggested get a used 870 at a pawn shop or gun shop. This is a great idea because I already have one and am very familiar with it. I started calling around and all the used 870's are around $275... The BRAND NEW 870 at Walmart is $280!
I would grab the Walmart gun, but I've heard Remington's quality has gone done lately. Is there much truth to this or is just non-critical parts. Is a used 870 worth more than a new 870? Also, is the Walmart 870 any different from other 870's?
Any suggestions?
