Hi all, I'm pretty much set on picking up a remington 870 (hopefully a used wingmaster, but if I can't find one in good condition locally, I'll get an express). I have a couple of questions (for now) about them.
1) Do the "super magnums" have more parts and/or more problems in general?
2) If I end up with an 870 with a plastic trigger guard/group, will I be able to replace it with metal parts in the future?
3) Is the flex-tab user-intallable, or should I have a gunsmith do it (if it isn't present on the gun to begin with).
I have spent many many hours reading and racking my brain before settling on an 870 (over a mossberg), but I feel I have made the right choice, now I just need to find one and get out and BA/UU/R until it is a part of me. Thanks for all the help.
