I have the chance to get an H & R 1871 Pardner pump 12 GA used for $180. Looks a bit rough but the pump is smooth. Decent shotty or pass it by? Thank you!
They aren't pretty, and they are heavier than need be, but they are very reliable, and many, though not all aftermarket options for 870s will work with the Pardner.
My old man has one of those hawk industries china guns. His is branded as a new england rather than H&R. It has a shorter barrel than my 870 Wingmaster but somehow feels twice as heavy. Reliable and durable gun
