Just joined the 870 Club!
I just picked up a Wingmaster 870 TB made in the 1960's from my favorite gunshop. It was gathering dust in the back because another customer asked them to hold it for him over a year ago. That customer never came back and the shop owner forgot about it. When the shop owner found out I was looking for a Wingmaster, he remembered it and decided to sell it to me since the other customer was a total flake. BTW, it's my first shotgun.
It came with a 30" full choke barrel as well as a 26" skeet barrel and is in very nice shape with no rust and only a few minor dings on the wood. It only takes 2 3/4" shells but that's not a big deal to me since I shot a 3" shell once out of an HK and don't really see the need to do it again. The carrier is very shiny (stainless steel?) and all solid, unlike the blued one with a cut-out on my friend's Wingmaster. The action cycles very smoothly, just as I've heard, and the wooden stock has pretty nice grains. I can't wait to try it out at the skeet or trap range (dunno yet which game I am gonna like better).
So, anyone know what the TB stands for? I don't see it in the current Remington catalog and my friend guessed "Trap Barrel" but it's just a guess.
