New 870 Police Quality?

[Allist816]

I would like to pick up a 870 Police Mag next month but I have been reading from this forum and others that Remington has let their QC go down hill, even with the Police mags. I read people had problems with theirs before they even shot them. Like parts breaking and problems with feeding and cycling. I don't mind paying the somewhat high price for one of these, I just want to know if I can count on it when I want or need to shoot it. So what's the deal. Are they high quality or should I look for something else?

Where exactly did you read this stuff about the 870 Police?

Odd that you would read that about an 870P, it's the most popular LEO shotgun in the US by a wiiiiide margin.

There were some reports of a particular brand of cheap shells sticking in some Express chambers. I think the reports are exaggerated. I have an 870 Express and it's been flawless. The 870P is an awesome weapon. buy it and don't look back

I have a 7 year old 870P, out of the box it was servicable but if I had to do it over again I would have went with an older Wingmaster hands down.
