No love for the 11-87?
It looks like I'm getting it for $200, but it has a broken ring under the stock. I looked up a drawing on the Brownells website and found that it's one of two parts, I can't tell which one, but they cost about $10 each so it's not a big deal anyway.
So I'll get it running, drop in an Easeloader from Dave's Metalworks, extended mag tube and maybe cut the barrel back to 24" and tapped for a choke. All told I should be into the gun less than $500, maybe closer to $300
Gun- $200
Mag tube- $75
Parts- $20 (likely $10)
Easyloader- $35
Choke tubes installed- $150?
Total - $330 without modifications to the barrel, $480 with mods.
That should get me going long enough to decide if that's what I want to run for a while, and the total cost is pretty similar to what I've got into my 590. this might be an excersize in frutstration, but life has been too easy anyway.
