Yeah well, if I'm going to spend $1500 on a shotgun I'm getting a Benelli.

Not surprising since they are built on Remington base guns. Maybe once Remington has the 870 back in production they will bring them back.

They'll probably still build on a supplied gun. If whoever takes over the 870's builds a decent gun I am sure they will offer them again.

Quote HistoryQuoted: Yeah well, if I'm going to spend $1500 on a shotgun I'm getting a Benelli. This or a Beretta 1301 Tactical! I have Remy's, Mossberg's, Winchester's, a Beretta, a Franchi and Benelli's. If I must have a pump it would be the 870"P" (I have one of these and it is nice!) followed by the Mossberg 590A1 (I don't care for the fore stock wobble..). For Autos, it would be the M4, Beretta Tactical 1301, Benelli M2. Just my $0.02. D |

SGT was pretty much dead when Wilson bought them.
I remember when they were still in Nashville and had well over a dozen models of kick-ass 870s and 1187s. |

When I was a kid(15ish) I sent them a email asking about fixing my 870 up. The guy who replied said he would do it gratis and I should look up what that meant  Never did send it in and I regret it

Remember when they opened shop and they had the $149 deal where you sent in your worn out 870 and they'd chop the barrel to whatever length you wanted, install a new sight, replace all of the springs and follower, reparkerize it and install a Speedfeed stock and forearm? Pepperidge Farms remembers. I used it in 3 gun a couple of times before I moved overseas-I just realized I haven't shot a formal competition in over ten years now. Times flies. |

I remember buying from them when they were located in Nashville. I just realized how long ago that was.
