Thanks folks. That's what I figured. The ones around here are going for about $900 or so as well. He wanted $710 for it, so low and behold it followed me home. Just in time for the OH bulletfest!
It's in great shape. The only fininsh wear is on the sharp edges of the front sight. The ghost rign sights are way cool! Black plastic non-PG stock, short barrel. It came with a mag extension also, that I need to put on and five different chokes. Full, mod, Cyl, something else, and a special buckshot choke the guy had specially made for him up in Richmond. Manual and all the little things like stock adjusment spacers, way cool choke wrench, and mag plugs for both length tubes. No box, but I would have probably figured out a way of destroying that anyway. He even threw in five rounds of slugs and five of buckshot.
What I wanted was one shotgun that would be able to handle all my needs with, and I think this comes about as close as I'm going to get. I'll probably keep my 870, since it has the factory LEO top folding stock on it and fills the specialty job of "compactness" quite well.
I've always sucked at shotgun, simply because I don't have much experience with one. I've had them off and on, and shot skeet, etc. I always had fun with them, but I just never spent the time to really train with one. Of all the shotguns I've handled though, I really like this one. I think I've found a shotgun I can really get into.
