We just got our first shipment of 870's. Overall they look well made. Especially the machining of the breech and barrel extension. There was a good bit of trouble with the previous product. There is also evidence that each gun was test fired, which is a big change. They work slick like the old ones.

Were these Wingmasters or the abomination called the Express?

Wingmasters. I don't believe they have plans to re-make the Express; Thank God! Critical spares would be appreciated though. Edit:They do show the Express on their website.

Ya' some spares,,,,, like gas piston assemblies for the 1100/1187 series, all gauges. My supply is dwindling!

Good news, Bob. Thanks!

Thanks for letting us know. I'm anxious to see Remington stand back up. I'm also interested in if/when you see 700's, 750's, and 7600's in production again if you don't mind posting.

I saw some 870 express at Scheels a month ago. I assumed they were current production. But maybe they were not. They were $399. Wood to metal fit was poor.

Bring back the 1911R1 Hunter please!
