The Devil is after me...again!

I was in Walmart last week and saw a new Remington 870 (matte) with vent rib, screw-in choke, and black synthetic stock. Man, that's a good looking gun! I'm having trouble getting it out of my mind (get thee behind me, Devil). Though I need it like a lefthanded monkey wrench, I just may have to add that one to the toy box.

I didn't notice, but I think it was the 3" mag receiver too.

Heaven help me...

    If guns are evil the Devil ain't so bad..Buy it now or put it on layaway before someone else buy's it...Worse thing is walking into a gunshop and they don't have what you want in stock.

    Let's change the laws and quit bickering about them. One man CAN change the status quo.

    Why would you buy a brand new 870? In 3" magnum? Come on at least get a 3 1/2! If your gonna buy a new one at least get the biggest one! Otherwise you're wasting your money. There are a ton of 870's on the used market, doesn't make much sense to me to buy a new one.

    Rafter, wal-mart layaway, 10% down, 60 days to take it out...just do it. you can never have too many guns.

    do the math...$25 down and only $3.75 a day will help adopt this gun. For the price of a (very expensive) cup of coffee, you can give this poor lonely gun a new home.

    Go for it Rafter- at that price I'd buy two. There's safety in numbers, especially those numbers.

    Ohhhhh, Devil. Don't make my pickup turn into Walmart. Devil, leave my steering wheel alone. Take your hands off me! Get away, Devil!

    I'll tell ya rafter, I got the 3 1/2mag 870 Express. Only criticism is that mat plastic finish doesn't lend itself to smooth pumping of the action. But $250 aint a bad price and think of all them aftermarket products you can get for it! Magazine tube extensions, side sadles, & folding stocks. Mmmmm 870.

    Rafter, after you get the gun you can blast that sumbi%@# away with a 3" slug.
