I asked a while back about HD utility of the 3" magnum vs the 3.5" magnum.
Thats not what I'm asking now.
Here is my current question (brought to the forefront of my fevered thoughts after looking at all the nice shotguns all in a row at the local gunstore):
How reliable/durable is the 870 Super Mag, as compared to the standard, garden variety 870 express magnum?
I'm aware that the 870 is the Energizer Bunny of shotgundom. Heck, I've had a 870 Wingmaster for almost 15 (gasp! 15?!?!?) years now, and its as solid now as day 1. Is the latest iteration of the 870 line as good as the older versions?
