Hi all,
Let me start out by saying that I'm new to shotguns(as well as 1911's but that's another story). I'm thinking of getting a shotgun for HD. From what I've been able to gather from my buds and following this forum pretty much everyone agrees that the Remington 870 is THE model to get. Ok, I'll go with the majority opinion, besides I really liked the few I've handled at the gun shops around me.
With all that said. I'm now looking at several options.
1. Get a used 870 and send it off to Scattergun.
2. Buy their Border model directly from them.
3. Whichever of the above options I go with should I send it off to VangComp for a barrel job.
Speaking of VangComp all of my knowledge about them comes from various threads on this forum and their website so why would it be a good idea for me to get send it off to them?
Of course being the "cheap" and cautious muldoon that I am I'm definitely keeping all of my options open. Any of your suggestions would be very welcome. Feel free to expand on my questions if you wish.
Thanks
Pete
