I would be proud to add a third 870 to my collection. If I win this sweepstakes, I can hang this one on the wall while I'm using the other two.

I am glad I read the offical Rules, it really sucks that FL, NY, and RI residents can not enter. I am from NY and that just ruined my day. I guess I need to switch my residency to NC before the contest is over.

You should have switched your residency a long time ago. About the time Carpetbagging Hillary came to town........

It might take some time getting used to a new 870. My 20 gauge Wingmaster is broken in just right, being a hand-me-down from my grandfather and older than I am....

ckRich,

I had a 20ga. Wingmaster LW. Sweet Sweet Sweet little gun. I bought it new for my son before he was born. It was stolen. I went to replace it and the new Wingmasters are just not the same.

buckhunter,
It is a sweet gun and I'll never get rid of it. I can hear the snickers in the background when I pull it out at the trap range, but they fade quickly when it busts the same clays as their high-combed, fancy single-shot 12 gauges.

I've got a couple of older ones that I won't let go of. I'll never live long enough to wear one out! Granted, I have an autoloader that I use from time to time, but the 870 shoots trap, kills birds from starlings to turkeys, and defends the home. I went for about 20 years with only 870's in the field. Never a malfunction, never a problem. That's why they have made 10 million of them. Who can top that except the AK-47?
