Greetings!
I have been contemplating the purchase of a new shotgun for a while now, and was thinking of a pump action 870 Express. Here recently, Remington released the 887 Nitro Mag. I like the look of this gun as well as the feel and the handling. It certainly looks to be a tough and reliable hunting piece, plus it is reasonably priced. I have read the specs of this firearm and believe it to be a very worth while investment. However, I have found no reviews on it as of yet. Has anybody purchased/used one of these shotguns? If so, how well does it shoot? Is the recoil as light as it should be? Do you like the placement and feel of the release? How does the trigger feel? The way I understand it, the gun is easy to take apart and reassemble, perhaps more so than an 870. Is this true? Any information you can give me will be appreciated. I will continue searching for official reviews, and will look into some personal reviews on this shotgun, but I would love to get some Lurker feedback on this. Thanks.

R.I.P. Pete! I can't believe you're gone.
