No offence was not trying to Hyjack your thread., I really liked your picture of the 870 and thought that it is a GREAT shotgun. It's not just a nice shotgun, it's a great shotgun. There was just a really good article on the 16ga front page of MicroSoft Edge web page. Great caliber and GREAT PRICE you are asking. People reading your post might think that it would not be for them (a Man) since the wording. There was more 870s made than any other shotgun. Just thought the you putting for "a young kid or wife" it was a short stock and you were excluding full size men. The recoil on a 16ga could be really hefty when using 2 3/4" mags or slugs. I personally like a 16ga, also have several 20ga for dove and turkey and 1100 Mag 12ga for Geese. My wife shoots a 12ga Benelli.
This should be sold fast and I would like to have but already have 1/2 dozen shotguns.
