i hate remington shotguns though they make great rifles but i just hate their shotguns its just something about benelli and beretta that puts them over the top for me. but i seen 870's missfire and im not lookin to shoot my face off. but there is lemons for every kind of gun maybe i just seen to bad ones idk.
I would go Benelli all the way. I have an M2 and absolutely love the gun. Go w/ the M2 or SBE, you won't be sorry. And like other people have said, its really easy to clean them too. Less moving parts = less likely for something to break.
I have a Benelli M2 and I picked up a Browning Silver in the Mossy Oak Duck Blind Camo... Im definitely partial to my Browning. Both are auto, but I can really unload with the Browning with not alot of kick.

I have an 870 3-1/2 waterfowler special, also have an SBEII. I didn't need the SBEII, but bought it anyway. It's definitely easier to get the 3rd shot off with the SBE.
