I bought an 835 until Rem came out with their 870 Super Mag. My 835 would not eject the fired 3.5 " hulls. I contacted Mossberg and they said it was most likely a rough chamber and they would either polish it or put a nre barrell on it. They had me send it to them and the turn around was extremely quickwith a brand new barrell on it no charge and no more problems. My 835 once the ejection problem was fixed was a decent turkey gun but the Rem 870 super mag is much better is why I got rid of it but the customer service Ireceived was very good from them.
