870 Express combo. I found one, new in box, at a dealer's table at a gun show. This one had a matte finished American walnut stocks on it. The butt stock has a small area of walnut stained sap wood at the toe so I think it may have been a second from another model. In any case, it is factory original and has mellowed the way walnut stocks do when well used.

I do know that the reason I like it over my Wingmaster is mostly psychological though. I do hit what I aim at with it so confidence plays a role. The 870 is with me for deer and fowl. A bit of boiled linseed oil on scratches and all is well with the world, that and a beefed up mag spring to end deer slug recoil feeding malfunctions (at the range).
