Pretty bad when 99% of the gunsmiths can take YOUR parts a build a better gun. You'd think with all the free research and development (meaning available custom rifles) they might learn something.
Theres absolutely nothin wrong with an 870. They are a moderate priced quality piece of equipment for the working man. In these times we are gonna see things get cheaper and cheaper anyway. The 870 wasnt made to be pretty more like ruggedly handsome. Ive owned two and they are virtually indestructible plus great shooters.

BTW let me guess you own a Benelli?
