Remington seems to have "hit the crapper" on most of the guns they currently produced including ones that have been around for a long time and been great in the past. My experience with Remington products has been that the quality just isn't there. I don't see how they are still even in business.

I never thought the 870 was that expensive anyway. What market are they trying to go after with the 887?
All of the Remingtons that I own were made in the 70's, so I'm not sure what the quality of an 870 is now.

the 887 is horrible. i can't believe they are trying to reinvent the wheel on this one. the prive point is held solid by the 870 so why try to compete with yourself? the actions are rough and stiff. I've already had guys wanting to trade in there new 887's after they bought them. heck i had a guy trade in a 870 and them the next weekend call me from the duck blind asking if i still had is old gun, he wanted it back.
