I just picked up a Remington 870 Express Super Magnum, black synthetic, 26in vent rib for 240 at Bradis guns! Great deal seeing as it accepts all loads, 2 3/4 in, 3 in, 3 1/2 in! They are great guns. I'm customizing mine for the up coming turkey season. I may hunt deer with it but I'll stick to my Marlin 1894C .357 Mag and let my buddy use it if he needs a gun. But yes go for the Remington great starter gun!
