DoveDeath

I have hunted with two 870's for about 30 years and have bagged deer, rabbit, duck, dove, and quail with it. I naturally am leaning toward the 870 Police BUT having shot a couple of rounds of sporting clays with a rental Nova I really liked it despite my impressions of weak/cheap (e.g. lots of plastic) construction. What are your impressions of a Nova lasting in the long term? I did not take it down/clean so I did not see the internal fit/finish/components. I like the Nova and think the Tactical is just what I want but it seems like it won't last. What say you? I do want to stay with a pump for what it is worth.
