dagrizz Posted April 12, 2005 Share Posted April 12, 2005 Originally posted by tucker301: quote: the 870 is a **** of a lot cheaper Truer words were never written. [/QB]It seems that the general consensus is that the Nova is a better gun than the 870 Express. That may be. But what about the 870 Wingmaster. I have one of those that is over 30 years old and still going strong. I would not trade it for any thing. Now back to the Nova. With all of the comments to date about it, I wonder how it will be perceived 30 years from now? If it will still be in production in the same form so that those 30 year old guns can get repair parts if they ever wear out. That will be the judge, jury and executioner for this gun. I wish it well as the new 870. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tucker301 Posted April 12, 2005 Share Posted April 12, 2005 In 30 years I'll be 76, but I'll try to remember to check back here for the update. I'll also try to remember my name, where I live, where I parked my car, and to turn off my left blinker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Gun_Guy Posted April 14, 2005 Share Posted April 14, 2005 First of all the 870 is twenty bucks cheaper than a nova and if your spending 300$ twenty bucks is not evan icing on the cake and IN 30 years there will be no atmosphere and all the Gamma radiation from the sun is not going to be filtered and were either giong to start sprouting tumers or be turning into wolfmen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
