Remington 870: ‘I love this gun’

November 29, 2011 By Kathy Shaidle

Me too, although my model is considerably less menacing (to look at) than Mike’s…

That’s why I’ve bought several of them. I like the 870 express tactical the best. It really is ideal for home defense because it is so safe. Generally, all you have to do is rack the pump once and the intruder leaves the premises. The sound of a pump shotgun is unmistakable. All you have left to do is clean the burglar poop off the floor afterwards.

Not everyone agrees with that, of course.

I can tell by sight (short barrels) that some of his other recommendations, like the Taurus Judge, are classified as “prohibited” in Canada. Too bad, because

The Judge gives an option of firing either 45 Long Colt ammunition or .410 shotgun ammunition. (…) The lethal impact of the 410 dissipates rapidly. Hence, I would feel more comfortable squeezing off a round in the middle of traffic than I would with the 45 Long Colt option.
