They aint cheap, but they're super nice! I'd love to be able to own one, but right now I only have a smith&wesson pump and an 870 pump. Used the 870 maybe twice, went to clean and lube last winter and couldn't even slide it! The stock had swollen so much that it wouldn't even budge. The store I bought it from had since closed it's doors, and the warranty had run out. Haven't touched it since, probably won't touch it after it starts gettin wet cause I know I'll probably break it outa frustration. I need a synthetic stock!
an cwa edition 870 my dad won at a dinner is what gun i used, abused and finally wore out last season but its getting "rebuilt" right now and should be good to go soon. My old boss was having lots of problems with the wood swelling on his 870 in heavy rains but mine never had a problem even when i dropped it to the bottom of 6 feet of salt water last season.
tom w. the new england firearms shotguns are great that was the gun that got me into hunting and what I shot my first thing ever with. A band tailed pigeon when I was 7.
