Maybe the 12 gauge Mossbergs are better
But I had a 20 gauge Mossberg pretty much fall apart and had to rebuild it - was not impressed with the innards. I guess it fatigued sitting loaded in the safe. I really had not fired it much. I had to replace the lifters and the trigger/ hammer group. The hammer appeared to be sintered metal and just broke in two.

- I'd put my 37 riot in the same category as the 870. - MR, 2014-07-23, 10:12
