Hi,
I was looking at an 870 express today for duck hunting... this particular remington 'featured' the j lock on a plastic trigger housing.
The store 'Dick's Sporting Goods' didn't haven any Wingmasters to view. I bought a 28 gauge Wingmaster last year (while still in Mississippi) and it has the lawyer lock but a nicely fitted (I think aluminum) trigger group.
I thought Remington quit putting the lock on their shotguns....
So...is the j-lock still on their guns? Or is this surplus still in the store?
Is the express trigger group plastic? I know that the 870 has a long track record of relaible service...but that was before their refurbishment with plastic parts...
Any info would be helpful, as well as a reliable new/used gun store in the Indian Head, Maryland area.
V/R,
LW
