also the 887 is a fine gun but i cant seem to figure out if its truly a good buy or not cause of all the mixed reviews....
any help/opinions/advice would be appreciated...also if anyone has one of these guns in good condition for sale let me know....

Have heard several reports of LEMONS with the Xtrema, from guts falling out to warped barrels. Any gun that has problems after 2 years use is a POS. I would stay away from the Rem Supermag, they are basically a 870 3" gun with the same guts. They will shoot out fast with 3 1/2" running through them. Have run literally cases of 3 1/2" shells through my SBE 1
and my only problems have been 2 broken ejector pins. Used, they are going for $700-$800 which is a bargan. You can also push a fourth shell with the SBE 1
