[QUOTE="Sanjuro82, post: 1703824, member: 14058"] Minus the furniture I don't want any plastic on my shotgun! That plastic trigger guard on the new production 870s isn't there because it's an improvement over the steel ones on the older Wingmasters. That plastic trigger guard is a cost savings plain and simple. Just like the terrible decision to use MIM parts for the extractor and ejector. And I personally have seen a plastic trigger guard break (Mossberg 500, I have now sold that shotgun to my brother), they just don't hold up to hard use. My home defense shotgun isn't just a weapon that rest near the bed. I use mine, and I use them a lot. I train with them, I run and gun with them, etc... I shoot a lot of 12 ga, and feel the shotgun is probably the most versatile weapon around. If the SHTF a shotgun will at the ready at my home! Just like my AMD-65, my shotgun has to be rugged. I don't want a trigger guard, or plastic safety, or a MIM extractor failing when I need it to function. IMO the Noricos are just better built than the new production Mossy 500 or the 870s. It's sad but it's true. [/QUOTE]
