![]() ![]() But there are some key selling features that Remington failed to mention, which deserve some recognition.Ī two-piece rotating bolt is used in the M887 which helps reduce size and weight but can take the same amount of punishment as the standard solid bolt on the 870. This boom stick’s main selling features include the ability to shoot 2 3/4, and 3½ 12 gauge shells and the ArmorLokt polymer molding that surrounds the entire shotgun to prevent rust and corrosion. It was designed for the extreme conditions that a shotgun goes through while hunting waterfowl and other large game. Other than the overall shape being similar to the 870 and both being 12 gauge pump actions, the M887 is a completely different shotgun. I was surprised to find out the M887 is nowhere near the 870! 870 based, eh? ![]() This sounded good to me so I went out and bought one for myself. Out of curiosity, I started doing a little research online and found Remington had originally stated that the M887 is “based off” of the legendary 870. This made me wonder if anyone had even heard of this boom stick before or if they just kept it in the “piece of crap” section of their mind next to the Ford Pinto. When I asked fellow gun enthusiastic friends to name the first shotgun that came to mind, the majority responded with “Remington 870”. Not one mentioned the Remington M887 NitroMag.
