Christmas money + guns = fun day

I went and bought a new shotgun with my Christmas money. I'm the proud new owner of a Remington 870 Express Super Magnum. I had to get something to go along with my 1977 870 Wingmaster with a 30" full choke barrel.. Now I have interchangeable choke tubes and the ability to shoot 3" and 3.5" shells. Now off to my back yard for a few boxes of shells to get a feel for it...

Why the guns? WHY!!!!

Why not get a good entertaining game instead?
 
This is mainly for duck and waterfowl, with the occasional dove, rabbit, and quail.

It also makes a good short range deer shotgun with 00 buckshot.

The 870 is a great gun. They have always been extremely reliable. Enjoy!

Definitely still on my list.

I inherited by Grandfather's 1977 870 Wingmaster mentioned earlier, and it still shoots as well as the day it was made. It rarely ever jams, and I've never had a single problem with it. Hopefully I'll get the same longevity out of this one!

I enjoy going outside and shooting skeet, duck hunting, etc. Guns are a great tool and this investment could last well beyond my lifespan. No game could ever do the same...

Because going outside and shooting, hikink, walking, jogging and just being OUTSIDE beats sitting on your ass in front of a PC any day of the weekand twice on Tuesdays.

Why sit on your ass staring at a screen all day? WHY!!!
