870 Express or Tactical

Post by gWebber »

One thing that really sucks about being in norther California is not being able to find a low cost 870 new or used for a reasonable price. I’m in several groups and people talk about finding a 870 for 150, 250, 300. Here in California near any 870 I’ve seen is 500 or more IF you even see one.

I have a project in mind I’d like to do if I can find a new or used one at a good price.

I’m wondering if there’s a way to have some people shop around as they do normally and if they spot one somehow make the arrangements to ship to my local FFL.

I’d don’t know, just tossing around ideas, finding info, etc.

If you want to buy from out of state I'd suggest you find a local FFL to ship it to first. Find out their fees and what conditions they want for a firearm shipped to them. Lots are picky, might have excessive fees or just a pain in the azz to deal with. That "bargain" from out of state might not be worth the cost or hassle.

Used to be a internet dealer in used police trade-ins that had some decent prices. I forgot the business name :oops: and a brief google didn't turn up anything familiar. They can be bargains as cosmetically they are beat but mechanically fine and fired very little.

My local FFL (gun shop) is pretty awesome and they charge $65 which is pretty fair. So I just need to figure out the other end.

Thanks, but I’m looking for something pretty basic.
