You could have it looked at after a 2 - 3 hundred rounds, I suppose; someone experienced with 870s should be able to go through it for common problems pretty quickly. But if the gun isn't having any issues at that point, I don't think you really need to have a professional look at it. The 870 is a pretty straightforward design; when it works, it works. Defects can and do happen sometimes, as with anything made by mortal hands, but anything that will cause problems should show itself during break-in.yotefan2 wrote:Have another question since I bought two months ago I was wondering how many rounds before I take it in for a look over for any problems. I understand the 870 is a kickass shotgun guess I might be over cautious.
This is one reason I recommend folks get some good trigger time and break their shotgun in before going nuts with add-ons & aftermarket parts. It lets you ensure that the gun itself is working properly before you start messing with it.
