Remmington 870HD. Cheap, effective.



He also dumped a couple of nice bullfighting posters too:

What the hell is HD?, I have a 870 Express, nice gun and shoots straight enough.
Is yours a magnum? I'm guessing so, but not sure. Well have fun with it and dont shoot Remington slugs, they suck. Also is it rifled? I dont know what your desired use is, but just so you know (which you probably do) you dont have to shoot sabot slugs if its rifled, I use them, but its not totally necessary.
And one more thing, if its magnum only 4 3" shells can get in the gun (3 in magazine tube) And it is a pain to get the jammed one out if you put a 5th in. Especially in the middle of the woods with cold fingers.

I'd put that in the front trunk of your 996 TT, doubles as an STB

HD = home defense (sometimes referred to as a camp gun), 18.5 inch barrel. It is essentially the tactical police issue weapon minus the easy ability to add capacity.

I just wanted something to dink around with in the country that was easier to carry on a backpack.

I love those vintage looking posters!!!! I am a huge collector of posters of that style. I especially like old retro advertising posters.

How big are those ones?

Around 4X2. There is no real standard size. I've been collecting them for a while now. Usually pick up a few when I am in Spain. You can find them, up to 40 years old for under 10 bucks in the right places. My favorite is the 1980 poster pictured in this thread.


Framing of course is an additional 2-500.
