MasterBlaster, I agree with you that the Winchester action beats out the 870. If you are a wingshooter I think that may be the deciding factor for you. After 33 yrs. of use my 1200 never ceases to amaze me with it's smooth action that even last season dropped a double on chuckar with a swing shot from left to right that seemed effortless. Since I'm accustomed of late to hunting with a Citori ( my son was using it that day) I had to spend a few moments afterwards trying to recall if I actually pumped the action.
I have never run into any problems with the functioning of the 1200, I would be interested in knowing some of the problems Dave McC had with them so I can take preventative action if neccessary.
