I have both guns but when I decided to purchase a good pump for both of my sons I purchased the Browning BPS. Yes the BPS is harder to completely tear down for cleaning until you have done it a few times. Like all machinery very few are manufactured alike.

I was going to purchase the 870 wingmaster. I called Remington factory specialty shop and asked about ordering a pair with high grade wood. They said they would do it but I would have to buy it direct from them then they would send to dealer and dealer would charge me on top of what factory charged for the gun. It ended up after buying the gun from the specialty shop I would also have to pay about $150 each for handling and transfer fees. I told them they could keep them.

Browning sent their BPS's to local dealer and I paid what I would if I bought it at factory without all the extra fees. They will even engrave your name on the gun for an additional fee.
