I had a good experience with an 11/87 for a short time and then it was stolen.

True enough, I didnt have it long enough to give it a proper evaluation but I did put a 10 round extended mag tube on it (I had to drill out the little dimple on the mag tube, piece of cake!). I had it long enough to put only a couple hundred rounds thru it with the ext. tube, no problems whatsoever.

With the 10 rnd tube in place it held;
10+1 2.75" shells
9+1 3" shells
8+1 3" slugs

Actually, I was thinking of replacing it, so I'd be interested in knowing what problems the 11/87's had/have to help me decide if I should replace it or not. I had no problems, how many of YOU have had problems with yours?
