Remington 870 is a great reliable and affordable shotgun, And it's been around forever. Mossberg 500 is another great shotgun. I have them both, Not much difference in the way they shoot. There is only a few differences in the ergonomics of the gun. The Mossberg safety button is on the top of the shotgun (in my opinion a much better place) Than the Remington. Which is on the trigger guard. The Mossburg safety button is made of plastic and is susceptible to breaking. (mine did). Also the extractor button on the Mossberg is on the back of the trigger guard (a much better place in my opinion). Where the Remington is on the front of the trigger guard. Overall you can't go wrong with either one. Price's are generally close. Around $200, But the Mossberg always run a little cheaper. If I had to choose between the two...HMMM .... Its a toss up. It comes down to going down to the gun shop and finding out which one just feels better.
