O-rings. An 870 ain't got no stinking O-rings Otherwise, I like the 1100 just fine.

I shredded the O-ring on my Wal-Mart 1100 taking it off over the razor-sharp threads. It just wasn't big enough. When I went to the gun store to buy 2, the guy looked at me funny and said "Just two?" Figuring he knew more about it than I did, I splurged and bought 3.

It turned out that the ones from the gunstore were a much better fit. They were also a metallic color and not flat black like the one that came on the gun.

I lucked out the day I bought my 1100. The man working the gun counter was the department manager and had been there six years. He quickly found the gun on the computer, found it in the back, found the sale price and then did the paperwork. Other than waiting a few minutes for someone to come and countersign the paperwork(or something or other), everything went smoothly. Even the walkout was fast - he was going to lunch.
