Before I go out and give my money to a corporation, I figured I'd see if anyone was looking to sell a Remington 870 shotgun with an 18.5" barrel so my money could stay local. I'm not picky about the stock or the forend as they will likely be switched out for a Magpul stock and forend. I'm looking for a shotgun with a 5-6 round capacity. To put things into perspective, I can grab a Remington 870 Express Synthetic Tactical 12 Gauge Shotgun from Academy for $320 + tax = $350ish. I don't mind spending money in that price range on a used Police model or spending a little less on a used Express model. I'm not interested in NIB pricing for a LNIB shotgun. I don't mind some scratches or nicks as long as they are in the normal wear and tear range. I would like to meet up in the Baton Rouge or surrounding area. Having to travel too far makes the new shotgun a better value as my primary vehicle is more fun than economical. If I don't get any offers by the beginning of next week, I'll likely just give my money to Academy.
