Zip, Very nice! Nuttin wrong with a wore out gun! When a guy says "will last a lifetime" they have to remember that a lifetime is relative!
My buddy with a car shop would answer the "Does the part have a lifetime guarantee?" "Yessir the part is guaranteed to last the life of the part"

6by, That forestock speaks volumes to the life that gun has lived! The rear does too but the fore sure makes me imagine the hands racking shells for hours on end...

I have had that Remington 870 police model since '79. I have put over 30K rounds through it. For years it was my only shotgun and spent a lot of time on the range and in the field. Always surprised people how well an 18" barrel did against dove. In the mid '80s I took it to Mexico on a dove hunt. I scored 62 dove with 75 rounds in 15 minutes. Too bad I can not take my kids down there anymore with the confidence we had in our safety back then.
