That being the case, I wouldn't recommend a Wilson 870 to my worst enemy.
They take $250 shotguns, add $250 worth of parts, then sell them for $1,000.

That is the truth more or less. I wanted their Border Patrol model and felt that $960.00 was a bit on the expensives side. I started with an older used 870 Express ($200.00), added $220.00 of parts from Brownells (Wilson, Speed Feed, etc) and $420.00 later had the same gun, well almost any way. It does not say Wilson Combat on the side, and I feel like I am at a tactical disadvantage when I use it because of that. (sic) The 870's just plain work and last. The main thing with the Express is to bring the trigger groups up to the Police standards if possible.
Right now the barrel for the gun is at Vang Comp for their VCS with ports. When it is returned I will have 4 Vang Comp barrels to test on 4 different guns one 18" and 3, 14"s. Hans Vang is a complete pleasure to do business with. Customer satisfaction is job 1 with him big order or small. After I test them I'll start my own thread for a report.
