Oh, I think LeBaron has had deals on three barrel combos for the 870 Express. I think they'd just be in 3" but that should serve you fine. I also noticed that the Mossberg $500combos are $489 at SFRC, while the Stevens 350 (with multichokes) is there for $199. I would highly recommend getting a shotgun with screw in chokes, especially if you want to use one gun for a variety of purposes.

For small game, a 2-3/4" 20 ga (or 12 ga.) would be fine. Getting a supermag pump is just a heavier gun to carry around, and upland hunting should be more accurately called 'carrying a gun all day and taking only a handful of shots'. Screw in chokes are nice to have, but full choke will do. You can find great deals on lightly used quality pumps, like a true Wingmaster, mossberg 500, Winchester 1200, etc.
If you're set on new, for my money, I'd avoid an 870 Express ESPECIALLY with Remington's Q.C. problems now.

Just to resurect this thread, i found a place selling brand new mossberg 835 in combo for only 400$. Is the 835 a good choice?
Care to say where did you find that deal?
