So, what could have gone wrong for a gun that achieved this “trifecta?” Why on earth didn’t it sell like hot cakes, and why was it discontinued? Buckle up my friends, I’ll be giving you the full story here in our Remington Model 887 Nitro Mag Tactical Shotgun Review! Remington Model 887 Nitro Mag Tactical Shotgun Remington Model 887 Nitro Mag Tactical Specifications It features a remarkably durable synthetic build, it fires like a dream, and its light weight will take you by surprise the first time that you hold it. Now, on a few rare occasions, I have had the pleasure of firing a gun that bucked this trend and hit all three check marks – and the Remington Model 887 is one of those guns. Or, it could be lightweight and durable, but not handle well.
In my experience, generally, a firearm can be durable and handle well, but not be lightweight. I would like to apply this same concept to gun development, but with different factors in play. Or conversely, it could be good and cheap, but not fast. For example, a restaurant can be fast and cheap, but not good. There is a widely-referenced project management concept known as the iron triangle, which states that of three key factors – fast, good, and cheap – you can only really feature two. I say “did” because the gun has been sadly discontinued, but we’ll get to that later. A successor of sorts to the highly successful Remington 870, the Remington Model 887 did a lot right. One of my favorite shotguns of any kind, and particularly of the pump-variety, is undoubtedly the Remington Model 887.
Is there anything quite as satisfying as pumping a high-quality pump-action shotgun, ejecting a spent round, and chambering a new one? Probably, but bear with me here.
