    Here are a few pics of the 870 Police I rec'd. The innards are as clean as the exterior. I'm *very* happy with them. Wingmaster pics to follow.

    Here are pics of the Wingmaster.
    Based on the date codes I believe it to be a '72.
    Other than some rack marks on the barrel, it's very nice.

    Well according to some guys on arfcom they ordered on 5/3 and their card was charged 7/1. Those of us who ordered around 5/18-20 when this thread started may be waiting another month or so if the current timeline holds. Hopefully the 2nd shipment was bigger than the first.

    Same here, my Son got the synthetic. His looked like new(except for the bore, neither one of them looked like they had been cleaned in a long time but 2 passes with a bore snake and they look like new inside)
    My wood was scuffed up a bit so I cleaned it up with wood rejuvenator and it looks OK for what it is. I was happy.

    Here's the 2 Wingmasters I received from Summit today. I'm pretty pleased with both. One has a barrel marked for 3 inch shells (though the receiver isn't marked for magnums) and the other "2 3/4 or shorter." They have the dings & worn finish I expected at the price. Worst defect is that the front sight blade on one had cracked off on one. Interestingly, I found the piece that broke off inside the box. Possibly shipping damage? Not a big deal as it is dovetailed into the base and should be easily replaceable.

    Those look similar to the wood ones I received. And one of the synthetics had the rear sight broken off at the dovetail, but it was in the box so I'm guessing that's on UPS not Summit. Other than that one of them has a chewed up front sight but that will get replaced with fiber and be done. One had a what appeared to be brand new trigger group, not a single mark on the trigger guard. Shot em yesterday and all in all am very pleased for what I got for the money.

    Just got my 870 Wingmaster yesterday as well! I couldn't be more pleased with the gun, knowing I paid $180 for it. Receiver is in great shape with virtually no blemishes. Wood has great patterns in it up close, and is in great shape as well....few scratches but not bad at all. The receiver is marked AHP for Arizona Hwy Patrol.

    Gun seriously looks like it's had less than 50 rounds through it. Took it to the range yesterday to crack off some birdshot and 00 buck, and everything went bang, and nothing went boom. All in all, I'm extremely pleased with the purchase!
