shipping a gun from them will cost you about $25 - $30. i deal with them alot and there great. i would also recomment lebaron in montreal, wholesalesports in calgary and russellsports in calgary......all are very good to deal with!

p.s. i find on average lebaron is the cheapest of the 4....most of the time anyways!! good luck :thumbsup1:

I've done plenty of business with SIR and Wholesale Sports with zero problems. But I'd like to add Ellwood Epps Sporting Goods in Ontario as a company with a great inventory of firearms and outstanding customer service.

I live about a half hour away from Ellwood Epps's and they are great to deal with their prices are fare and once in a while you find a realy good deal. They have practicaly everything you need for gun parts and reloading.
My 2 cents F.K.

I like both, but the 870 is probably more reliable and not that much slower to cycle when you get used to it. A lot less can go wrong with the 870 than the 1187 and many repairs can be done in the field if need be with hardly any tools. That being said, I have not had a malfunction of either one ever.

That's what I like to hear... can't decide get both! Did you check the prices for Le Baron? They used to have Remmy cheaper than SIR.

SIR is cheapest for the 870's but wholesalesports had a price i just couldn't say no to on the 1187's and the difference in price between the 3 is no more the not much more then 9 dollars on most guns i was looking into.
