The new OLD Remington 1187 that I had bought earlier this year made it's first kill on Oct. 31 2011 and she likes the new life in the Va. woods. i may just keep the red/green dot scope on this gun it wooked great on getting on the birds heads.

What a sweet gun! I hunted with a college professor back in '98 and i have wanted one ever since.  I am buddies with Jim Crumley and I would love to have that gun!  I recently found one recently in Bottomland that I'm looking forward to getting set up for this spring.  If you ever want to sell it, let me know!

Im curious as to how that I.C .665 will shoot in it. My greenleaf 870-and 1187 have the same barrel. Hope she shines.. :icon_thumright:
