Remington 887 Nitro Mag Tactical vs Remington 870 Express Tactical

I can't actually recommend one over the other, but I can tell you I have had zero problems with my 887 NitroMag Tactical, I have about 500 rounds of all types thru it and has never jammed, or anything else, just has been reliable for me.
 
My 887 nitro mag tactical is iffy. One day it shoots fine. The next day it wont eject the empty shell and is completely locked up. I cannot reccomend this shotgun, unless its a "just for fun" gun and you NEVER plan to use it in an emergency situation.
 
I have an 870 express chambered in .410, and I love it! First (and only) gun I ever went hunting with, and got the first pheasant I flushed. I've put close to 300 rounds through it, I think, and it has never so much as hiccuped at me. The only real issue I have found is that the bolt is a little weird to put back in... Maybe it's just me though. Never fired or seen an 887 nitro, gonna have to give it a go one day and make a determination.
