Shotgun deal
Remington 870 SPS Super Mag used for sale at a scheels near me for $400 used. Wondering if this was a good deal considering no wear visible on outside. Before I go buy it I will make sure to check barrel with a LED light along with the choke. The rod/green dot scope is included for turkey hunting but I was wondering with different choke set-ups (and scope removed) if I could duck/goose, pheasant hunting and skeet shooting with gun or if they barrel would be so short (20") that a line of sight would be hard to make quick accurate shots. I couldn't find much reviews about it so I thought I'd ask you guys.

Re: Shotgun deal
Not a bad deal but that would only be good for, Turkey, Predator, and home defense. Not much use for any other kind of hunting or trap shooting.

Re: Shotgun deal
The thing with these 870s is, the action is identical for all lines, from basic to high end. I just sold my 870 tactical for $350. With that being said, $400 may be a bit high.
I would look for a used 870 basic of the basics, should be able to get one for around 200-250. Then purchase what you want to for it. (stocks, foregrips, sights, etc)

Re: Shotgun deal
I would pass on it and go buy a brand new 870 Super Magnum, which are less than $400
