A fact from Remington Model 887 appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 5 February 2010 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:

Did you know... that the Remington 887, which has many of the inner workings of the famous Remington 870, uses a unique polymer-based finish which makes it virtually impervious to corrosion and inclement weather?

A record of the entry may be seen at Wikipedia:Recent additions/2010/February.

Picture[edit]

Okay, so I just started this article. The main thing I think this article needs is a picture, because it's a significant part of the gun. It has a very unique look and I think would help this article out a lot. If anyone owns this gun, that would be great! -ChewyLSB (talk) 00:31, 23 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

History[edit]

I'm having a hard time finding anything about the development of this gun, where the design came from, who designed it, et cetera. Anyone have anything? -ChewyLSB (talk) 00:31, 23 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Remington Model 887 versus Remington 887?[edit]

I'm not sure if the article should start with "Remington 887" or "Remington Model 887". It seems like some Remington articles are named "Remington Model ###" whereas others are the other way. See: Remington Model 10 versus Remington 870. Whatever is decided should probably be applied to ALL Remington articles. -ChewyLSB (talk) 01:29, 23 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
