In my experience, generally, a firearm can be durable and handle well, but not be lightweight.
I would like to apply this same concept to gun development, but with different factors in play. Or conversely, it could be good and cheap, but not fast. For example, a restaurant can be fast and cheap, but not good.
There is a widely-referenced project management concept known as the iron triangle, which states that of three key factors – fast, good, and cheap – you can only really feature two. I say “did” because the gun has been sadly discontinued, but we’ll get to that later. A successor of sorts to the highly successful Remington 870, the Remington Model 887 did a lot right. One of my favorite shotguns of any kind, and particularly of the pump-variety, is undoubtedly the Remington Model 887. Is there anything quite as satisfying as pumping a high-quality pump-action shotgun, ejecting a spent round, and chambering a new one? Probably, but bear with me here.
