I had one and it sucked to the nth degree.

Found a Browning BPS Stalker for $225, I just need to cut the barrel down now.


Agreed. I've only ever sold one gun in my life and it was a NWTF 835. That thing was a piece of garbage.


Guess you guys wouldn't want to spend much time in Dakota goose blinds then. Everyone has a beater 835 for backup and loaner, and I've not met anyone with any problems except the plastic safety buttons can break.

What problems did you actually have?
