According to what I've been told, the "old school" models were good guns. The newer ones are supposedly inferior quality in comparison. Not trying to offend anyone or start any kind of dispute. Just what I've seen/heard. I don't own one so I can't say for sure.

They are referring to the old camo patterns.

x10. Love my old 1187. Not my primary gun, but it will run circles around the new ones.

Thanks... just wondering.  My 11-87 I hunt turkey with is around 20 years old.. I guess it is one of the good old school ones.  Never jamed anyway

Not replying as if you intended to start a dispute,  but this is where many people are confused or misled by others.  Remington quality has not become inferior when you compare the older versions to the newer versions or when you compare Remington to any other gun manufacture.  The less expensive models are intentionally designed with a lower degree of fit and finish. There is a difference there most people do not understand.  Those "old school" guns just have that "old school" camo on them that people really fell in love with.  An 870 or 11-87 bought today will function just as well as an "old school" camo one.

I respectfully disagree, this has not been my experience.

Well said.
Remington Arms has been in business for nearly 200 years. Obviously them manufacture quality products. I agree it is an issue about making a more reasonably priced product to compete with their competitors. A vast number of consumers want a lower priced gun, so fit and finish are not the same as the higher end models. Remember the old saying " You get what you pay for " . The only way to get cheaper is to buy the chinese clone JUNK. NO THANKS. I am a Made In The USA guy all the way.
