I'm a big fan of the 870, so that is what I would go with.

The 870 is the all around gun and people use it from uplanders to deer hunters. Just my 2 cents

i have both, and love both, but would go with the 870.

1187 - good all around gun even for fast repeat shooting like waterfowl too-

It is gas operated and proven to kick less than even many of the newer fancy import auto's

Wal Mart $350 for camo 870 and $650 for camo 1187

+1. Can't beat WM prices.
The 870 kicks HARD, but is lighter to carry, and being a pump, is worry free. It will always go boom, boom.
The 1187 is a bit on the heavy side, but it won't kick your teeth out. It is a little more high maintenance. Keep it clean and it will always go boom, boom.

Either one is good. Get a Jellyhead choke and polish the barrel and it will produce a great pattern.
