Default Used shotgun inspection.

Anyone in Calgary that can check out a well used Remington 870 Wingmaster.
Any idea on costs for such inspection?

Just took a You Tube crash course.
They look pretty easy to disassemble.
Any particular parts I should look at for excessive wear ?

When you drive out the cross pins, be careful when pulling the trigger group out, you have to lift and ease it back a bit to get it out.

Check the lifter function.
Most;y all you have to do is clean it up and put it back together again.
if it was working fine before disassembly, there is no reason to check, prod, or disassemble further than the trigger group.
