I have 2 "borrowed" guns from my old man as well. 870 Express short barreled slug/turkey gun and his H&R 10ga single shot "goose" gun with the 36" full choke barrel. I took the 870 about 5 years ago to clean it up since my brother decided to use it to deer hunt in the rain and then closed it up in a hard case until spring.:mad: D#mn thing was "orange" when I opened the case, I got it pretty much "cleaned" up now with only a small amount of permanent pitting.:mad: My daughter uses it for her turkey gun now and we keep it as an extra emergency slug gun for deer hunting. I borrowed the 10ga for turkey hunting about 4 years ago and when the old man moved to WY, he dropped off about 8 boxes of shells and said I might as well keep it, that he wasn't going to be doing any goose or turkey hunting in WY. He would never let me "borrow" his sweet 870 Wingmaster though, that gun is beautiful and he got it for next to nothing from an old guy at the bar that wanted to sell it.
