The older Remington Wingmasters are best pump shotguns every made. Mid 50s - Early 80s. Incredible weapons! They have stood the test of time, were built by craftsman, used high quality parts (Forged steel, no MIM), etc.... No pump shotgun currently made can touch them, or even get close for that matter.
Comparing the newly manufacturer models that I have used, I'd rank them like this:
1. Mossberg 590A1
2. Remington Wingmaster
3. Norinco (IAC 982 Hawk/ H&R Pardner)
4. Remington Express
5. Mossberg 500
6. Benelli Nova/Super Nova
7. Maverick 88
I've heard good thing about the Rock Island Pumps, but I don't have much experience with them. I've heard both good and bad thing on the Turkish pumps.
