A few months ago ot seemed like they only carried 26" or so shotguns. I'm looking for an 18 or 20" Remington 870 or similar with wood or sythetic stocks. Is it woth taking another trip down there or do they usually not carry them? Also, how is their shotgun pricing? Is it on the high end? Thanks in advance!

A common alternative to the 870 is the Mossberg 500. Dick's usually has them in the 20" variety w/ a 8+1 capacity (Full length mag tube)
Edit to correct barrel length.

Not sure where you are, but we just got 2 new Mossy 500 Persuaders in and have 2 5+1 Mossy 500 Marine Coat. On the H&R side, we have 2 18" 5+1 Pardner Protectors...
This is at DSG in Pittsfield....

Why not give the gun counter at BP a call and ask them. It's been a few weeks since I was there and I honestly don't look at their long guns, so I can't offer a direct answer to your question . . . but I suspect that you'll get a legit answer by calling and asking.
If it were Tuesday, I'd suggest calling ZHA and asking as well.

was just there Friday... sadly... I only looked at the hand guns... sry.
they seemed to have a rather large selection, but cant promise on the SG sizes.
they had pleanty of ammo though.
Dicks always has the Moss 500 and the rem 870 (Brockton) when I go in.

I was also in there Friday around noon. Ammo supply wasn't super but there was some other then .40
The handguns were down to one shelf for semis and one shelf for revolvers. Two weeks ago the cabs for pretty stocked......
Sorry I did not check long guns.
Edit: forgot to mention while I was checking ammo a husband and wife with 2 kids were buying some. Brought a smile to my face to see the wife picking out what she needed and being bummed out on missing some calibers......Evidently another shooting family!

Oops you're right. My 500 is 20" in 8+1... For some reason I was thinking it was an 18"
