 I just got this email from my sister:
 
-> "Shot off a whole bunch of different guns and types of bullets with my neighbor the gun expert and former Vietnam platoon leader. I've decided to buy a Remington 870 short barrel. Picking it up this weekend and then getting it modified to fit me."

Very good. Shotgun fit is important if for no other reason than recoil.  Depending on your sister's build and arm length, she may also want to change the fore-end to a longer version. Most people like the short versions because nothing can get jammed between them and the receiver, but for others it can be a necessity.
