The Wingmaster looks a whole lot prettier, and shoulders much nicer. The flip sid eof that is it shows wear and damage a lot easier. They really don't shoot much different, the only difference I've found is the trigger. The wingmaster has a cleaner trigger break, but that is relatively moot on a shotgun.
The choice is yours. Do you want a cleaner nicer looking gun, or do you want a cheaper version. If your going to put it through hell, I'd say go with the express, but it sounds like you're going to have it cased if you're not shooting so abuse is minimal.
So we're back at square one. The difference is a matter of appearance. do you want it now, or wait. One thing, do not buy a gun at Walmart. Go to a local gun dealer, they will be inclined to bargain and throw in extras like cleaning kits and shells to sweeten the deal. Also, if you decide to save money, wait until about january, after hunting season and dealer's are cleaning out stocks to make room for the new models and such.
