Hello,
My first post... I've been lurking for some time in order to listen and learn. Having soaked up a fair amount of knowledge, I set about to build my own tactical shotgun and here is the result:
and the other side:
There is nothing extra fancy or unique about my build. I tried to use the basics.
-The shotgun is a Remington 870 Tactical Magnum w/ a 20" bbl. and factory magzine extension, to which I have added the following:
-Surefire 6v forend
-Vang Comp dome safety
-Trijicon/Scattergun Technologies ghost ring sights with front and rear tritium inserts
-Brownells aluminum orange follower
-TacStar six round sidesaddle carrier
-Daniel Defense 870 Burnsed Loop Ambi sling mount (I shoot lefty)
-Wilderness Tactical single point sling with SPQD adapter
-Traded out the OE SpeedFeed IV stock for a SpeedFeed IV-S with a SpeedFeed SWAT butt plate for an approx. 12" LOP.
I love this shotgun. It is very accurate with consistent head shots at 35 meters using both Remington Slugger slugs and Remington reduced recoil slugs. It patterns tightly with Remingotn 00B. The Winchester 00B I have tried did not pattern as well.
Thanks for letter me show off! I hope to be able to contribute to this forum.
