I am a pistol guy, but i just bought my first shotgun, a Remington 870 express 7 shot synthetic 18" (it has the factory two shot mag extension installed). I head that the remington 870 was the swiss army knife of the shotgun world, and that pretty much everyone has one.
This gun will be used as primarily a home gun, with all the goodies, like the knoxx specops stock. It will probably be the gun that will take the Gunsite shotgun course beating as well.
I also want to use it as a target gun, for stuff like trap or skeet, and MAYBE a little bird hunting. What conversions do i have to do to make my gun able to do that? I know i will have to change the barrel, but to what size, and what chokes? That kind of stuff. Any input will be greatly appreciated. Thanks
