Suppressors 870 for arm for side saddle

[black_ump]

i know about an inch or so of the forarm on the left side needs trimmed so the action can be cycled on the 870 when a forarm is on ( 6 rnd for arm ) are their any forarms that are made short for this reason ?

i have though about getting a tri or quad rail forarm but if its to long i would have to cut the aluminium, since i dont have access to a mill any more to make sure the cut is good and squair i really dont want to cut if i go this rout

Your Express Tactical http://www.remington.com/products/firearms/shotguns/model-870/model-870-express-tactical.aspx and Police models http://www.remingtonle.com/shotguns/870standard.htm have shorter forends than the standard hunting models. As to whether those forends still need trimming to clear a side saddle,I don't know. My 870P at work isn't equipped with one.

I cut the forearm back originally on my 870, as I made it out of a turkey model. I put a surefire forearm on it and it fits fine with the side saddle. Solves two problems with one upgrade, the light and the uncut forearm.

Tac Star makes a 4 shell model SideSaddle that does not require any mods.

Sounds to me like the day has come for you to buy your first dremel tool and face shield....

Surefire forends fit perfectly with the mesa tactical 6rd sadlle.

The forend on 870P models fits well with the Tac Star side saddle. No whittling needed.

Speedfeed if you want to spend money, dremel or hacksaw if you don't.

Speedfeed and Remington Police are the best choices IMO.
