So i'm planning on picking up a Remington 870 here in a little while and i need some help on what to get for it. Its the express model 18 inch w/ mag extension. Its going to be used for some coyote hunting and just shooting for fun.

Thanks for your help guys
 
Re: Remington 870 upgrades

Vang comp big head safety, Choate or other heavy tube extension and clamp, with alum or steel follower, get rid of the flex tab, Mesa tactical makes a nice picitanny rail if you are gonna use optics, or I chose a Wilson rear ghost sight and had a tritium front sight installed. I chose a Knox stock with recoil reducer (still has a lot of shove) and a surefire front weapon stock light. Dura or Cera coat of your choice and you are GTG.

Re: Remington 870 upgrades

I want to find one of the police magnum wood stocks, and i already has a mag extension and clamp so no more needs there. Im not going to be running optics, just maybe some trijicon ghost rings.
 
Re: Remington 870 upgrades

ive got a 200.00 dollar gift certifacte from xs sights for any gun you may own, the rem 870 sights in the catalog look promising.
 
Re: Remington 870 upgrades

I found some trijicons on midway for half the price, and i like the look of them better.

Anyone know where to get one of the police wood stocks?

I'd check eBay for used stocks, they've got a ton of them.
Does that model come with RemChokes? I know a lot of the "Home Defense Models"
from different manufacturers come with a regular cylinder bore barrel (no choke tubes).
I would want to be able to change out tubes.
