Post pictures and specs of your tactical SHTF 870's. I just bought a second 870 (one I've had for a long time that I hunt with) to turn into a grab and go tactical shotgun. I'm mainly just looking for stock and forend ideas. I started by ordering an 18" barrel now I would like to replace the stock and for end. I'm not going to go crazy with it just want to lighten it up a bit and make it more maneuverable. SO what does yours look like?
No time for a pic.... but I prefer a rifle sighted 18 or 20" barrel.
They are usually parkerized.
I have an 870 police that came with this barrel...and a Wing Master 870 that has the same barrel but in high gloss blue (smooth bore not a rifled slug barrel or I would not have bought it.)
All you that have invested in shock absorbing stocks and pistol grips, good for you. But I will tell the rest of you that it is unnecessary. The best feeling and most effective and comfortable 870 I have ever used was in the military and I used it for three years. Composite stock style butt stock with Surefire fore grip. In my opinion the best feeling shotgun I have ever operated.
I apologize for posting a picture of a plain jane Rem 870 Police with standard rifle sights.
Nothing tactical, but it does the job.
By the way, the only useful addition is a sling and a Mesa Tactical Carrier, since I don't like the plastic carriers.
If length of pull is an issue, I can understand that one wants to change the stock or makes adjustments to that...
Other than that: IMHO it is overkill. It is a freakin' close range lead delivering machine. Trick out your rifles...
