wood finish is factory, but scuffed with fine steel wool for a more matte look.
nothing tactical here boys, just lots of wood and a choked short barrel, actually, the big dot front sight IS pretty tactical...

I already have a barrel that had the gas port modified so i dont feel bad hacking off the end of it to see if it works. Im thinking full or super full choke for it. Mainly for HD and possibly clay birds. I just really don't like my 14" 870. |

Much rather semi auto or a double barrel then a pump. Once i get the 1100 working I'm parting out the 870 and SBSing an over under and a SXS with exposed hammers. |

This shotgun was in the back of a truck headed for the junk yard. Looks like someone shoved a 20 gauge down the barrel and followed with a 12 gauge. Barrel was blown just past the hand guard at about 13", someone had to change their shorts after that.
I paid $20- for the poor thing and registered it on a Form 1, paying $200- to make it a short barreled shotgun. Stock removed and barrels cut to 9.75", this thing WILL get your attention when fired!! So here we are with the before and after pictures. Baker Gun Company, Batavia Special, 12 gauge, 9.75" barrels, 18.25" OAL. This is my Mad Max special. I used screen shots from the movie while creating this beast and left as much rust as possible for that post-apocalyptic look. Barrel work done by Gary at Gary's Bunker another awesome job from him.

I think it was $115-, see page 18 in this thread for a couple more he's done for me. BTW: I don't work for that company, don't know anyone at the company, and make no money or receive any discounts, I'm just a happy customer. |

Hello shotgun guys!
Since I must destroy my two SBS Rem 870 barrels (12 & 14") over my gunsmith after the last gun law change in our country I still looking for a nice SBS which fit the new rules (only semis are allowed under 18" barrel, repeating shotguns not! Silly, I know!) So I 'm in the game for a semiauto shotgun, which is still allowed as long gun as long it have over 24" overall lenght! Seeing many Rem 1100 and 11-87 flowing around in the German used gun business for small money I have to take my chances. Trying such a beauty as normal 14" barrel sbs and another in the style of the old Sage Sidewinder to take my original Rem folding stock on it Have someone here a clue what it takes? Sage is out of the business with those conversations and want not give any infos about. Can someone help me? Complete mechanic workplace is there, I only need to know what must change on that shotgun and to which scale and measurements. Thanks a lot Fritze from the Rhineland |

Wo wohnen sie im Deutschland? Ich wohne im Mainz-Gonsenheim fur zwei jahren, vom January 90 bis November 91. I wish I could be of help regarding the conversions of 1100's and 1187's. It sucks that your gun laws are changing for the worse. Sorry to hear that. If you want to get rid of those 870 barrels, there are a few U.S. soldiers who are members of ARFCOM that are stationed in Germany. Maybe one of them can take them off of your hands and find a buyer here in the States? |

Swapped out the fore end to the new Magpul MOE. I'm liking it quite a bit.

I really wish SBS/SBR were legal here in Washington. Looks like I will have to settle with an AOW for the time being... Gotta start checking pawn shops and everywhere else for a steal on a shotgun to convert.
