THE IMAGE ABOVE IS A PAID ADVERTISEMENT
Well I went a little crazy with the credit card tonight. I have a Remington 870 express. I already had the blackhawk knoxx spec ops stock (non recoil reduction) and a GG&G side sling attachment.

I went ahead and ordered a one shot extension from Wilson Combat. I wanted the two shot but I couldn't find on anywhere. Should be okay because once my NFA trust is ready I am going to go to a 14 inch barrel and the one shot extension should sit flush.

Then I went with another Giles sling similar to the one on my Colt AR-15.

Then I went with a Mesa Tactical 6 shot side saddle because the stock mounte saddle I have won't work with the sling.

Finally the biggest hit to the wallet is the Surefire LED 6v, three switch forend.

I have been wanting to get my shotgun finished for awhile and kept putting it off, but since my AR is basically done I figured it was about time to show my scattergun some love.

I have to drill and dremel the detents in my mag tube to get ready.

Once everything is here and installed I'll get some pictures up.

God uses an 870. Good choice.

That's because it now takes divine intervention to make it through 50 shells without a failure to extract.







ETA: Good choice on the Surefire light, OP. They aren't cheap and they aren't light, but I really think that they're the best way to put a light on a shotgun.

Sounds good! Looking forward to the pics. My 870 is getting an overhaul as well. I'll have to get some pics of it up soon, too.

Yeah I have an old TLR 1 sitting in my closet and I debated getting a forend with a rail and I looked at that Eotech forend but I don't like how low it puts your hand. I've always been a kind of surefire fan boy so I had to just suck it up and shell out the dough lol.
