https://i.imgur.com/7tgaxHd.jpg I have a bunch of different barrel lengths/gauges, full stocks, and grips of various flavors. Next project is the 8ga barrel assembly. I like to get the full use out of that $200 stamp.

Finally get to post this here.
12.5" SBS Cut down from factory 18" riot barrel. $60.00 for chop, thread for rem chokes and front bead sight installation. Local gunsmith did it for me. I almost choked when he said over the phone he would do it for so little. Link to his website.  Attached File Attached File |

I don’t even have this back in my hands yet, but it’s a recently approved Form 1 Remington 870 SBS. The work was done by Josh at Cotton Branch Custom Firearms. The barrel was chopped to 10” and the lug had to be relocated. The mag tube was shortened to hold 3+1. The stock was also shortened a couple inches, along with some serious forend shortening/modification. The gun started life as an 18” 870 Tactical Magnum. I bought a used vent rib barrel and new 870 Police walnut furniture right here off the EE.

I've had a couple SBS projects in the works for awhile. I finally got this one done. 870 Special Field with 10.5" barrel. I have a local gunsmith that did the barrel chop. He did a proper cut/machine on the rib and re-blued the machined surfaces. To top it off he threaded for chokes. I shortened the buttstock a little bit. I haven't shot it since the transformation, but it was a smooth shotgun in its original form.

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By mPisi: Super neato. I like small things that still have a "fighting" capacity. Until now I was looking at a ghost-loaded 10"ish Benelli with 3+1+1. Plus with gas op you could cut down the stock some too. Do they make a factory SBS or is this a converted Tac 13? I’ve fired both full power buck and powder puff birdshot through this gun. No issues with either. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By swampfoxoutdoors: Nice more details please. Maker? Model? Who did the chop? Who did the wood work? And do you have a holster yet? Local smith did the chop, crown, and bead install. Did a great job for $60 I did all the wood, rough shaping with a palm sander and rasp, final shaping and smoothing by hand. Did 8 coats of boiled linseed oil spread over 72 hours and I will do a varnish or urethane coat in the near future. A holster is a fun idea, might be a good project for the summer. This thing would be a badass snake gun for short hikes in the badlands and black hills where I have encountered a few rattlers. |

I have a similar 20 gauge that I've done much of the work on as far as the stock/grip, but haven't chopped the barrels yet. Still trying to decide where to go with that.
