Ditto this.
I have to buy a 2nd one now anyway... since the first one already has Form1 in process to make into a SBS. May as well buy the cooler looking wood version.

Yep.  I have the Pachmyer grip on one of my 870s and its definitely  too short for a Tac 14

When my form1 comes back to SBS the TAC14... in place of the regular hogue stock... can i put a pistol grip on it ? or does that make it an AOW instead of SBS ?

Contemplating, cutting a laminated stock at the 26.5" mark and adding a fitted piece of powder coated aluminum diamond plate as a cap.
Can anyone see a legal issue?

Does anyone know if a standard full length barrel will fit on a Tac-14?
I am wondering if the barrel lug is in the same place.
Thanks for the help,

A brace is a brace, a stock is a stock. I'm no legal solar, but I'd think you create an sbs attaching a stock. "designed to be fired from the shoulder"

Again, I'm no lawyer.

It sounds more like you are trying to make a stock a stock no more. I'm still not sure that clears you.

Everything that isn't a stock - isn't automatically a brace.

The magic, legally, is in the arm brace. An object that allows you to strap your arm in a pistol to aid shooting.

I think you'd need to turn your stock into a brace. Even then, your design may or may not be accepted as a brace. Supposedly, the braces everybody is buying, have all been vetted by the atf.

I put some hockey stick tape on the rear, and a vertical/light grip on the forearm. Tamed it the shot *ahem* firearm nicely.
No ejection issues, and point of aim is point of impact from the hip to mid shoulder.
All I do is push forward enough to create a little tension forward. Now for a one round extension.

If you intend to create your own brace, just don't.  Unless you spend the money to send it in to the BATFE for review. As long as your barrel is over 18.5 inches you can shorten your existing stock so the total length is no less than 26.5 inches.

20 Gauge.  Buffer tube and shell holders came in today.  Still waiting on a +1 extension and will probably plate it at some point, either in hard chrome or a satin nickel.  I've had quite a few pistol grip 12ga's over the years.  When I sold the last one I told myself I'd never buy another.  Was pretty pleased to see Remington come out with the 20ga Tac-14!

Well, I jumped on the Shockwave train,today. Was in one of our gun shops yesterday and just happened to spend a few minutes, checking one out. Guess it intrigued me because last night, I read this thread and decided to give the Shockwave a closer look.
Needless to say, I'm stoked to have one, in my possession. Let the mods begin!

Not likely to be possible. With the rear of the barrel on a break action set back to where the rear of the BOLT normally is on a pump, they'll have to leave enough at the rear to maintain 26" OAL with anything below 18" barrels that ATF will call it a stock, and since it would have a stock it would be a shotgun. I cut a single shot to 18.25" once, even that had about as much behind the pistol grip as what you see on a mare's leg lever action. 4" off the barrel means 4" more at the rear. Short stock, but a stock.

The Mesa does look smoother but they both seem to stick out as far (I was concerned for storage reasons). The Aridus is a QD system that is much more solid than the esstac cards. It's pricey though.

Couple of questions for you Gentlemen.

On the SB brace and pistol grip set, can the pistol grip (Ergo, right?) be removed and replaced with an AR comparable grip like the Magpul MOE?

Which +1 tube extension matches the finish of the Tac 14 the best?

I'm about to work out the credit card!

Thanks!

The factory bead is riveted/brazed into the pedestal base (It will not unscrew). You will have to cut it off and drill/tap a hole into the remaining bead shank (but sometimes the shank will spin when the drill goes in). Something like the XS bead that epoxies over the existing base/bead is an easier install.

Looks great!

I made one similar except used the "High" Mesa Tactical adapter.  so the tube is higher up.  It workks great.  I have a shockwave blade on mine but like how the SBm4 looks better - I suspect I will get that brace.  I put one on an AR and its very comfortable.

I added the SB Tactical brace and put about 20 rounds through it yesterday.  It was great and makes it much more accurate.

The drop in the stock is similar to what I have on my Benelli M4 with the Mesa Tactial stock.  It was great for the XS Big Dot sight I have on it.

Its just easier to cut and re-solder a Remington base and bead - you can find the sight parts for about $15 on midway.  Solder at Brownells
I've heard (but not tried) that you can also use JB weld to affix the Remington sight base.
