This may seem like a silly question but does using the Wilson/Scattergun high-visibility plastic follower inside the Remington 870P factory +2 magazine extension affect the capacity?  I used to have one (Wilson part) but sold it so I can't check myself.  The factory Remington follower is a hollow cup and the Wilson/Scattergun follower is solid and has a "leg" about an inch long.  Does the "leg" interfere with loading the tube to capacity?

Thanks

No mine still holds 6 rounds in the tube w/ no problems.  I also tried the orange one by I believe tac-star (not sure if that's right) & it did shorten the count by 1 round.

SNAFU,

Do you have the W/S green follower in your Rem tube?

Thanks

The Wilson and Choate magazine followers "leg" or "tail" fits into the center of the compressed spring, so capacity is NOT affected.
