Bought an 870

Well, I have been "needing" a shotgun for the house, and the local sportsmans warehouse was having a sale on these, so i picked one up along with the heat shroud and the ammo clip.

I do actually have a question though. I would like a new foregrip and a flashlight mount but dont know who a good retailer is for aftermarket parts for the 870. Anyway, here it is.

 

I've had my 870 for years. I love that thing. It's killed many birds and 2 deer. Those things are workhorses!

 

Good looking gun. Surefire makes an awesome forend with built in flashlight. To save some money though, you can get a barrel clamp mount and get a light that fits. Just google them, there are tons out there. www.midwayusa.com is a good start, so is www.cheaperthandirt.com Egay even has some decent deals sometimes. Happy shooting!

 

very nice

 

I got the same Model...just with some different shit on it...looks good bud!!

Very nice, You'll have it the rest of your life... I know I'll have mine for at least that long!

 

Nice choice, I've been thinking of getting an 870. My best friend has one with the ammo clip, pump grip flashlight, and collapsible stock and it is badass.

 

I love my 870. That heat shroud is pretty badass too!

 

Surefire forend with built in flashlight

 

sweet! thanks for the link.

I was looking at the surefire, but i think id like to have the light mounted on the side of the barrel instead of under it.

 

Nice scatter gun.

 

is it an 870mag? what shells are you plannin on usin in it? its a good lookin gun. i just got one myself. have yet to shoot a turkey with it but its a slick little shotgun

 

I'v had mine for over 20 years, I relegated it to HD duty as well after buying a Browning autoloader, I want to use it in 3 gun matches

 

This thread meets with approval.

 

I keep the marine stainless version behind my bedroom door fully loaded. I do not keep one in the chamber because the "chunk, chunk" sound will hopefully make the suckers start running. I love a moving target.

Its loaded with three birdshot loads to keep from penetrating the drywall followed by two buckshot loads to finish the job if the birdshot is not enough.

 

Why didn't you get the new 887 supposed to be the new 870!?!?!?
I am torn between the too any advice!?!?

 

Well, i looked up reviews from different forums and found that people dont really care all that much for the 887........ and when i went to see them both in person, the 887 is a much bigger gun..... and doesnt look as "tactical" if you will.

And the 870 has been around for a while and has been tested and proven to be a favorite.

 

Im really looking into getting a pistol grip adjustable stock for my 870, but I cant find a product that doesnt have horrible reviews. I found the ATI adjustable AND foldable stock, which i think is pure bad ass:

I also found a surefire foregrip flashlight on eBay I might bid on:

Does anyone have any opinions on the above?

What is the best brand pistol grip adjustable stock out there in terms of fit and dependability. I dont want to buy a product that Im gonna have to trim and modify to fit properly. Thanks!
