    My Rem 870 makeover....

    So after seeing Black Majik's tactical classical Wingmaster, I decided to spruce up my own Remington 870 Wingmaster a little. Started w/ the ol' 28" barrel and four round mag tube. Bought a 20" IC Police barrel from aippi (www.aiptactical.com, great guy to deal w/ btw ), plus a Choate +3 extension tube and Galco buttcuff from Midway. Did have to dremel out the dimples, but it was a fairly easy procedure. I'm fairly pleased with the results.

    Before:



    After:

      To Black Majik, Nice gun!

      Like the sling, anyone know how the sling held to the tube support? I was looking for that exact part, but all the ones I found have the ring for the sling on the side. I'd like my sling to look just like Black Majik's
      To many Guns, and looking for more

        Nice looking wood on the OP's 870.... straight forward and effective.

          I believe the factory Remington 870 barrel clamp comes with a sling stud. He ordered his from Brownells, IIRC.

          (The sling is a 1907 sling, btw. Like what you'd find on M1 Garands and such.)

              Yeah I picked up an 870 express magnum here for a smoking good price and it's mid makeover. I'm going to order an 18-1/2" police barrel and 2 shot extension to go with the police stock set I got for it. I'll post pics when it's done.

                I liked the "before" picture the best, but that's just me.

                    When I bring it out for birds/clays, it will sport the "before" look. When it's home, it will be in the "after" configuration. That's what's so great about pumps in general and the 870 in particular--they're so easy to switch out.
