Tacticooled my 870 today

[SacTown]

I decided a couple of weeks ago to tacticool my stock 870 Express. Added a Wilson Combat +2 extension. Had to drill the indents out then de-burr it and add some blue to it. Purchased a new 18.5" Parkerized Improved Cylinder barrel with bead sight straight from Remington with the advice of Aippi. (thank you BTW) Grabbed a Mesa Tactical 6 shot side saddle. I was going to purchase a tactical forend to allow the use of the side saddle, but then decided to cut the stock one down and round the edges. It actually turned out pretty decent. I might just keep it that way.

It's about as tacticool as I want my HD shotgun but I still would like to add a weapon light. Preferably attached to some sort of clamp that can double as the clamp that attaches the barrel to the mag tube. Any recommendations? Thanks fellas.

Here she is. Sorry about the shi*** iPhone pics.

You have put together a solid fighting shotgun and worthy of the AI&P Tactical " Two Thumbs and a pecker straight up" award. Good job. KISS lives.

Think about a Super Cell pad or Limbsaver and your shoulder will thank you and your weapon will be finished.

As far as the pad goes. I actually installed a Limbsaver on it months ago and my shoulder has thanked me every time I've used it since then.

Thanks again for all the advice.

For a weapon light, you might want to look into something like this. I just picked one up and will be putting it on my 870.

When I saw your thread title, I thought I was gonna sigh when I saw the outcome. But nope, you did a good job.

And I have a barrel in transit for a similar project.

This is what I put on my 870, even has a detachable swivel for mounting a sling. I love it!

Im about to get one too, why is the wilson combat ext so popular vs the stock ext tube?
how much is it?

How much was your 870? im debating over which model to get, tactical with the choke, one with the blk hawk stock, or just the basic model.

Also that saddle, i heard another one thats really good star something?
how much do those run?
