Remington Model 870

[LMan57]

I have a 870 Express Super Magnum Synthetic 12 gauge with a 26in. barrel and I am looking for a good place to buy a 18 1/2in. barrel. I have searched the Remington web site but I have not found any listed there does anyone know where I can get one.

You searched the Country Store as there is no Web site for the Part orders. The Country Store is run by a private vendor and sells small common ordered parts, over runs and discontinued items If you want to order from the parts list you have to call 800-243-9700 and follow the prompts to parts to order.

Thank you Sir.

Shorter barrel for model 870

I too am looking to put a shorter barrel on my 870. The Remington store is closed now as it is after 5 back east. Are there other sources for home defense barrels for the 870? Any suggestions on which might be best? Does one for a gun that uses 3" shells also work with a gun like mine that only takes 2 3/4" or shorter shells? It is a 20 ga Wingmaster.

Thanks,

Haggler

HERE's one for a 12 ga 3"

Saw your barrel. Why spend the money? If you have one with a vent rib then tap it and install a tritium sight.

Remington 870 has got to be one of the best shotguns out there, for fun, for first timers, and for pros. It's a great gun only about 400$ too

I got mine from cheaper than dirt, but don't use them. They are evil. I am sure other people have them

Thanks for the link, I have been looking and adding up what I want to do I think I may just buy one. After Barrel cost, tube extension, sling, stock with pistol grip I can buy new with a little more and have two shot guns and can still shoot clays.

I went the other way looking for a 26" barrel for my 870 with a 18.5" barrel. Found one here in the marketplace for $75 and the guy was local. Worth a shot.

I went to the AI&P Tactical website and spoke to J.D. What a wealth of knowledge. My 20 Gauge 870 Wingmaster has a serial number ending with X which means there are no short barrels made that will fit it. Cutting the barrel at 18.5" would work but that wasn't something I wanted to do.

I ended up ordering a gun from AI&P and am looking forward to having a reliable tactical shotgun put together by J.D to add to my home defense guns.

From snow packed Michigan to sunny dry California, can't wait to run some shells through it as soon as it arrives.

Midwayusa should have them.
