shouldn't Rem 870 Bullpup be more sevlte up front?

[America's Least Wanted]

Seems one of the great advantages of bullpup is easy stow-ability.

I'm looking at the slide and wonder even with large XX size glove hands "will it be like palming a basketball?"

I'd want a bullpup to fit under a coat, or at least behind the seat of truck, as nice as possible.

Did the marketing guys force the engineers to cater to mall ninjas and "gamers"?

PS-and while we're at it, how about a bullpup double barrel, either side by side or stacked? Maybe for my constantly postponed Zombie epic? Any CA or USA legal issues?

Considering the conversion kit costs more than I paid for my 870, it's kind of a hard sell. If it were $200 or less, I'd be all over it. But not for $359.

With a conversion kit, you need to break down the kit to change the barrel to a vent-rib.

I would rather invest that 300 bucks into an SBS, (when I move out-of-state of course)

have you held one of those bullpup chassis? they make the gun weigh like 11lbs.

They already have that...it's called a KSG.

Weight increase is .8 lbs over a standard 870.

Price has been under $300 at Bullpuparmory for a long time.

Not everyones cup of tea, but a sweet shooter none the less.

I like it, poor mans KSG...kinda

[BajaJames83]

Hideous.....

[funnybookz]

If this is the one I saw a review of before, its more reliable than the KSG and the other one, I think UTG(?).

[H2O MAN]

Yes I have, and it's a few pounds lighter than you say.

I liked it, but I prefer a semi-auto over a pump action.

Hideous.....

And that's saying it nicely.

[hatidua]

Try to spend some time running a 12ga bullpup before committing to buying one. If this 870-conversion makes recoil anything even remotely similar to the KSG, it'd be cheaper to buy a 10# sledge hammer at Home Depot and give your buddy $5 to repeatedly smack you in the shoulder with it.

I thought I wanted a KSG. Then I had an opportunity to run one for an afternoon....

i thought this wont fit with a barrel ribbed vent?

My point exactly. That i why i personally don't like conversion kits.
