Remington 870 Tactical Build – When stock is not enough (need more cow bell) by SAR


Note: the soundtrack I believe is called “The Kiss” or The Gael by Dougie Maclean from The Last of The Mohicans Soundtrack. Anyway… I purchased a 870 Express from wally world a couple of months ago for @ $300. Its a plain jane 12 gauge with 28″ barrel. Well I decided to it needed cow so this video shows what happened. Here is the websites for the equipment I used… 1. website (but plz shop around for the best price) www..com 2. Tac Star www.tacstar.com 3. BlackHawk for SpecOps recoil tech www.blackhawk.com 4. Purchased shorter 870 smooth barrel from local gun store arcticshootingsupply.us Here is the cost of the … 870 Express………………………$300 18.5″ barrel……………………….$100 SpecOps Recoil Tech stock…$136 Side Saddle ……………………..$ 34 8 shot mag extension…………$ 56 Forend & grip……………………$ 27 Coleman flashlight……………..$ 15 Pressure switch…………………$ 5 ————————————————- Total cost = $673 Anyway it was fun to and if your looking to get a shotgun and go tactical, you might want to hurry because finding guns these days is a wee bit difficult. Take care & God bless, Steve ps BTW on the newer 870s when your replace the mag spring you will probably to file down two indentations near the forward end of the original mag so the extended mag spring will not bind on those two points.

    Dude, do you have a tattoo on your foot that looks like the flesh is melting away and showing the bones underneath? Because the one on your arm reminds me of something I stumbled across on an art site.

    Cool video very informative I just picked up my first shotgun a Remington 870 express but I like the look of the tactical version so the barrel in the video is an 18.5″ barrel and 8 shot mag tube?

  8. thesamuraininja says

    that’s so bad ass!

  9. solidfox07 says

    I have the Knoxx stock on my 590 Mossberg, I love the recoil reduction for quicker following shots. The Barrel is also a good mod to this shotty. I’m not to fond of the Tacstar stuff myself, I find it cumbersome and much harder to field strip the weapon should it break down.

    Awesome vid man

  11. TheBgcheez says

    Would locktite be a good idea or not for some of these screw on parts?

  12. taurenvonred says

  13. cochise82 says

  15. MilitantPIG says

  16. ahesse1488 says

    wah wah wee wah. very nice

  17. fuigo says

    nice very nice.

  18. Daflaminasian says

    @RevengeOfRedBaron maybe a wooden one? Sure its not tactical but it is stronger

  19. RevengeOfRedBaron says

    @Daflaminasian I’m sure there are sturdier stocks out there. Real weapons aren’t like the ones in Call of Duty or Counterstrike.

  20. Daflaminasian says

    @RevengeOfRedBaron You sure I couldn’t will the inside of the stock with some sort of polmer filling or something?

  21. RevengeOfRedBaron says

    @Daflaminasian It’s called buttstroking. The synthetic stock would probably break.

  22. Daflaminasian says

    Personally I would’ve kept the synthetic original stock cuz you could do those fast gun turning buttstock hits. Like WWII style

  23. ericvasquez62 says

  24. nebula25x says

    All i can hear now after watching this video is Daniel Day Lewis shouting
    ” I WILL FIND YOU!” I WILL FIND YOU!” Cool video, nice scattergun.

  25. Tonybologna416 says
