Default My Remington 870

I got the gun around the time Matt got his Mossberg 500 Mariner, but didn't have a camera until yesterday. I had a full stock on it too but I changed it to a Tac-Star Tommy Gun style Pistol Grip. I might get a picture of it with the stock on sometime later, but for now, here it is.



It looks tough as nails. Nails that shoot buckshot.

Plan to get a stock for that or you going to just fire it from the hip?

That answers the first part of the question pretty well. Whenever the hell I get a chance to fire it, I'm gonna try shooting with both the stock and the pistol grip.

Nice! It looks a lot like one that I've handled. Except I was a lot more interested in the Express Tacticool.

Also, I've since discovered that pistol grips on shotguns really do suck as much as people say. But they are fun to have.

Nice! You showed me on AIM what it looked like with the stock, but it looks pretty damn cool with the pistol grip. Push forward with the hand on the pump and pull back with the hand on the grip. It cuts the muzzle flip down. And rest your elbow on your chest with your elbow bent. Most pistol grip guns (mainly pistols... xP) are better shot with your arm straight, but try holding a shotgun with two hands and keep your right arm straight. It's not easy and very awkward to try and aim with.

I tried chest level. It's not too bad, but the pistol grip really digs into my thumb. After shooting most of the afternoon, I'd started developing a blister.

Here's mine. I have a factory folding stock for it. Bought it before buying the gun. Couldn't bring myself to change the stocks. So I'll pick up a beater Wingmaster in the future.
