    Remington 870 Magazine Extensions

    OEM 870 mag tubes can be a bit tempermental and they are very sensitive to very slight misalignments. I have worked on (and cured!) many feeding problems of the type you have described. Frequently, the problem is caused by either over tightening the extension tube or using an out of spec mag...

    OEM Mag Extension for a 20 Gauge Remington 870

    GRZ88, Thanks for the lead on the Rem part number! I will also check out Nordic. I had never heard of them before. One piece mag ext tubes like Choate and Tac Star may have an advantage. I have sometimes found after reassembling my 12 gauge 3+ Remington extension that shells will bind...

    OEM Mag Extension for a 20 Gauge Remington 870

    Kernel and Wideym - Thanks for pointing out the Choate option. I've known about them but my personal preferences are for a Remington OEM..... if I can find the darn things! I do like some Choate products. I got a 1" stock extension butt plate for my AR-15 and think it's great!

    OEM Mag Extension for a 20 Gauge Remington 870

    They are definitely around. I've see them on new Remington Model 870 Express 20 gauge "home defense" shotguns that are released periodically through the distribution channel with synthetic stocks and the narrow diameter (for the smaller light weight frame) mag extensions. I've held them in my...

    OEM Mag Extension for a 20 Gauge Remington 870

    Thanks for the suggestion about Wilson, Riomedinamike. I will look into that. However, if I remember correctly the Wilson tubes do not come with barrel clamps, which I consider to be essential, and the 12 gauge after market clamps from Uncle Mikes and others wouldn't be the correct diameter...

    OEM Mag Extension for a 20 Gauge Remington 870

    Also, I forgot to mention. I have had high level business dealings in the past with Cerberus which owns Remington, Bushmaster, Marlin, H&R plus a couple of other gun companies. So I may be able to get the parts I want on a "friends and family" basis it I can quote the right stock number.

    OEM Mag Extension for a 20 Gauge Remington 870

    It's simply a matter of aesthetics and personnel preference. I do not like the look of the Choate tubes. I agree the Mec-Gar makes great mags both under their own name and for many gun manufacturers as original equipment. But the Choate tubes are of an entirely different design. I have used...

    OEM Mag Extension for a 20 Gauge Remington 870

    Most of us know that Remington restricts the sale of 2 and 3 shot magazine extension to government and law enforcement agencies, a fact that is rather odd since they also sell various HD models to the general public that have that equipment already installed. Still, it is common to find used...

    Hoppe's No. 9 Rash

    This is not a small issue! Volatile chemicals can be absorbed into the blood stream directly through the skin. I think this is a very real unreported and under appreciated risk. My son is a biomedical engineer and we have frequently discussed the hazards or transdermal absorption of bad...

    Marlin Golden 39a Bullit Feeding Problem Please help

    Dogspit, I hope you work out the bugs in your Model 39A. When you do you find it to be a totally reliable companion. I have owned over 100 firearms in my lifetime including 9422s, Browning leveractions, Winchester 62As, Ruger Model 7722s, but my Marlin 39A is one that I will never part...

    Maryland - MSI Update 3-18-07

    Very Encouraging Developments! I have lived in Massachusetts for 27 years but still have very strong ties to Annapolis. And I have always wanted to find a way to return to the Bay area. However, much to my bride's disappointment, the gun laws were always a real show stopper. Things aren't...
