Very interesting. I've been researching home tactical gear for my 870 and recently started looking at red dots for assault rifles. Thought they were pretty cool (for lack of a better way to put it) and wondered just out of idle curiosity if one was made for shotguns. I've got a longer barrel for my 870 to take trap shooting so I wonder if a red dot would improve my shooting there (kind of half joking, but I am honestly curious).
buck shot does not require red dot...simply aim at what u want to be obliterated and squeese the trigger if u do not see immediate results...find a bigger gun
thats why mossbergs loose acuraccy after long term use , because there barrols are poor quality compared to the remiungton , and why do you need 2 extractor claws , it does not make a difference , the shell ejects either way, the extractor claw argument is the stupiest thing ive ever heard , the only downfall is on the police model , plastic triger guard , kind of a dumb idea , it looks stupid and looks very uncomfortable. but remington is they way 2 go , there super cheap and super durable
It is not stupid when you have a claw break you out of the game dead or both.
The Remignton does only have one claw and they break very often with hard use. At least if you have two and one fails you are still in the game. Other then the Single claw flaw which for the life of me I do not know why Remington just does not FIX THAT. The Remington is a tank for sure.
man , im not even lying i have the exact same set up as you remington 870 12 gauge , truglo red dot mounts and red and green dot scope , 42mm , with a rifeled slug barrol, it has the synthetic stocks 2
red dot=extending the range of a combat shotgun. Instead of a home defence, you can defend your homestead. Hit enemies quickly at 100 yards with rifled slugs or 75 yards with cyote buckshot.
The guy that said Mossbergs are unreliable is silly. I have a 12 ga. from each of the two companies. I like them both. As far as I know, both have supplied thousands upon thosands of shotguns to law enforcement/military organizations and both are actually known for their reliability. I think it ultimately comes down to personal preference. And don't ask me because I obviously couldn'y decide...I got both! >=P
Does that metal casing that lets you attach the BKRD42RGD to your 870 come with purchase of the sight, or is that an external piece that needs to be purchased?
If it is external, what is that piece called and where can one purchase it?

Yeah ? but mine is way better quality than yours.....:) Joke apart you got one set up there, like you said yours is made for burglar hunting, i only shoot deers and small game with mine . Nice gun !
everybody check this... whats your source? don't beat around the bush, only a fuck tard would say such a moronic thing with no source or actual facts, i'm not tyring to put you down, but you have little knowledge of firearms. Remingtions and Mossebergs perform identical, same service life, both cost around the same price, and both companies make clones (just molded metal with no milling to cut the cost) of the models. So please, go see my page, see all the guns i own, and slap yourself. ( =
wile thats truu and I JUST picked up my Remington up from the shop because it had a broken extractor claw i would still prefer the remington to the mossberg it seems better built and more reliable sorry guy
I know how shitty plastic is that's why I asked. I know how a fuckin' saftey works. Did I mention anything about using it incorrectly or how to use it? NO. Not all guns come with a metal saftey genius. That's why I asked. Mossberg is a good example of showing a plastic saftey on their new models. Did you know that Knowitall?
srry dude if i offened you i just wanted to answer your question maybe you didnt know or something srry. I have this type of shotgun so just giving the news around that it is a metal saftey device
i got an 870 with a candilever barrel i have a bushnell banner for the slug barrel but, heres the problem i got a smooth bore also and i bought a red dot sight for that and there is no mount i can find to mount it on the barrel HELP PLEASE
yea got mine like that but its gunna take me a while to get use to it and get that muscle memory down not sure if i can use it for deer hunting but ill have to check
Nice Video. What type of rail did you use to mount your red dot scope? I have a Tasco Red Dot and I'm trying to put it on a Picatinny Rail by mesatactical. But it's not working?
Its the remington 12-gauge Shotgun Scope Mount. It uses a Weaver style railing mount which is slightly different than yours (spacing of the slots) and is made to mount red dots, and others
thats a really nice sight setup you have there i like how it hugs the receiver, hey i was gonna buy the exact same sight for my ak-47, how has it been since you've used it? any or mush problems? thanks
I had no prob. whit it, pretty reliable. I use it mostly for partridge hunt,it let you aim and shoot fast with both eyes open, thats why the 42mm view. i find the 11 levels of brightness pretty useless, i always use the brighter,and the battery last verry long in there
The function of the ventilated rib is to provide a better sighting plane for the eye to follow along when aiming the shotgun, as well as minimizing the heat transfer from the barrel to the rib. It cannot be removed
Actually, in the past they use to charge way more for a gun with a vent rib , but now it is just common on almost all shotguns (except for slug or deer barrel). In my opinion its better to have one than not.
oh cause i was going to buy a 870 and was thinking what to buy and i had seen a shotgun like yours but was wondering if the ventilated rib could take off cause i wanted to make it in to a tactical shotgun with a extended magazine and a top folding stock from ATI and well that ventilated rib would just look ugly in a tactical shotgun. well at least to me. but i see if i can find one with out it. and thanks for the info.
that red dot wont hold up very long on that shotgun. Mine fell apart after two trips to the range
spent a bit more on a aimpoint, certified for 12GA

All you have to do is to pop out the 2 receiver pins (make sure the triger assembly holes stay align )
and put the scope mount on place with the 2 threaded pin/screw that come with the mount and your done !

What Facts?
Mossberg was the ONLY one to pass the Miltary TEST of 3,000 rounds non stop.
Mossberg has DOUBLE CLAW extractor the others do not they have single claw that does break.
What Facts are you reading. I have 3 Mossbergs one is 30 years old and thousands of rounds never broke or failed once in that time.
1-30 year old perfect function.
1-20 year old perfection function.
1- 10 year old perfect function.

If you want to make it a tactical gun, get one with the slug barrel witch is shorter and without a vent rib. you can modify these guns at will
