Just to be clear, does the buffer reduce recoil a good amount to where it's worth being over $200? In other words, does it reduce recoil quite a bit or at least make it a lot easier to shoot and make follow-up shots? sorry for questioning...I want to know if it's worth it..
@MrGunRunning Ya it's noticeable. It's more of a push rather than a stab and it doesn't hurt my face. All I shoot is buckshot and slugs. My shoulder doesn't hurt at the end of the day. I have other videos of me firing magnum loads so you can see the recoil
Don't buy a MESA TACTICAL LEO and install it on a 870 Police unless you want BIG fit problems. I contacted Mesa Tactical (Mitch) to ask about an exchange, but the call was useless, and so was he. Bottom line: he (Mitch) stated that they are aware of a problem with the mold's and all LEO's will have fitting issues on 870 Police shotguns because of the thickness of the trigger guard. He said maybe I could dremmel it. LOL, "OK Mesa Tactical, customer NO SERVICE at it's finest." BUYERS BEWARE!!!!
I want to get the same stock setup, If u buy it with the buffer tube and magpul ctr kit its about $260 but if u buy it seperate its about $300 bucks. Is the buffer tube really worth it? Shot some 3" slugs with original stock and let me tell u! My shoulder was hurting for almost a week! LOL but it was fun! I dont like the spec ops plastic garbage! nice video.
@Joerex8four Yes. I shoot 3" 000 and rifled slugs every time i go shooting. I had girls shoot my gun and they like it. it still recoils back but not like a jab, more like getting pushed. Doesn't hurt my face like the original stock ether. It's my favorite mod to my shotgun. If you get the Mesa tactical setup, I would get the Hydraulic Recoil Buffer. A standard buffer tube is cheap. I seen $15 to $40 so your price would be around 300 still if you wanted to switch to a standard buffer
@jameshuynh02 just screw it in. I put a screw driver through the breaching chokes holes to take it off and used a choke wrench to screw it in. You could use a quarter to screw it in also
@CaptainNavarro slugs in a shotgun kind of defeat the purpose of a home deffense shotgun.. right? when youre thinking the point of a home deffense shotgun is to have an easy to use scatter gun that WILL hit an intruder when shooting pellets ; but WON'T send a slug or bullet into the next room that might hit your kid or your neighbor. ps- i have this exact gun, can't be beat in my opinion
Could you please do a video on how to install muzzel breach/break on the end of your 870? ... I have a 870 express, and I would really like to buy one for mine but I have no clue on how to install that thing.
@TheHeartOfTheLion It's pretty easy. Can your barrel accept chokes? all you have to do is screw it in. I have a choke tube in mine now instead of the breaching choke. Use a screw driver to get leverage on the breaching choke to spin it. For a choke you can use a quarter or you can buy a choke wrench.
@MrMiguellk your airsoft can blow my stomach out my ass? yeah if you fucking threw it at me going 200mph'!! thats the only possible way that is going to happen. and you replied to yourself? wtf is that about?
@kaygeeboi Yes. I was debating on getting the standard side saddle or the rail with the side saddle. I went with the standard side saddle because I decided I wouldn't use any optic with this shotgun
@amatthews38 The cost of the upgrades you see in this video is around $700. That is the upgrades attached to the gun. The reddot and scope rail, I don't remember. I bought a few extra things after this video like a magpul ctr stock and the new surefire flashlight
Im having problems with my extended tube on mine I bought it used so I got no instructions there is 2 little nipples sticking out almost to the end of the tube that keeps the shells from going past the end of the tube do I have to grind them off or what if anybody can help me out id sure appreciate it
@SocialNetworkWhore it's a cylinder bore choke so it doesn't constrict the pattern. its made so you can push it against a door to shoot the hinges and the gas will escape out the ports. it also did help with the flash. instead of a big beach ball size flash, it was a thin narrow flash. i don't use it tho. i use a modified choke. I have two videos on here if you want to see the flash difference. One with it on and the other with it off.
@runhorun I got mine for around $540 new in 2008. I seen some new ones go for $390. My 870 had the special choke and a carbon fiber paint job which brought the price up. The new Tactical 870s come with ghost rings sights and a rail for optics. I think they are the same price as mine. You can probably get a used 870 around $200
@okjustleave Factory barrel. You can go to Remington's site or you can go to midwayusa(dot)com. They have 18.5" with a bead sight or you can get tritium night rifle sights
I work at a shooting range in fort worth. A lot of guys go out and spend $2000 up to $60,000 on a gun tyo shoot skeet and trap with. Mine...a 25 year old pump action remmington 870 with a modified barrel. I put them all to shame with my $250 gun in skeet :D
Firearms are a great hobby for sure.amazing how many ways you can buy accesories for them. I just have the 870 in stock form but plan on some goodies for her soon. Yours is a beauty.
@luivillslugger They both have their pros and cons. The Mossy has a ambidextrous safety, the Remi does not. The Remi has a better safety position for a pistol grip than the Mossy's saftey. The Remi can add magazine extensions adding more rounds or less rounds, the Mossy ether can have a long tube or short tube which is fixed and cant be changed. The Mossy has dual extractors, the Remi has one. Remi has more aftermarket accessories than the mossy. The action on the remi is better than the mossy.
Im kinda new to all the equipment and stuff. I was curious if the Magpul CTR Stock is special made for certain guns, like do you nee one for a mossberg 590 or will any of them work? Like when i go to the Magpul site it says like AR 15 or carbine. I was jus making sure i dont buy one for the wrong gun.
@DenZoR34 The CTR stock will fit on any milspec AR buffer tube like Mesa tactical, Knoxx, Tapco, ATI, etc. The guns originally don't come with Ar buffer tubes just the standard stock like an 870 or 590. So you have to buy the stock mount that has a milspec AR style buffer tube for the CTR. There are milspec and commercial buffer tubes. I would stick with a milspec buffer tubes since it seems they are more abundant.
I was inquiring into the surefire and God719 was nice enough to post his cost of the product. I really would rather invest in a good sight..whether its a speedbead or good ghost ring..peace
thanks for the info on the surefire..these upgrades can get costly..the speedbead sight looks ideal for good cheek placement and is compact..would go well with your gun and the mounting is easy between the stock/gun. no permanent drilling..I have a high cheek rest with the Blackhawk knoxx recoil reducing stock with the powerpack attachment..the high sitting scope would be level with my 870, but i would not like the scratching of the gun part..i wonder if the speedbead is compatable with the Knox
Thanks for the good info..I am thinking of adding the surefire to my 870 tactical, but i am not too sure if it is cost effective. Also the added weight is a concern for me...Do you find the Red Dot scope to be of any use at range or long shot ? and does the mount for the scope secure tightly faced with continued use? Thanks again for the good feedback for other 870 owners.
@Drkojack It does add weight to the gun. Surefires are a little pricey but mine lasted two years now and the ergos are better than most light attachments. If you want something cheaper, you could buy a forend grip with picatinny rails on it and attach a TLR1 pistol light. I have one for my glock. it's a good light. My friend did that with his mossberg. I had no problems with the mount but it did scratch my gun so there is a little movement. but I'm able to hit coffee cans at 100 yards with it.
@Drkojack Honestly, I would rather use open sights or the bead for up close. The sight blocks to much view up close. it's better at long range. I also don't like how the scope mount raises the sight so you have to take your cheek of the stock to look through the sight. I was looking into a sight called Speedbead. I would rather have the Speedbead on my gun than my sight. The Speedbead is lower to the gun and it's thinner so it won't block your view as bad
@lpd1122 I figured I didn't need the extra weight since it's getting kind of heavy. I wear gloves so I don't need a heat shield. I do have a heat shield just not attached
@Wchris09 home defence, riots, natual disasters in which riots and looting would take place etc.no one is going to hunt with an 18in barrel. not every gun needs to be a hunting weapon rosie...
I hate that the good toys are only located in the states. Here in Canada it is hard to get the tactical parts. The good ones any how. Thanks for the video!
@ltxx84 My gun can take different chokes so I can screw any choke size I want. The door breacher choke is longer than my normal chokes which is flush with the muzzle
IMO vertical grips suck there just not useful on a shotgun unless its a sawed off and a EO Tech sights just to big for a shottie you need to get a Trijicon amber or red dot 1x sight there kickass and small.
I've got the Enidine recoil buffer it takes 70% of the recoil out of the shot. It's way better then the knoxx plus you can change the stock and grip if you want to
I can get (7) 3" rounds in the mag. My stock is one of the newer 6 postion stocks. Not the older one like he has plus I put a Viking buffer pad on it so it super comfortable in my shoulder.
I can get (7) 3" rounds in the mag. My stock is one of the newer 6 postion stocks. Not the older one like he has plus I put a Viking buffer pad on it so it super comfortable in my shoulder.
I got the same set up just alittle better. I got the picatinny/ghost ring sights on top. I put a mesa tactical sling ring on it for a sling. The new l.e.d. Surefire lite. Plus a Wilson Combats shot tube witch adds that extra round.
@ZombieJudd Ya I bought the new 200 lumen LM2-BK light. Just the light. Not the forend. Can you get seven 3" shells in the mag or just seven 2 3/4? I also bought a Magpul CTR stock for the Mesa Tactical buffer and a aluminum magazine follower. If you can I would get ctr stock. It fits great on the buffer
I have a question about the rivot you say that blocks putting a 7th shell in the tube. I have a new 870 and would like to get another tube for it that will allow the 7th shell. Do you have a sugestion on what brand to get and where to get one?
@BayAreaCowboy I haven't bought a forend tube to try it but I got 7 shells in the magazine with Hornady tap FPD rounds. It looks like Scattergun Technologies makes a magazine extension that flush with the 18.5 inch barrel and is smooth all the way. The "Rivot" blocks the magazine follower from moving any further thus preventing that last shell from getting in there. If you use 2 3/4 rounds you will see there is a little bit more room when you push. I meant to say crimped instead of rivet
Drill and thread some holes on top of the receiver for a rail to mount a sight on. Much lighter than that mount you have in the video. I think Brownells even sells a kit to do it.
@ARBuilder1776 Ya. I want the rail and ghost ring sights that come with the new 870s. I was thinking of buying ghost ring night sights and taking it to a gunsmith so he can attach the sights and remove the bead sight
@GOD719 hey walmart has a polymer lightweight plastic rail mount kinda like your metal one and thats what i use to hold my redot sight, and it doesnt scratch my finish.
@kekoa1969 Nothing wrong so far. it's built stronger than the standard AR buffers. only thing that I can see is scuff marks where the magpul ctr stock is rubbing against it
im stuck with a 18.5 barrel with RIFLE sights on it. meant for hunting turkey i believe....how bad is this??im not selling it or getting another oen cause of money and i just dont feel like dealing with it. would rifle sights be ok for a tac shotgun??
@NeedWarForPeace Are you good with the rifle sights? if yes, than they are fine. My sight is good for speed up close. Your sight is better for accuracy at longer distance so lets say if you had to fight someone in your house. My sight would be better. Now lets say you are fighting someone down the street at further distance, than your sight is better. The shooter is what makes the gun accurate. look up ghost ring sights, that's what I want to get
@GOD719 hmmm i suppose. a little practice with instinctive shooting at close range and some further range shooting practice with deer sights and ill be good:)
@nzoo11 Its too heavy and parts are very hard to come by. Also, look at that wire stock on the SPAS 12, do you want to shoot that a lot? It doesn't feel good.
@ARBuilder1776 i know but the one that ive seen has a normal grip stock and beeing heavy can be a plus if you use powerful rounds recoil wise and wasnt it made to be a carbine? but then again carbines are ment to be light so i dont know man but i agree with you on that wire stock ive shot 3in slugs from my 870 and my shoulder got real sore the next day
@nickizcool20 What recoil reducer do you have? Mesa Tactical, Blackhawk Knoxx stock, or Mako? At first my stock hurt but it got better after breaking it in. My barrel hardly moves an inch or two when firing 3" 000 buckshot
@NeedWarForPeace The longest you can get, it will just stick past the barrel if you get more than a 2 shot extension. If you are talking about whats the longest extension you can get so it's flush with the end of the barrel, than 2 shot extension which is what I have. You can put any extension on the shotgun 1,2,3, or 4. it will function normally just the mag extensions will be at different lengths
@NeedWarForPeace Mine came stock with the gun. I never seen them in a store sold separately until recently. Honestly, I use an improved choke all the time instead of the door breacher. I don't know how much they cost
How would you compare this stock to a specops stock? I like the look of this much better, but I guess the zombies won't care what my gun looks like when I am rapidly firing at them...
@robotmonkey73 KNOXX- light,cheap,plastic,2 recoil reduction systems,easy to install. MESA TACTICAL-heavier,aircraft aluminum,expensive, one really nice Enidine Shot Stock Hydraulic Buffer, harder to install(you need an AR wrench to install the buffer)
The Mesa tactical is really nice. The rubber Hogue pistol grip is comfortable. Mesa will last longer than the knoxx stock. if you can't afford the mesa, the Knoxx will be fine.
870 tactical comes with the breach. does not work as a flash supressor FYI. you can research yourself. I prefer to shoot law enforcement 00, they cram 12 pellet in thsoe mother fuckers. or centurions.
you should drill and tap your receiver for a top picatinny rail to mount your aimpoint to.. wont scratch the receiver and you can still use the side saddle... itll also give it more of a tactical look as well and save weight vs the mount you have
@kuyamike8 I don't think so. The Magpul pistol grips have a tab sticking out the back where it connects to adapter. The Mesa Tactical grip is square. If Magpul makes a grip that doesn't have that tab than ya
magpul and it looks like you can with the backstrap that's flush with the top of the grip. The Mesa tactical stock adapter runs straight back so the tabs wouldn't let you screw the pistol grip down making it useless. But any other grips from an AR will fit if it doesn't have a tab. Mesa tactical stocks come stock with a Hogue pistol grip which I think they use on ARs. I also put a Magpul CTR stock on the buffer which fits great.
Thats i nice gun. I believe in gun control but, damn I like that gun. I gonna go out and get me one and trick that bastard out. Then look out me and my kids are blow up some stuff.
@Hephistos Remington 870 Express synthetic=$520.00, Surefire forend weapon light= $395.00, Mesa Tactical LEO stock with recoil buffer tube=249.00, Mesa Tactical sureshell sidesaddle=59.00, Magpul CTR stock=96.99, Parkerized gun finish at local gunsmith=$135.00 Total 1,454.99. The look on the intruders face priceless. wait he won't have a face
@icetrey87 Less Muzzle jump. It wants to come back instead of UP and back. You don't get slapped in the face with the stock as hard. The muzzle still jumps a little but not as bad

thanks for the info on the surefire..these upgrades can get costly..the speedbead sight looks ideal for good cheek placement and is compact..would go well with your gun and the mounting is easy between the stock/gun. no permanent drilling..I have a high cheek rest with the Blackhawk knoxx recoil reducing stock with the powerpack attachment..the high sitting scope would be level with my 870, but i would not like the scratching of the gun part..i wonder if the speedbead is compatable with the Knox

@Drkojack im going to say yes. How the Knoxx attaches looks similar to the factory 870 stock.

Thanks for the good info..I am thinking of adding the surefire to my 870 tactical, but i am not too sure if it is cost effective. Also the added weight is a concern for me...Do you find the Red Dot scope to be of any use at range or long shot ? and does the mount for the scope secure tightly faced with continued use? Thanks again for the good feedback for other 870 owners.
Drkojack 1 year ago
@Drkojack It does add weight to the gun. Surefires are a little pricey but mine lasted two years now and the ergos are better than most light attachments. If you want something cheaper, you could buy a forend grip with picatinny rails on it and attach a TLR1 pistol light. I have one for my glock. it's a good light. My friend did that with his mossberg. I had no problems with the mount but it did scratch my gun so there is a little movement. but I'm able to hit coffee cans at 100 yards with it.
GOD719 1 year ago
@Drkojack Honestly, I would rather use open sights or the bead for up close. The sight blocks to much view up close. it's better at long range. I also don't like how the scope mount raises the sight so you have to take your cheek of the stock to look through the sight. I was looking into a sight called Speedbead. I would rather have the Speedbead on my gun than my sight. The Speedbead is lower to the gun and it's thinner so it won't block your view as bad

I got the same set up just alittle better. I got the picatinny/ghost ring sights on top. I put a mesa tactical sling ring on it for a sling. The new l.e.d. Surefire lite. Plus a Wilson Combats shot tube witch adds that extra round.

@ZombieJudd Ya I bought the new 200 lumen LM2-BK light. Just the light. Not the forend. Can you get seven 3" shells in the mag or just seven 2 3/4? I also bought a Magpul CTR stock for the Mesa Tactical buffer and a aluminum magazine follower. If you can I would get ctr stock. It fits great on the buffer

I have a question about the rivot you say that blocks putting a 7th shell in the tube. I have a new 870 and would like to get another tube for it that will allow the 7th shell. Do you have a sugestion on what brand to get and where to get one?
Thanks

BayAreaCowboy 1 year ago
@BayAreaCowboy I haven't bought a forend tube to try it but I got 7 shells in the magazine with Hornady tap FPD rounds. It looks like Scattergun Technologies makes a magazine extension that flush with the 18.5 inch barrel and is smooth all the way. The "Rivot" blocks the magazine follower from moving any further thus preventing that last shell from getting in there. If you use 2 3/4 rounds you will see there is a little bit more room when you push. I meant to say crimped instead of rivet

Drill and thread some holes on top of the receiver for a rail to mount a sight on. Much lighter than that mount you have in the video. I think Brownells even sells a kit to do it.

NeedWarForPeace 1 year ago
@NeedWarForPeace Are you good with the rifle sights? if yes, than they are fine. My sight is good for speed up close. Your sight is better for accuracy at longer distance so lets say if you had to fight someone in your house. My sight would be better. Now lets say you are fighting someone down the street at further distance, than your sight is better. The shooter is what makes the gun accurate. look up ghost ring sights, that's what I want to get

@NeedWarForPeace The longest you can get, it will just stick past the barrel if you get more than a 2 shot extension. If you are talking about whats the longest extension you can get so it's flush with the end of the barrel, than 2 shot extension which is what I have. You can put any extension on the shotgun 1,2,3, or 4. it will function normally just the mag extensions will be at different lengths

@robotmonkey73 KNOXX- light,cheap,plastic,2 recoil reduction systems,easy to install. MESA TACTICAL-heavier,aircraft aluminum,expensive, one really nice Enidine Shot Stock Hydraulic Buffer, harder to install(you need an AR wrench to install the buffer)
The Mesa tactical is really nice. The rubber Hogue pistol grip is comfortable. Mesa will last longer than the knoxx stock. if you can't afford the mesa, the Knoxx will be fine.

you should drill and tap your receiver for a top picatinny rail to mount your aimpoint to.. wont scratch the receiver and you can still use the side saddle... itll also give it more of a tactical look as well and save weight vs the mount you have

question will a magpul AR pistol grip fit on ur mesa
kuyamike8 1 year ago
@kuyamike8 I don't think so. The Magpul pistol grips have a tab sticking out the back where it connects to adapter. The Mesa Tactical grip is square. If Magpul makes a grip that doesn't have that tab than ya
GOD719 1 year ago
@GOD719 What about the MIAD Grip
magpul has a pistolgrip with interchangeable parts
kuyamike8 1 year ago
@kuyamike8 I Just looked at the MIAD Grip
magpul and it looks like you can with the backstrap that's flush with the top of the grip. The Mesa tactical stock adapter runs straight back so the tabs wouldn't let you screw the pistol grip down making it useless. But any other grips from an AR will fit if it doesn't have a tab. Mesa tactical stocks come stock with a Hogue pistol grip which I think they use on ARs. I also put a Magpul CTR stock on the buffer which fits great.
