I've found that most upgrades you make to the gun usually do no translate to any real increased value, except to you. You may be better off selling off the extra accessories you put on the shotgun separately to get more money. That would take a lot more effort, but it might be worth it.

Does anyone make a synthetic black forend for the Remington 870 that looks like the Benelli Nova forend? I like the styling of the European guns a little more, thanks!

Thanks for all the info! So only way is to transfer through an FFL, which would kill the deal since it would be for a 10/22 which is pretty cheap and readily available. I'll just wait for one in OH or locally find one, they seem to be everywhere anyways.

Gotcha, since it was a 10/22 and they are pretty readily available and inexpensive, the shipping + my FFL transfer fee pretty much will kill the deal. Thanks for the quick responses!

I live in OH, I might look to purchase a rifle from an individual who lives in KY. I know OH has the adjoining state law if I drive to a gun store and purchase it that way, I'm wondering can I have the guy who lives in KY ship the rifle directly to me or do I have to use an FFL, or am I able to...

I just had the epiphany today that there was an equipment exchange forum here, I've been posting mainly on the other gun websites. I might try to just hang onto this barrel for now, and purchase another barrel somewhere down the line. As far as the choke, I didn't get the choke...

Wow, thanks for answering a lot of my questions. I don't hunt or plan to anytime soon, so I will try to get a shorter barrel. I think the 24 will be perfect for what I need, thanks a lot!

Well.... just out of college, got student loans to pay back every month + insurance + living cost, and I'm looking for my first job in this great economy, so 90 dollars is a lot to me right now, I have no real income so I'm just living on my savings right now that I have from my previous...

Thanks for the link! I tried calling today, they are at Shot Show until tomorrow, so I'll try again tomorrow. I can only justify having 1 barrel right now, the one I have is too long so I will probably try to sell it. Can someone help me determine the real length? Here' some pics I took, the 0...

I would probably get a shorter barrel eventually, either a 20" or 18". The 30" I have has the ribbing on it, so I don't think I would be able to cut it anyways. I'll check the common classifieds and auction sites to find a good deal.

So after almost trading for a Remington 1100, I ended up finding a local trade for a brand new Buckmark Target w/ adjustable truglo sights and slab slide, wood grips, and a mint condition Remington 870 super magnum, 12 ga, 30 in barrel. Now I've got a couple questions, where is a good place to...

He's listed in ar15.com, here's the link, he wants 500 for both barrels, seem's like a standup guy. I'm in SW OH, he's in central OH: http://www.ar15.com/forums/topic.html?b=7&f=93&t=635319 Hope this is okay listing here, I have no affiliation besides almost buying the gun, I haven't...

I passed on the trade, and now am getting a Remington 870 Super magnum, and a new browning buckmark slab slide that I really wanted. Thanks for all the 1100 advice, I'll probably be asking about the 870 soon. The guy is about 10 mins away from me too, which is a huge factor for me. Thanks again.

Not sure if shooting it will possible, is there a good public range somewhere around Columbus, OH , or south by I-71? I would need a pistol + shotgun range.

I think I'm getting good value and an equal trade, I just don't want to drive home and find out the shotgun needs XX dollars to fix or improve to work properly, so I'm trying to figure out the area's where I should look for the common problems (if there are any) or whatever else.
