I am building up the used Remington 870 Police that I bought a month or so ago for home defense. I have now added synthetic stocks, mag extension, and a Surefire 618FA.
Now I am about to purchase a 6 shot side saddle (is any one of these any better than another or should I just get a Tac-Star for around $ 22). I also am working on a deal to buy a used 18" Police Barrel (my Remington came with a 20" barrel that I am keeping for use on another 870 I have). I am going to buy an Uncle Mike's regular nylon sling to have, but not keep on the shotgun. I am also probably going to buy an oversized safety from Wilson along with some of the bright green mag followers.
The final touch is the addition of ghost rings. I have read a lot about these, but would like a new round of everyone's opinions, please.
I am trying to decide the following: What kind of ghost ring? Do I want wings around the front post or not? Do I need tritium in the front post and the rear, just the front, or not at all?
Thank you in advance for any input you can give me.
