Hi!
I'm pretty new shotgunner and I always used friends' Mossbergs 500 and 590 before. But when it came to buying a shotgun for myself I came across this Remington 870 Magnum Express 12/76 and got it.
I have to change a few things to get it shooting more efficiently in dynamic matches - I want to change the stock forend and stock (they are checkered wood), hopefully trigger group (triggerguard is to small for me and a trigger too narrow and short and too heavy also) and sights (I got U-notch rear with a white mark and a white dot rifle-like front sight).
I'm thinking of buying:
- magazine extension to 7-8 rounds
- Cabellas' laminate thumbhole stock and forend (are they any good? Do You think pistol grip stock would be better?)
- change trigger group (metal triggerguard, please! But with the pushbutton safety like the stock triggerguard has!)
- change sights to something more visible and quicker (but without modifying the sights bases if possible)
- fit a barrel heat shield (that would clear the existing rear sight base).
Please advise (and direct me to a internet shop that would ship to Europe)!
