Hello All,
As most of you know, I have a police trade-in 870P I picked up a few weeks back (my first shotgun!). The police installed a hard plastic side-saddle with the gun that is affixed to the left side of the trigger plate by screws that they used instead of the pins that are supposed to go through the gun.
I am torn as to whether I want the side-saddle on there or not, and wanted to give it a shot w/o. So I ordered the front and rear trigger plate pins from midwayusa.com this morning. After ordering, it dawned on me that the pins may just fall out, because more than likely the police drilled the holes to fit the screws. I'm very pissed off if this is the case. If the holes are now a larger diameter than the pins, and they won't stay secured in the gun, does anyone have any ideas on what to do? I could somehow have some screws machined to the right length I suppose, but that's a pain in the ass and ugly!! :banghead:
