REmington 870 wood stock Question

[Biohazard1993]

Hi my fellow Highroaders... Highroadians? Anyway, I have a question about a remington 870. I have a remington 870 20 gauge that I want to get wood furniture for because... well wood is awsome, especially with one of those old leather army slings I have in the back of my closet which doesnt look so good with the synthetic . Will a 12 gauge wood set fit at all, maybe only the stock or at the pump, or will it not fit at all in any way? Thanks.

12 ga won't fit.

You will need a 20 gauge stock. I know some have a few things to say about Ebay but I have had wonderful experiences with them. I do know that Remington stocks are listed on Ebay. You will be able to find Wingmaster and Express stocks there.

The only 20 ga that a 12 ga stock will fit is the standard weight 20 ga. Like others have said, it will not work with the light weight 20.

Try Wenig gunstocks. They make some beautiful stuff.

Thanks.wenig does make some beautiful stocks . Does anyone have anything to say about the wood thumbhole stocks on a shotgun, I know it looks less traditional but does it have any advantages/dissadvantages over a traditional stock?

The more vertical your grip, the more muzzle climb there will be from a shot. Thumb hole stocks aren't ideal for bird hunting, but for turkey and slug guns they have their uses for some.
