Remington model 58 barrels

[planetmobius]

I have a Remington model 58 in 12 ga that at one time belonged to my father. I currently have two barrels for it but would like to add a slug barrel to my collection. There are many areas by me that are 'shotgun only" and I would like to field it durring deer season. Recently I've been told that the 58 barrels are identical to those of the model 870 except for the gas port. I was also told that 870 barrels could be easily converted to function with the model 58. Does anyone have experience with such a barrel and can tell me who does this work.

Kuhnhausen recommends Wisner's, and that would be a good enough suggestion for me- contact them and see what they say about the job.
