I'm thinking ass less chaps.

Soon to be bull barreled and stocked. I have the barrel, stock is still being shipped. Hope it doesn't blow up in my face when I fire the first round ;p

I just gota get a nice optic on her :)
 
the only thing I like about the 870 is the fact it can have an extended magtube put on. Mossbergs have to be ordered factory extended or else you just have to live with ''only'' 6 rounds. ;) but otherwise, Mossberg FTW. I mean, c'mon...the 870 dont even have a tang safety for chrissakes! LMAO

That is a nice looking 870 man.

I really do need to get a new shotgun sometime soon. My Ithaca 16 is really a bird gun but its been getting by as a deer gun. its a smooth bore and the barrel seems like it's 5feet long haha. My biggest problem is that i just love that gun so much. I think the controls are laid out perfectly and I like that its bottom eject. Not really sure why I like bottom eject more. Perhaps cleaner looking lines from the side. It really sucks the new Ithacas are so damn expensive.

I will probably end up snagging a used 870 with a deer barrel. Who knows. My buddy has a Bellini M4, God that is a gorgeous gun but I Have a thing for pumps. I like seeing the pics of the shotguns though! I really need to take some of mine.

I'm with you on the extended mag tube. I was on ithacas site and saw they had a home defense model that came with an extended tube! Very nice, to be honest though idk if I could even get one in NY.
 
I have a maverick before the 870. I have to say first that I am not trying to start a heated debate. I like the 870 better, and the mossbergs rattle to much for me. They feel like an AK-47, and the remington feels like an AR-15. Everyone has their own opinion, like for instance I hate glocks.

Yeah my old mans rattles a little bit but its a nice looking gun. I know a few other guys that have them as well and love them. The 870 just looks better to me for some reason. But then again I have never had my hands on an 870.

Truth is they are both great guns, but its like ford n chevy. I love my 870, looked at a few 500's too. I like having the extended mag tub, and mine came with a threaded barrel for different chokes, and ghost rings sights.

Definitely something I need to think about over the summer, too hard to swing while in school. Summer job might change that. It's been too long since I've gotten a new gun lol.

That's a sweet looking 870. I have been thinking about getting a Mossberg 500 and making it look a little like that. How is she?
 
so first u put up pics of the 870...then u compare it to a Maverick which is the economy version of the Mossberg...then you sass the greatest polymer pistol of all time!? my lord son. and BTW I'm a Chevy man, I'm guessing u drive a Fix Or Repair Daily lol


;) luckily I'm all giddy about actually making a set of Micarta succesfully...happy happy joy joy Good Mood
 
The 870 tactical is a great platform and it comes with a lot of extras. I looked at the plain jane 870 and to make it look like how I wanted it woulda cost more. I don't know much about the mossberg version. The stock setup I did was pretty cheap, but you can get some more expensive stuff if you want. Mine also came with a rail on top for a sight. She shoots great, and the ghost rings work amazing.

I am more of a german auto guy myself, drive an A6, and have a 1970 BMW(had a 67 bug for a bit too) ;) I don't know why, but I hate glocks. I do have an XD that is awesome. I know the maverick is not the same as the 500, and I made sure to handle both before I decided. I would be just fine with a 500, but I like the 870 more. I would take chevy over ford though, so I hope that means we are still friends ;)
