Lightbulb I Also Drank The Remington Koolaid

...I drank both the Glock Koolaid today and the Remington Koolaid too. While purchasing a Glock 22 .40 S&W, a Remington 870 tactical shotgun caught my eye. I held it, fondled it and ended up buying it. Like the Glock, no pictures yet but I'll have some posted soon.

Re: I Also Drank The Remington Koolaid

I looked at the 870's before I got the 835 Mossy. I just liked the Mossy better. Mostly because of where the safe is located. I hate the safes on the trigger guards.

Can't beat a good Rem 870 or a Mossberg 500.

Re: I Also Drank The Remington Koolaid

Thank you Deputy, I do look forward to running it through it's paces. What do you keep in your 870 while on patrol, just out of curiosity?

Re: I Also Drank The Remington Koolaid

Are police dept.got a new moss 500 for there new 1968 Chevy crosier.
In 2004 while pulling the lights + radio out of there 2000 ford cruiser to go to the junk yard I found the gun in the trunk rusted so bad the holding bracket would not unlock so they said screw it so I cut it out with a torch.It had 3 rounds of buck shot 1 in battery with the safety off.
Pointing rite at the back driverside side seats...
I took it outside the highway garage and let it rip. All 3 fired and it worked like a new one.It hadn't been fired 25 times in all those years.

I didn't have a camera then , but boy it cleaned up just rite with a WACKO touch to boot.Ill take a picture of it..I pulled the slug barrel off and made a 18 1/2" ploy choke barrel from a 28" ploy choke barrel.
Polished the receiver added new black nylon to the stock + forend. And a heat shield , sling.
