For Christmas this year, Santa Claus got me some new furniture for my Remington 870 Express a la Magpul. I've had the shotgun for a few months now and this was the first time I've ever taken it down. Usually I just run a bore snake through it, give the working parts a couple of shots of G96 and leave it at that. I know some people who never clean their shotties out of principle.
I got the SGA stock and the fore end in Flat Dark Earth, and I also got the sling plate as well.
Talk about some quality parts. I took my 870 apart with relative ease and the Magpul parts installed with such precision, you'd think they were hand-crafted. There was no modding, no smithing, no grinding or cutting. The old furniture came off, the Magpul stuff just slipped on.
I'm pretty happy with the feel of the new furniture, but let's see how it works out at the range.
