That is some awesome fire power. And nice choke tubes. That is a must in my book

I like the door breacher tube you've got on the end of the Remington.

the nice thing about a choke in you tactical barrel is then you can put full chokes in for tighter patterns and if you have to hunt with the gun it will help

My shotgun came in the mail the other day. ![[Linked Image from i1091.photobucket.com]](http://i1091.photobucket.com/albums/i393/amflud/063.jpg) ![[Linked Image from i1091.photobucket.com]](http://i1091.photobucket.com/albums/i393/amflud/062-1.jpg) ![[Linked Image from i1091.photobucket.com]](http://i1091.photobucket.com/albums/i393/amflud/064.jpg) I definately won't be firing any magnum loads with that stock.

Thanks for all of the resopnses and input, everyone.
Well, after having shot this thing a few times I now have "the bug". I know I'll be repalacing the forend and barrel with one that will accept choke tubes. Probably buy a few different options for the stock (I almost said stock options) and some type of light.
Now I'm thinking I "need" an 870 in 20 gauge. It will be for my wife, of course.
To be continued . . . .

But my Mossberg was my "Riot gun", until I found out it had an illegal barrel,that I GOT RID OF! I don't mind going to jail 5 nights a week, but I DO like coming home every morning. Now I gotta find another barrel for it. 500C pump.

I like pistol grip buttstocks, but not for a fore end.

My thoughts are all over the place with this thing. I might just turn this one into a bird gun and use the 20 gauge as my hd gun.

I got my Glock yesterday. That one will probably get it's own thread.
