HISTORY AND EVALUATION OF REMINGTON 870 STOCK
The Remington 870 Stock is versatile. In his homeland, in the United States, this is the choice of everyone - from hunters to policemen. The Remington 870 Stock is used by the US Armed Forces and law enforcement agencies and is still in active use today. Also, this gun is used by law enforcement agencies and the armies of many other countries. To know more information about this.
For the US police, a special model was developed - the Remington 870 Stock Police. The details of these guns are carefully selected and assembled in a separate workshop. The extractor in the police shotgun is milled - unlike the powder metallurgical extractor of the standard Remington 870 Express - and many of the springs used in the construction are reinforced to increase reliability and reliability in operation. The base of the Remington 870 Police trigger mechanism is made of metal - in the standard model it is polymer.
One of the biggest benefits of the Remington 870 Stock is the almost limitless choice of gun accessories, tuning options and customizations. A wide range of accessories means that any shooter - regardless of anthropometric data, personal preferences or the tasks set for himself and the weapon - will be able to completely "fit" the gun to himself. And when the gun suits you perfectly, then shooting becomes much more convenient!
Remington 870 owners have access to a wide variety of stocks (including recoil compensated, etc.), forend, sights, straps, mounts for cartridges on the receiver and many other accessories. The Remington 870 shotgun can be equipped with a wide variety of barrels - including full-rifled ones. You can choose a short barrel for better maneuverability - for example, if the gun is going to be used for self-defense or if you have to find out where the cunning boars are hiding in the thickets. The long barrel with a ventilated bar and interchangeable choke points is useful when hunting game birds - or in sports disciplines where such game is imitated by ceramic plates of orange color.
The fact that pump-action shotguns are allegedly not suitable for hunting or sporting shooting is nothing more than a myth, it is not clear where, by whom and why he was born and has no real reason. The barrel of the gun is thick-walled, made of 4140 steel, with a chrome-plated bore. Its resource is at least 30,000 shots. It is safe to say that with careful care.
The Remington 870 Stock can be equipped with both classic rifle sights, consisting of only one front sight, and rifle sights, which also include an open rear sight. The police version of the gun can be equipped with a full diopter type.
As noted above, there are many tuning options available for the Remington 870 - which is also true for sights. Rifle sights are easiest to change as they are removable. You may have to tinker with the classic front sight on the pedestal.
In addition to the factory variants, there are a huge number of alternative sights available for the Remington 870. You can choose inexpensive fiber optic light-collecting front sight and rear sight - or expensive tritium (which will glow in the darkest darkness continuously for 12 years - and on sheer enthusiasm, that is, without the help of any energy sources). There are also kits that allow you to attach the diopter sights to any variant of the Remington 870; however, for this you need to drill the receiver, and then cut the threads in the holes obtained.
