LOL, cool. Lets see some pics when its done.

Will do. It may be a little bit before I do it though unless someone buys the barrel and magazine tube. Too many irons in the fire at the moment.

Update, 4/3/17

Could not help myself so, I added a SpeedBead Red Dot mount with a Vortex Venom Red Dot. Yeah, I know. Now I really have way too much invested in this Old Remmy, LOL.

It is kind of cool though but, it's mine and it works. Think I'm done with it now.

Interesting, I have pondered putting an optic on my 870, but more like a MRO, I'll be interested in hearing how it performs

Sweet set-up

I totally see where you were thinking from the beginning, I had this beat up 870 I wanted to make into a HD weapon. I spent over 3 weeks researching different blogs about replacing parts ,upgrading parts,etc,etc...I lost interest on the amount of effort it was going to take,(getting old and time isn't on my side anymore)...fast forward a week or two . I just happen to stop by Forsyth County Pawn and was looking at the used shotgun hoping to find one that says buy me...Telling the guy behind the counter what my end game was, he looks at me and smiles why don't you just by this one?

I said. I didn't want to spend $650+ and then another $200 on the tax, well he smiled and said how does $500 out the door sound? I placed $100 on the counter and said I'll see you Monday with Trust in hand.
granted I'm in this for $700 including ATF stamp and a 8+ month wait ,
273 days later ,I added a gen3 spec ops knoxx stock and fore arm, Mesa tactical side saddle and Wilson +1 extension and follower... +$200 more

Waiting on the light and my labor of HD love is finished!

I'm Confused. What made it require the ATF Stamp??

I like it. Keep it, you'll regret letting it go.

Not letting it go. Not my intention since I have now put so much into it. That would be a little crazy.
