DNP Posted March 3, 2022 Report Share Posted March 3, 2022 Just put the money in on an 870. Looks similar to that HHD, but has a shorter tube. Considering adding the Nordic to it. Don’t think I’ll switch up to the magpul furniture right away - I kinda like the look of the standard wood furniture on it. Anything else I should be looking at for a house gun?

DNP Posted March 3, 2022 Report Share Posted March 3, 2022 They didn’t have those. Stuff has been out of stock around here for so long. I figured the 870 was more budget friendly than the Beretta 1301. And it is the HHD version, though in the 4 round config. That gets fixed first. I like the Vang Comp sights, but they cost damn near as much as the gun. Might put the XS rail on it like I have on the marlin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shooterrex Posted March 3, 2022 Report Share Posted March 3, 2022 I've had a 870 for over 30years. It still works just fine. I have a 590 too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DNP Posted March 18, 2022 Report Share Posted March 18, 2022 Picked it up yesterday. Now to start thinking about what to add…beyond the plus 2 extension. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cunuckgaucho Posted March 18, 2022 Report Share Posted March 18, 2022 Other than the +2, I'd leave it alone, got to love those classic lines. Well maybe swap out the front bead/sight for a hi-vis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shooterrex Posted March 18, 2022 Report Share Posted March 18, 2022 Sling swivels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unforgiven Posted March 18, 2022 Report Share Posted March 18, 2022 Nice shotty add both extras Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bubbas4570 Posted March 18, 2022 Report Share Posted March 18, 2022 Something better for sights for home defense. Furniture upgrades......only if standard shotgun stuff doesn't work for you. (I prefer standard stocks and such) I personally don't like a sling on my shottie, but if it works for you..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DNP Posted March 18, 2022 Report Share Posted March 18, 2022 I think the extension and sights are the plan right now. It’s mainly going to be an around the house gun, so I don’t think I’m going to sling it for the time being. I like the wood furniture. Might look at a clamp for a light as well.

It’s a bad bitch. I didn’t want to spend that much on a shotgun right now. Just knew I wanted one that wasn’t barreled for birds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AngelDeVille Posted March 7, 2023 Report Share Posted March 7, 2023 (edited) unfortunately the original poster could not decide on a shotgun, and was tickled to death by marauding clowns three years ago..... all of this could have been prevented with and Ithaca 37 or a mossberg with walnut furniture Edited March 7, 2023 by AngelDeVille Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turd Furgeson Posted March 8, 2023 Report Share Posted March 8, 2023 First, I love shotguns... however, for home defense, unless you're wearing ear protection, I would be concerned about lighting one up inside the house. A 12ga pushes 160 dB. IMO, anything in the house should be suppressed. My two cents... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
