870 Measurement Request

[Danen]

I was wondering if someone with an 870 12 gauge could provide me with the outside diameter of the forend tube assembly.
Much appreciated

 

[Dances with Drahts]

.856"

Is that for a 12 gauge? The mag tube on a 20 ga is 0.857 and the forend tube is 0.938

 

[Dances with Drahts]

My bad, 1.0055"

gotta remember to zero the scale.
do you want it in mm?

 

[Danen]

Thank you kindly

Hey Dances with Drahts

Did you measure the mag tube or the forend tube? My googlefoo returns 1" for the mag tube on a 12 gauge 870.
I would assume the forend tube would be a little bigger
Just confirming

Thanks again

The magazine tube on my old 12 gauge Wingmaster where the shiny spots are worn in the bluing from pumping the action the diameter measures 1 inch.

Wood will have to be removed for measurements of the forend tube.

He is wanting the OD of the tube the Forend attaches to...

I took the wood off it (I have the special wrench for it).

On my 870 Wingmaster the Forend tube OD is 1.081

The Mag tube OD is 1.000

Thank you very much for this measurement, exactly what I was asking for.
