870 Adaptor for Turkish Shotguns

[rayzorloo]

Hey CGN, I have one of those adaptors from Canada Ammo so that I can put on 870 Magpul furniture on my ATA Etro. Apparently these adaptors should work for most Turkish shotguns. I'm having a bit of trouble, has anyone been successful getting theirs to work on their ATA Etro shotgun? My issue is that the nut/screw for the 870 Magpul stock is too long, it stops threading in.

Thanks

Buy yourself a shorter screw. The magpul thread is a standard, albeit a fine thread if I recall

Yeah that's what I was thinking but I thought the adaptor would've been all I needed.

Just cut it shorter?

That would work, but then its no good if he wants to swap the stock around.

Ive found different length stock bolts at Home Depo or one of the other big box stores before, take the bolt in and compare threads. Shouldn’t be to hard to get one in a shorter length.

1/4x28 in a cap head is a hassle to find, I would probably cut it and see if magpul could send me an extra bolt.

The down side to buying a knock off stolen product from canada ammo
I really should ask them for my samples back

I had that issue as well trying to get a 870 stock on my Hatsan. I was trying to use a 870 Express and screw, but the screw was too long. If I cut it, it would still need to be threaded to even screw in. I tried adding spacers and washers to get it to work, but the inside hole the screw runs through ended up splitting because the 870 Express plastic is so thin and weak. So maybe you could try adding some spacers to make it work?

I ended up just using a stock from my DA Grizzly. It has a shorter screw, and is much more durable so it threaded in tight.

Had the same issue using one on a Hatsan. Cut bolt down and worked excellent.

From what I remember Canam asked for samples, then wanted S&J to give them a better wholesale price or they would take their design and get it made cheaper somewhere else. Which it seems they did.
