Hey folks, oping to get a little advice from S&J and/or the Gunnutz community.
Recently bought a bunch of upgrades for my new 870P, including an S&J jumbo safety (love it) and a combo +2 magazine extension and bayonet lug kit.
Also bought an Ontario Knife Co. M7 bayonet from another source, which I assumed should fit as any other AR-15 bayonet would. However as shown below, it appears that something is out of spec. The ring on the bayonet that should be connecting with the end of the magazine tube is sitting about a quarter inch too far forward. It clips into the lug at the pommel as it should, but without the ring supporting it at the front, it's barely held on.
Not sure if I've made a mistake of some kind with installing this? Or if the bayonet is out of spec? If the latter, what bayonets work well with these S&J setups? I have a line on an Eickhorn C7 bayonet, but I don't want to drop a considerable amount of money on it without knowing whether it'll fit my shotgun.
Any advice would be appreciated. For clarity - this is not a rip on S&J. I'm very pleased with the products I've bought (especially that safety). Just a little mystified at the bayonet issue...
