Canada Ammo - Nov 25th - THE GRIZZLY'S have arrived!

[Zall-x]

did you have to mod the heat shield to fit?? love the look on the shorty.

 

[ThatM305Guy]

Any chance we will be able to buy the rear sight for those of us who bought the barrels with the ramp sight?

Apparently there are some in parts. I'm still waiting for a response, but shoot them an email if you need one.

Looks nice~~~ I am still thinking 8.5" or 12.5" which one is better. Since i don't want mag feed, 8.5" only 2+1 compare 12.5" 4+1 but 4" longer. Hard decision~~~

I sold my 8.5" to finance a 12 inch. 8.5" is a 1 trick pony, whereas the 12" will take any 870 pattern barrel. That way I can wap between 12, 18, 20, 30....whatever. That way I can get the ultimate enjoyment out of my Lego gun <3

Any 8.5" standalone barrel I can buy?

 

[ThatM305Guy]

My 12.5 was threaded. It was also drilled/tapped for a scope rail and came with a rail in the box. Center Griz. and bottom pic

Where'd you find the heat shield??

ATI heat shield that I cut down and dremelled out a notch to fit over the front sight.

Which end did you cut down? It almost looks in the picture like you welded a tab on the end that the mag cap holds on?

Does this 12.5" BARREL fit in the "Remington 870 Express 3-1/2'' 12-Gauge Super Magnum"? Any modification needed during the installation?

This and more details can be found in.plenty of other threads. Short answer is yes.

The heat shield is for a 18" barrel. Just cut the back end off at the correct length then make a rectangular notch to fit over the front sight, leave the front 1/2" or so intact and notch back from that point.

 

[EL34/6L6]

I would advise against that, as doctored heatshields on shotguns often end up looking bowed, twisted and cheap. Especially the ATI ones.

heatshields is useless except for wanna be look good

just saying

100% disagree, shoot a competition, most guys flip their shotgun upside down to load, then your dealing with a hot barrel, they figured this out in 1914 and started putting heat sheilds on trench guns, has a very practical use.

 

[jcoulson64]

Can someone confirm the regs for me? Is there an overall length requirement on shotguns? Like can one take the 8.5 and pistol grip it without turning it restricted?

Still has to be OAL of 26" I believe? Someone can correct me if iam wrong

 

[MartNutz]

@ jcoulson64 & Craig0ry : I did my homework on that when I bought a 8.5 and telescopic stock: need to be over 26'' to be non-restricted (I had to put rivet on the tube to keep it going lower than 26'')

 

[jcoulson64]

Thanks Martnutz

no minimum for a fixed-stock shoulder fired gun if factory made

Any chance of an 8.5" standalone barrel we can buy?
