if im not mistaken, magpul released the SGA for the first little while and the mossberg one followed shortly after.

It's a marketing decision. There are more 870's out there than there are Mossberg this is evident in how many more accessory options are available to the 870 over the Mossberg's.

Although, because of so many adapters out there, most 870 stocks will fit to the Mossy's. Which again brilliant marketing on Magpul. "Oh hey! You got a Mossy? Great, with a simple 870 adapter you can have this unfair advantage too! Unless you don't mind waiting a year to get the specific accessory!" In most cases people will buy the 870 part and use the adapt, but in many cases they'll do that and then the right one later on if they liked the stock. Some might even buy an 870 to put the first set of furniture on ((since 870's can be dirt cheap used)). Either way Magpul makes bucks.

Some insight - in 2014 we sold more Mossberg SGA stocks than Remington SGA stock.

Cool! Though the 870 is still the most produced shot gun in the world; second place is the Mossy 500 series.

Either way I know I'm Magpul's B**** and will be getting this stock. So far they're batting 100 on everything I've purchased; and there's been a lot! I could probably cover every inch of one the gun safes with just Magpul Stickers.
 
The 700 Hunter is now available for purchase on the Magpul Site (sucks to be Canadian :-/ ) any word on when/if they will be available for import?
 
Available for purchase now by dealers/distributors, but delivery is schedule for April 2015.

We are currently debating the pros and cons of offering presales of the stocks and accessories - the fluctuating dollar is giving us some pause.

that's fair, eagerly awaiting there arrival. I was so happy to see magpul release this, save me more than a bit of cash vs. other comparable chassis. Leaps and bounds better than the Archangel stock!

2.9 lbs for the stock alone
Available in Black, Flat Dark Earth, OD Green and Stealth Gray
Only Right Hand and in Short Action now

Should be arriving in April/May 2015
 
There are no limits on legal mag size for the AICS, they are designed for bolt action centerfires, and those dont have mag limits.

That said, i dont know if they sell any larger ones than 10 rounds.
 
The ones provided by Magpul will be 5-rounds with a tab that can be snapped off on the follower so it can accommodate 6 rounds.

The magazine holds five rounds as packaged to comply with hunting regulations

I am not familiar with any hunting regs other than Ontario's, which does not limit magazine capacity on pump/bolt/lever rifles for hunting. Can someone shed light on which provinces limit manual action rifle magazines to five rounds for hunting?
 
It isnt a canada specific law, many places in the states limit to 5 round mags for hunting. So they ship with a 5 round, if you need the limit to hunt with then leave it that way, if not break the tab and fit an extra round.
