Missed my 870 with 14" barrel, I had to leave the barrel behind! So manoeuvrable in IDPA matches.

Just placed an order for the carrier dog follower spring as well for a mag tube spring... if its anything like your green magazine followers (which I run in my KSG, 870, and DA 8.5) I know i'll be happy.

Literally took me approx 1 minute to replace the old spring and put this spring in. The non mim extractor about the same amount of time.

Do you find much of a difference with it? I honestly never had an issue with mine but decided to upgrade it. The non MIM extractor is a must though, I had mine break around the 100rd mark while I was out in the woods and it sucked. I honestly never thought it would break and people where just paranoid. I was completely wrong.

Definitely a stiffer Spring, when you have the silver one out you can feel the difference between them both. From what I’ve read the stronger spring may prevent misfeeds if you ever rapid fire the 870. Doubt I’ll have a need to do this but it’s reassuring having the upgraded parts especially after reading about your extractor issue.
