    Remington 870 12ga + lots of Magpul goodies + a few internal upgrades (safety & follower)

    M&P 9 w/ "Magpul FDE" Cerakoat

    Not an exact match...unfortunately...but pretty close!

    My apologies for the dark photos. It was using my phone...

    Very nice!

    I'll take those off your hands for you, wouldn't want a "not exact match" ruining your collection...:):

    Special Thanks go to:

    www.hartatac.com / hoosierdoc for selling me the Magpul goodies...

    Havlin's Firearms Finishing / Squirt239 for the Cerakoat work...

    Brownells for a replacement part + follower

    USDS for the safety and the knowledge on how to put it in the correct way... :whistle:

    And no - this isn't the project I first envisioned it would be. This shotgun was/is an almost pristine Express.

    I DID find a well-used 870 Wingmaster - but it was going to cost $100+ more in "upgrades" to get it where I wanted to end up than this gun...which I bought very reasonably from a family friend.

    My original idea was to emulate the Cabela's gun...but then I bought the MP stuff in FDE then wanted to match it. The Cabela's color is more tan/coyote. Still sharp looking, too!
