Many of you know about the Remington 870. If you don't, well, you came to right place. In the early 1950's the guys at Remington designed a new pump shotgun. They needed a name for it and one of them looked at the proposal and saw that the raw materials to build the weapon cost $8.70. Thus was born the best pump shotgun ever built. The design was so advanced and solid that there have been very few upgrades over the years and even those have been minor. That old 870 of your Dad's is as good a weapon as anyone is building today. The proof of this are all the departments that have wandered off to other shotguns over the years only to return to the Remington 870. All the guys out there that grew up with the 870 and were lured away by the Marketing of other manufacturers but have since came back to Remington.
I attended the Factory Law Enforcement Armorers Course in Illion NY and thanks to the skills of the Instructors, I passed. I came home and offered my services to those Departments that are to small to have an Armorer. The weapons I build have been catching on and an LEO contacts me, receives his weapon and within days others in his department are calling. Kind'a like rabbits breeding. The guys on www.gunbroker.com have been keeping me busy also.
What I do is take a factory new 870 receiver and upgrade it. I have a large selection of barrels and stocks. I feature the Knoxx stock. If you don't know about these amazing things go to www.knoxx.com and watch the video on the SpecOps and the SpecOps folder. I also feature Speed Feed Stocks and Remington Stocks. I can add any of the Sure Fire forends and to see what is available go to www.surefire.com . I also feature the Mesa Tactical shell holders and they can be seen at www.mesatactical.com . I have to tell all of you that the guys at Mesa Tactical are some of the coolest guys in this business and have a lot of products for tactical application. They are easy to work with and all their products are duty quality. I use the Midwest Industry sling plates and the Wilson Combat plates. I feature the Remington LE tube Extensions and all the Wilson Combat tube extension. I have Meprolight rifle night sights by Kimber and trijicon rifle sights. I also install Trijicon Ghost Ring Night Sights.
I also build on new Remington 870 Police Receivers and have them with factory installed Wilson Combat Ghost Ring Sights. I can install the Trijicon Ghost Ring sights on the standard P receivers if you want. The weapons I build on the P receiver will have all P parts including the trigger assembly and bolt assembly.
I can also take your 870 or 11-87 and rebuild it for you. Doesn't matter how beat up it is, you will get back a like new weapon and not just on the outside. My rebuild customers have been very pleased and a few even bought new weapons after seeing what I did with the old 870 that had been in the gun safe for years. A feature I provide that they all loved is that as I am working on the weapon I send you pics in the e-mail so you can keep track of the progress. When you get that last pic you know it will be shipped the next day........The best part is I get to test fire all those great Remington's.
You can design the weapon you want and I will build it. My shelves are stocked with every thing I offer so unless you get wild with what you want on the weapon, the build time is hours not days. I am an FFL dealer and an Authorized Remington Parts Dealer and I buy a large volume and receive great discounts. Best thing is I pass that on to you in the price of the weapon.
You can go to www.gunbroker.com and read over 280 A+ ratings under the user name aippi. I have never gotten less then an A+.
Again here are the links for the accessories I use. As you are designing your weapon go to the links to see the items you are considering. I keep my website small by not having to post pictures of all these products, besides the manufacturer sites are better and the pics are better so go to each site and pick the products you want me to use. Call or e-mail me with any questions about any of these products. If it is on my website it is duty quality but many items are a matter of preference and work better for specific use, SO ASK BEFORE YOU HAVE IT PUT ON YOUR WEAPON....
