New Magpul 870 Accessories

Looks bulkier and heavier than factory furniture- I'd like to compare them side by side.

The appeal of a combat/tactical shotgun to me is how streamlined they are. I really like the side-mount sling option for the stock... but not sure it would be worth the bulk.

If nothing else, you can make your shotgun look like the laser rifles we'll be hunting dinosaurs with once we figure out time travel. That looks like something out of Star Wars.

I'm with you on that. Somehow, I doubt that Magpul would block the loading port, but I find it interesting that they chose to picture the unit with a four-reload side-saddle rather than with a six. Certainly, some manufacturers of saddles have had problems matching handguards/slides/forends with six-reload saddles.

I like the fore end. I love my Speed Feed stock so I don't want to change it but the fore end with the slots of the light kit would be a great upgrade for mine.

There's a lot of valid questions and a lot of speculation here. I assure you, we will have more information during SHOT show.

Merry Christmas to all.

I would like to get my hands on one to test out. It'd be nice to see how it performs in actual use vs internet theories and pre production negativity.

If they'd release a stock for the Mossberg 930 and 590 Series I'd be all over that. Stock Mossbergs are known for their overly-long LOP.

But SHOT show is so far away and you know how impatient us gun guys can be.
