Try Bill Gillette of Big Ridge Gun Smiths, currently seen at big clay shoots. He's got a good rep and knows 870s. Cell phone # 561-371-3685, he's on the road.

(Picking myself up after being stuck by a thought) I suggest first giving it a good cleaning with a gun scrubber like the 725 Cleaner I've written about here from SLIP 2000. Did Frankenstein's TG last night and was amazed at the stuff that came floating out. Relubed with SLIP, of course.

Reason I suggest this is I've run across a few bad triggers that were much better after degrunging. 870s should run 3 1/2 to 6 lbs. Couple of mine came in under 4 from the factory.

HTH....

PS, watch for a new thread about triggers...
