I want to increase capacity on my factory 4 rd 1187 remington, but I do NOT want to gain capacity at the expense of reliablity. In this vein I have two questions.

1.- Brownells list three makers of mag ext. for my gun, Wilson, Choate and Tacstar. Is either one better/worse or are they the same quality. Is there a best extension out there?

2.- I saw on the Bushmaster webpage LE CHoate mag extension for 7, 9 and 10 rounds. Will these larger cap (than the regular 2-3 rds extension) work as well as the other.

Again the key for me is not compromising reliablity.

Thx to all for taking time out to read this and for making this such a great forum.
