Hi Friends-

Planning on purchasing a new Rem 870 that will be shipped out to either SGT, VangComp, or ROBAR for final touches.

Which would be the better "base gun" to begin modifying? Is the Rem 870 Police Magnum a strengthened version as compared to the Rem 870 Express? What's different, aside from visible things like the synthetic stocks vs. wood?

Seems you can obtain the Police Magnum with an 18" barrel. Conveniently, it wouldn't have to be cut and crowned afterwards.

There is a considerable price difference, a basic Express starts around $250 here in the Northeast. The parkerized Police Magnum w/extended magazine tube runs about $420.

What are some of your feelings on the "essential modifications" to the shotgun that would make it a truly complete and effective tool?

I'm pretty experienced with pistols, but this shotgun thing is a new game for me! Your input and suggestions will be sincerely, sincerely appreciated. Thanks.
