870 part replacement

I've got a Remy 870 with an 18"bbl and a two shot magazine extension, the "HD" version basically. At the end of the forend is a screwed on part which the magazine twists onto. In the time that I've had the shotty, this part has gotten scratched up somehow. Now I know to epect this with a shotty, but would like to replace it at some point. What's the name of this part? The owner's manual doesn't list it, all it says is "magazine cap" and I know it's not that. Thank you!

That's the magazine extension tube coupling, (Blue matte finish).
Part number 99833, price $13.50.

You can order it direct from Remington.

For ordering call: 1-800-243-9700.

Here's Remington's parts page:

The advantage to remington 870's is that everybody has one. You could walk into almost any gun shop in america and get a new cap.

Dfariswheel,
Thanks for the info. Had I actually taken the time to delve into Remington's webpage, I could have saved us both some time.

JohnBrowning,
I've seen the caps all over, but not the coupling, but I'll keep looking.

Thanks again!

Parrot,

Me and my silly mag extender! Its been so long since I handled a coupling that I didn't remember they existed, plus the wording of this thread kind of confused me.
