Customizing 870

One of the things I'm considering doing is putting a pistol grip on my 870 HD. I don't want the pistol grip only configuration, but instead a pistol grip plus stock combination. What options do I have to do this, and can anyone direct me to a site that sells the parts?

I recently put a speed feed 4 on my 870P. It is the short stock version. I think they make some of the highest quality stocks for this. I believe I ordered from RR Sports on the web (do a search for them and pick the cheapest). About $85 for the set. I love this set up, but kinda miss the standard wood it came with.

Mine doesn't have the shell holder in the stock, but I'm curious to see how well that works.

Best, Coop

Choate sells a large varity of pistol grip/stock models. Their stocks are some of the best available.


Choate's home page:

A company that discounts their products:

Brownell's at: www.brownells.com
sells some of them.

Has Choate improved their product? I had ordered a PG stock many years ago...fit and finish were terrible, I ended up giving it away it was so ugly, like a ham-fisted carver had prepared the mold...
