I have an HD 870 and I'm short with short arms. I put a Remington "Youth" buttstock on it and it fits very well. I found no need to change the standard black synthetic forend, but I have the "Youth" size forend that came in the package. In fact, the shorter forend requires a longer reach because the reduction in length is achieved by eliminating the portion of the forend that overlaps the receiver when in its rearmost position. PM me if you really think you need a smaller forend stock.
