where to get a replacement non-lock trigger guard for a 870r 870

Well it looks like thenew 870 with factory 2 shot extension does have the locking trigger group. Where can I get a non locking, pre PC trigger guard?

No need to buy an entire new guard, just by an old type safety and replace the PC model.

If you must have a new guard, check Gun Parts Corp, or watch Ebay, they turn up there often under "remington 870"

Watch that little spring when you slide out the retaining pin! Otherwise, you'll be ordering a new spring too. Recommend you change out the safety in a well-lit area with no little nooks or crannies for a spring to hide.

You may want to check some of the folks that modify shotguns to defensive guns. They often remove safeties and put a larger safety on.

Vang Comp, Scatter Gun, Wilson Combat . . . all may have the take-offs cheap. As I recall one was selling them for $5.
