I answered yes as I have a SpeedFeed stock with pistol grip on my 'HD' (it's the back-up to the back-up) Rem 870. Just a pistol grip? No, no use for a shoot from the waist gun or a breacher. Shots from the shoulder, well aimed and well executed, that's the way it's done.

well I finnally got a chance to shoot my 870 with the pistol grip only
I shot 25rds 10 #8 target loads, 5 #5 turkey loads, 5 00 buck, 5 1 1/4oz slugs I had no problems with recoil or hitting COM at 7yrds from the hip maybe it was the angle of the grip instead of the more vertical ones other people have. It was funny the turkey loads had the most recoil were the loudest by far and spit a 1 foot flame out the barrel . It was fun but I think I'll keep my Knoxx stock on I feel like I have more control with it.

No.
If you want a pistol grip, then go buy a pistol, not a shotgun. |

I have had a couple over the years, and contrary to what others have said they are very fun to shoot, and "accuracy" c'mon, its a shot gun we are not talking ten rings here. The recoil is much easier to bear because your arm is not rigid. Your arm is supposed to swing backwards a little to absorb the recoil, as opposed to your sholder being rigid and taking the full force of it. I have never been able to shoot 30-40 shells from the sholder comfortably, but I can shoot my Winchester speed pump all day with the pistol grip.

I wouldn't mind the sort of pistol grip Nemesis has on his. The angle looks much more comfortable and natural than a standard pistol grip. It looks as though it would handle the same as a regular cut-down stock.

Pistol grip shot guns are not supposed to be that accurate, they are generally scatterguns

No I don't have a use for one. But I will defend your right to own one.

I have a 12ga., 18 1/2" Mossberg with a Knoxx Breacher's grip for H.D., that I comfortably shoot one-handed just for fun.
