🧠 Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What size extension should I choose?
A: It depends on your barrel length and use case. A +2 or +3 is great for home defense; +5 to +9 are ideal for competition or tactical.
Q: Are these extensions compatible with all 870 models?
A: Yes, as long as you're using a 12-gauge Remington 870 with a standard magazine tube. Tactical and Police models are fully supported.
Q: What’s included in a magazine extension kit?
A: Most kits include the extension tube, extended spring, and follower. Some also include a barrel clamp for stabilization.
Q: Do I need to modify my shotgun?
A: Most Remington 870s made after 1990 have dimples in the magazine tube that must be removed before installation. This is an easy DIY process.
