I’ve been asking this for a long time. I haven’t drunk the proverbial 870 Kool-Aid. But I’m coming to this review with a completely open mind. I’m determined to figure out why the 870 is, after 65 years, still America’s pump shotgun. And after seeing the 870 Police Magnum, I’m starting to get it.

The 870 Perfected? Nighthawk’s Shotguns
Published: August 2, 2015 { 23 comments }What’s wrong with the Remington 870? The list isn’t very long. Yet there are ways that the classic pump shotgun can be improved. And Nighthawk has worked out a laundry list of upgrades that cover every inch of the gun. What goes in looks pretty familiar to just about everyone, but the shotgun that comes out the other end is nothing short of perfect.
Black Aces Tactical Remington 870 Shotgun Rail
Published: June 22, 2012 { 36 comments }You can only buy so many guns (well, not really), so lately we’ve been looking into things that make the guns you already own more effective, and also look much cooler. I ran into this rail system from Black Aces Tactical while researching another article, and I have to say, the Black Aces Tactical shotgun rail is the best in its class that I have found for this application. If you own a tactical shotgun and have always wanted to have the ability to install lights, lasers, red dots, real sights, whatever, at a mere 16 ounces and currently on sale for $179, the Black Aces shotgun rail system is something you should look into. It is available for the Remington 870/1100, Mossberg 500/590, Benelli M1/2/4, and even the Saiga.
