Picked up one of these......... Remington 870 Express 12g 18" blued, black-synthetic

Looking for a pistol grip option. Not sure what to get? Any suggestions or pics of what you have?
Also looking for a flashlight mount for my Surefire G3.

I have a knoxx spec ops stock on mine. It's a pistol grip with springs insIDE to reduce recoil. Also has a 6 position adjustment on it like an AR stock. I'll try and get a pick up later today

Are the sights even usable?

Live that looks badass......but im gonna have to ask why? I dont see a need for flip up sights (its an 18.5 in barrel, effective range can easily be aquired with just the front bead or that red dot.) And DAYUM thats a lot of rail!!!!!!!!!!! Still looks badass, but IMO seems like a lot of money spent for nothing other than visual gain (not that that is out of the ordinary for gun nuts like all of us lol)

I'm going to disagree with you on the rifle sights (they're fixed sights by the way), but I agree with everything else. I'd rather have a small rail on top of the receiver than all of that.

Getting the Knoxx next week. Now to decide side saddle or no side saddle.

my bad i was viewing it on my phone and the back side of the red dot looked like a flip up rear sight. Now that im on my comp i can see they are fixed.

Get the side saddle. Anytime I have some free room for ammo I take it. A few rounds at rhe ready is always a good thing.

Without going to a full rail system what is a good light mount??

I have a larger surefire G3 and also a small M3 light. Trying to mount one or the other.

Could not find the mount I wanted in order to used my existing flash lights. I did find an all in one mount, light and laser for $30 at Dicks. (Same set up $49.99 at Lotus

)

Well made aluminum mount that can go on or off by unscrewing the tab. Light is pretty bright. 1 click light, 2 clicks laser, 3 clicks light and laser 4 clicks strobe.

Hope to shoot it this weekend to see how it holds up "under fire"

Still have all the old parts (barrel and stock), can have it back to stock in 10 minutes for bird season.
