I have had a Mossberg 500 for home defence for awhile now, however with just the pistol grip handle it's a little hard on the wrists when it is fired. What i'm looking for is some ideas on how to "tac" it out to make it a little more user friendly. What I would like to see is some pictures of your tactial shotguns, and what accessories you have added.
This was a birthday presant form my wife, Benelli Nova, 7 round tube and wonderful ghost ring sights.
Eventually I want a similar setup like Aubie's, ETA I bought Aubie's here it is:
...or a Benelli M1 or M2.

Not that I know of, the forearm is quite odd compared to regular shotties. That would be nice though. I don't care for the "clamp ons"
I like the Nova, it is quite sturdy due to it's construction, no...
I posted this as well some time ago, but I don't recall which thread or if I subscribed to it...so here goes again:
Matylda, meet the gang; gang, meet Matylda.
Remington 870 Police trade-in that I bought for $189.00. It came with the rifle-sighted barrel and the standard synthetic stock. I upgraded the forend to a Hogue over-molded unit which I am really impressed with. ...

While I'm sure it's tempting, I wouldn't do a clamp on just yet... Personally, I don't trust anything that is connected to the bottom of my gun ...

Can't find the link so I'll post these again...
Mossberg Persuader with factory Ghost Ring sights. I added a Choate pistol grip stock, inexpensive Tac-Star light and elastic shell holder.
It does what I ask it to do and it didn't cost an arm and a leg.
I do recommend a pistol grip stock as opposed to just a pistol grip. Gives you more options and is easy to control. ...
I always advise people considering a PG shotgun to try it out because it is brutal on your wrists. Plus, it's very difficult to aim without a stock.
I would say if you are looking to upgrade that you consider the Knoxx Spec Ops stock. It reduces recoil to the point where you can shoot slugs all day without being beat up. I have one on my 870 and it works as advertised.
There are a ...
I don't have pics,am currently running an 870 Express with a 20" barrel and a 3 shot mag extension from Choate. It's nice to have 8 shots at your disposal but I discovered I'm not as happy with the length/weight as I thought I'd be. Picked up a Maverick 88 Security 6 shot a week ago and had a BLAST at the range with it.
If you want pics go to AR15.com and click on "arms & tactics", then "...
Yeah, Ninesevens Shotgun is the one that got me to go out and buy myself a shotgun again. Ronnies is the one that makes me want to buy a semi and do it again. A well dressed shottie is just too cool, and so tough looking. Not to mention down right pratical.

I'm finding that most lights are designed for the AR-15s and I'm afraid of destroying them through recoil

thanks....erswnn, nothing fancy, but i will be adding an M4 type carbine very soon, (can't wait for X-MAS and guess what im getting?) will post the update! OH yeah and i will be getting a jug of that liguid nails too!!!!!! LOL
Same here, my "tactical" isn't what is normally considered as such. It's an old police surplus Browning with a 20" barrel, 5+1. Must be 20, 25 years old, I've had it 7 ot 8 years now. But it serves it's tactical purpose, home defense. I also use it for trap shooting. With it I do better than with my 870 with the longer barrel. So nothing special here but it works as good as any out there, IMHO....
