Remington 870 Repair Kit
Remington 870 Repair Kit
There is a Remington 870 Repair Kit which you can buy to have parts most often required for repairs.
But I have made my own list of parts to have for an emergency repair:
TRIGGER PLATE PIN DETENT SPRING
TGR PLATE PIN DETENT SPRING REA
EXTRACTOR PLUNGER
EXTRACTOR SPRING
EXTRACTOR, 12/16/20, NON-MIM
FIRING PIN RETRACTOR SPRING
FIRING PIN
FIRING PIN RETAINING PIN
EJECTOR SPRING
Update:
+SEAR SPRING
But I hope that I will never need those parts and my Rem 870 will work without any problems for years!

Hello Vitaly,
Great post! Just thought I should let you know I read that the sear spring on the 870’s will get mushy after a couple thousand rounds so it too should be on the list and if someone is going to purchase a replacement extractor I would recommend spending the extra $ and get the Rem forged MIM extractor and use the original for a back up. I tore my gun apart last week and noticed the factory extractor was in very poor condition. I read about this and found that the Rem express chamber requires a lengthy break in period to loosen it up which is why shell casings stick in the chamber, which is why my (standard non MIM)extractor is in such bad shape, so I purchased a MIM extractor. My new barrel will arrive soon and I will be boring the chamber prior to firing to prevent these problems in the future. Here is the link for the extractor for anyone interested.

Take care, J.R.
Hey Vitaly,
You were correct, I just need to correct myself, I wrote “forged MIM” which are two different things. forged (non MIM) is what you want and MIM (metal injection molded) is what you don’t want. I actually purchased and listed the forged extractor.
Take care, J.R.
Hey J.R., thank you for your comments! I will update my post and add sear spring to the list.
