Hogue is a company which sells parts and accessories for firearms. Some of their most popular upgrades are made for the Remington 870 and Mossberg 500 shotguns. Some of the stocks that Hogue sells for the Remington 870 have a twelve-inch length of pull (Short Shot model). This turns the shotgun into a compact weapon and gives the shooter more mobility when they’re in constricted environments. Hogue also has standard sized stocks that are a bit longer so it really depends on your body size and the areas you’ll be using the shotgun in. For example, if you are a shooter with long hands then you may not like having a twelve-inch length of pull. But if you have shorter hands then it will be more comfortable for you.

Remington 870 Forend Removal / Installation with pliers or wrench
The first thing you want to do when trying to replace the forend of your Remington 870 is to make sure the weapon is unloaded. You’ll want to check both the chamber and magazine tube by visually looking at them and by feeling around with your fingers. That way you can ensure that you don’t have any accidents during the process of replacing your forend. Next, you will need to gather the right tool for doing this job. There is a special forend removal tool that you can purchase at most gun stores, but if you have a pair of pliers then they will be fine.

Blackhawk SpecOps II Stock and Forend for Remington 870
2nd generation of the Blackhawk SpecOps Stock is even better than previous version. The main problem of the 1st generation SpecOps stock was cheekslap which some of the shooters experienced. Now this problem is almost eliminated. The stock may hit you only when you shoulder it wrong.
Blackhawk SpecOps II Stock and Forend have a lot of advantages. It reduces felt recoil and I think that it is the best choice for new shooters. This stock is adjustable and will fit shooters with longer or shorter hands.
The forend is long which makes it easy to reload a shotgun and it has grooves which ensure positive grip.
