870 mag extension
I purchased an 8 shot extension for my 870 and it has an 18" bbl. The extension sticks out past the muzzle about 2". Is this ok to shoot or should I get a smaller extension, longer bbl?
Thanks for your time,
James

If it is a steel extension you should be fine. If it is polymer I'm not so sure. 0 -
Thank you, yes it is steel.

it's safe to shoot and i'd like to know where you bought it/ how much $$? I've been looking for one myself...
thanks. i'll start looking0 -
I found it at a local gunshop here in Austin, Tx $47.99. Reds Indoor Range North, it was actually behind the Benelli extensions and they didn't even know they had it. I've seen them on GB auction for less but it was sort of an impulse buy. 0 -
Your just fine to shoot it. I have seen guys at 3-gun matches I shoot who have mag extensions that extend almost a foot beyond the muzzle and they work fine.
They get dirty with powder grunge but do not interfere with the shot pattern when it leaves the barrel.0 -
Really appreciate the in-put. I didn't want to have something bad happen. Better to ask before firing. Thanks again, James. 0
