SBS barrels

[DrBaker]

I'm going to SBS a Remington 870 express. I'll be going with a 12.5 inch barrel. Approximately what should I expect to pay for the barrel w/basic bead sight?

I'm trying to decide if I should buy one or just make my own. I've done one barrel from 28in down to 18in and when I was finished it looked just like it came from the factory (other than no sight). If the barrels are expensive, I'll most likely cut my own.

You got a license for a 12.5 incher?

[Glock 'em down]

Aw hell...that didn't sound good did it?

Just curious do you have the threaded so you can put choke tubes in them?

No license, he is bribing the ATF for a tax stamp. Just like SBRs, MGs, and suppressors.

Nope, just CB like the home defense model.

I like to think I'm giving one lucky agent a hell of a Christmas bonus this year.:selfangel

I know Remington makes a factory 14" 870 barrel, but I don't know about 12.5" barrels. My 870 AOW has a 12.5" with a screw in modified choke, but it was done by Scattergun Technologies (before they were bought out by Wilson Combat). Unless you want a screw in choke, it would probably be cheaper to just cut your current barrel once your Form 1 comes back. I wouldn't expect to pay more than $100 for any 870 short barrel.

I'd just cut it down myself. Hell you might even think about blunderbusing(sp) it just for "shock and awe" factor! :D

A more important question!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Should DrBaker build his own SBS or should he purchase the 14 inch Benelli Super Nova Pump he FONDLED this afternoon at Outdoor America for $330?

I'm still leaning toward building my own 870, but I'll think about it tonight and make a final decision tomorrow.:nolike:

I handled a Nova and was extremely unimpressed. I've felt better triggers on water pistols.
