I've been thinking about getting one and wondering what upgrade's those of you that have them have done .
Its an 870 self defense gun, IMO. Find the rounds you can shoot well, pattern them at the distances you would be most likely to use it, and put a light on it. I added a Magpul VFG to mine, but I know that isn't for everyone.
They are chambered in 12 and 20 gauges.
I have one, if I had to do it over again I would get the Shockwave instead.
Upgraded extractor, follower, spring, mag extension, SB brace. It's honestly not much shorter than an 870 with a magpul stock in the shortest config. Don't like the feeling at all shooting it with the bird's head grip and definitely don't trust other people to shoot it at the range with regular loads without a brace. Sounded like fun at the time but it honestly gets very little use. E-filed Form 1's are coming back in 21ish days so there's always the SBS option too I guess. That probably makes the most sense right now if that's an option for you.
I do a lot of traveling out of state. If you have a home there, every year you can file a 5320.20 for your address that covers the entire year.Form 1 isn't a thing for me because I don't want to have file the form to cross State lines because I have a home in Tennessee that I travel to on short notice

It's a fillable PDF, you print, sign, scan, email, and get an approved copy back in two weeks.
