It's nice, but like my Baltimore Police Dept marked Remington 870 better. Beat to hell, but I paid less than $100 for it in the late '80s

 

Very nice!

 

nice, but not @ $4k.....................or half

 

Nice piece of history

 

That's laughable. Looks nice though.

 

Anybody know who makes the barrel/mag clamp with bayonet lug? Looks like it might be a original Remington part. If that's been on there since 1969, I doubt if its still in production. Looks useful though.

Closest thing I could find that's still made.

 

I used one of these to mount a bayonet to my Mossberg, I know thery are Chinese but the quality is pretty good and you can get them off Ebay cheap.

I've seen the barrel clamp alone sell for $500. 2K for the grouping may find a buyer.
A good metal worker could fashion one pretty easy. Still the cost would be more than the after market solutions out there. Depends on what someone wants.

 

our department had a whole bunch of old wood 870's...they disappear under the guise that they're obsolete, but don't give anyone a shot at purchasing...ugh

 

Locally I bought a wood 870 Police Magnum from CA state corrections surplussed a couple months ago. This month they had the same but Marine (Nickel plated) ones....I don't need another.

 

how did you buy it?

 

Sweet Sixteen Auto-5 works for me

 

We had a few of those - or markedly similar guns - in the USAF Security Forces armory when I was working in Qatar. I can't ever recall issuing them; not sure we even had ammo for them. Ours were well worn.

 

That 'accessory is out there to be found, if you're diligent, or run in the right circles. The going rate for a used one is ~$500 and the cheapest I've seen them is $375.00.

The Corp was still using them in the ME and it's still got those cool and collectible factors going for it, as well.

Not on my 'Needs' list, but should I ever find one at a garage sale for a few measly bucks, I won't leave it there for the next guy.
