The switches are right where you would want them. God forbid I ever had to use it. In a life and death encounter the best outcome is me having to spend $50,000 on a defense attorney. So I won't try to save 10 cents on a cheap light that might not work when my life depends on it. |
Re: Need A Light For My Remington 870 Pump
You can spend as much as you did on the gun itself and get a Surefire, or, you can pay $80 or less for the WLS-2000 from TacStar.
Unless you're a cop or Marine invading a home, the WLS-2000 will do everything you need, dependably. The T6 light (the centerpiece of the WLS-2000) from TacStar is almost as good as the Surefire series flashlights, some would say the equivalent. The mount of the WLS-2000 is not as good, of course, but it will do for a home owner or in a similar civilian application. |

Surefire....

As others have said, SUREFIRE. Works nicely on my 870.

Turn on your flashlight and hold it in the crook of your neck like a phone.....
KIDDING! Surefires are nice because they're a supported system-based item. ...or a headlamp! Oh, I tickle me! absurd humor is the best....too bad the newer breed of movie producers don't pull it off well. |

erocktxmade below is a picture of my 870's original wood forend and the Surefire. I disconnected the "Forend Tube Assembly" from the 870's original wood forend and connected it to Surefire.
Here is a side view picture of the "Forend Tube Assembly" http://www.midwayusa.com/eproductpag...eitemid=995851 This is a simple operation and I have switched back and forth numerous times for shooting trap. The trickier part is reinstalling the "Forend Tube Assembly" with the firing pin mechanism back into the gun. But I had practice the first time I shot it at the range when I was switching barrels. It came apart. It doesn't take a gunsmith or a genius, just patience. The only tool you need comes with the Surefire forend. I used a large socket to "coax" the "Forend Tube Assembly" from the original wood forend the first time. http://goldismoney.info/forums/pictu...&pictureid=596 |
