Hi,
I currently have a Remington 870 wingmaster and a Beretta A391 Extrema 2. They are both setup for hunting with plugs and 28" barrels.
I would like to convert one to an HD gun. I am leaning toward the 870 since 18" barrels do not appear widely available for the Beretta. If they did I would probably use this one instead since it is a nicer gun (no offense to the 870).
For the 870 I guess it would be as simple as acquiring an 18-20" barrel, taking out the plug and putting on a 3 or 4 round magazine extension.
Anyone have a good place to buy these things? I've seen 18" barrels on the cabellas' website, but they seem to be for "express" models. Will an Express barrel fit a wingmaster 870? Also, is there a place where can find good deals? These mods are looking like they will cost close to $200, and that's pretty close to the cost of buying a completely new gun altogether.
Thanks in advance.
