Remington 870 :: Magpul Stock Set Install :: Musty Yeti

Well you guys asked for it and here it is. This is a short video showing how to install the Magpul SGA stock set on the Remington 870. All and all it went pretty smooth, there was a few hiccups here and there but that's to be expected. The shotgun feels much better in hand with the Magpul set installed. The grip angle on Magpul stock feels much more natural/ergonomic than the traditional stock. The Magpul MOE forend also feels better in hand, it's larger and with the ridges it's much easier to actuate. Let me know what you guys think. Thanks for watching

I have done this Forarm replacement and have never taken the guide slide assembly off ever. I remove the barrel, insert the tool and bang, you have removed the Forarm in 1.5 minutes, am I missing something?

[@993mike]

Nice video, but you're making the foregrip install tougher than it needs to be. Just unscrew the mag cap, slide out the barrel, push the foregrip forward and start unscrewing the castle nut right there in place, slide off the grip and slide on the new one, tighten the nut, slide on the barrel and screw on the mag cap - done in 3 or 4 minutes.

[@ksa5128]

993mike Best advice

[@adamgellen1458]

Thanks.

[@jeffadams9807]

I Like The: #1) STREAMLIGHT TL-RACKER, Pump/1000 Lumen Light Combo... #2) TACTALOAD FLASH-5 STOCK, U Can Put 5rds Inside The Stock...

[@MacSOGAdventureInternational]

Why oh why doesn't Magpul make these in OD Green. They make it in orange for non-lethal setups but no OD Green?!

[@Wimmig43at339]

Ikr, all of my ARs are in OD Green, it looks super nice.

[@Wraith007B]

Don't take my word as gold, but I was under the understanding that a fore end wrench is suppose to save you the trouble of disassembling the shotgun that far. Any one know if this is the case? (Great vid.)

[@tomstiener1284]

This guy did almost everything behind the camera...

[@Politicallyhomeless957]

Your video really helped me allot. Picked up my 870 today on the 4th🇺🇸😎 and immediately installed MagPul stock and forehand pump. Super easy to do with your vid and this gun vice I bought. Thanks for the info 🙏. Stealth Gray was my choice for color. Forehand was the only tough part as mine was so tight I had to use rubber hammer to get it though. Came out perfect 👍

[@richarddeubler3319]

Too much done off camera didn't get much of it.

[@robertsalyers1351]

Great information thanks Brother

[@kr3wski31]

Way to do the most important steps off camera. Ever heard of zooming out?

[@MustyYeti]

+blake krajewski Thanks for the view count. Take care.

[@SheepDog229]

that comment made me laugh so hard... its almost as if he owed you this video. lol.

[@ezrad5273]

I also just watched your video. You’re welcome for the view count and also for the thumbsdown.

[@BigSmartArmed]

@@MustyYeti Clearly that's what you are told on a date after the dinner you paid for.

[@SirKiwiTheGreat]

Musty Yeti Yeah you’re a fucking piece of shit, learn to actually show all of the steps.

[@neurotoksin]

Dude, when you have done such a good job with setting up the light and camera with the tri-pod then please show us ALL of the difficult assembling...

[@brianwalker1678]

Nice, but I would have kept it all black :~)

[@e.l.robbins5614]

Take off the cheek riser and it looks like you can get to the stock attachment bolt better

[@haljay2125]

Video was overall SORRY. Explanation was confusing and most important part, especially for someone unfamiliar with Reming ton 870, was totally glossed over. Very confusing!!

[@talshiar50]

I like the forend but I can't decide if I like the stock or hate it.

[@shovelhead1046]

Not bad. But as a critique... on future videos, Pls do more (if not all) steps ON camera or it will be of limited use for those that are not familiar with all aspects of installation. Cheers.

[@jonathanherbert1346]

Awfully painful to watch. Your camera skills need improving and did you have to weigh the stocks ???

[@mick6701]

I just received my Magpul SGA Stock Set, cant wait to see your shooting video

[@mikeclark5898]

Thanks for the video,this will make doing it way easier now.Again awesome video!

[@MustyYeti]

Hey man thanks a lot for the kind words. More work goes into these videos than people think. It's great to hear you subscribed. Take care and enjoy.

[@rudestalk1990]

I'm waiting for my rem870. California sucks. 9 more days to go before i get to pick her up. watching all the sweet options for customization on this bad bitch makes it worth the wait... kind of lol

[@MustyYeti]

That's awesome you were able to get an 870, they are great shotguns. I totally understand your thoughts on the FDE. I'm a FIRM believer in the "to each their own" mentality. I just wanted to have an AR, pistol and shotgun match. Thanks for your service, I'm glad you made it home safe. Take care and stay safe.

[@TacMan223]

It's real good to see you back. I just picked up a Benelli Nova Tactical. Check out my video review. Getting ready to shoot an update video of it soon.

[@T-C-G]

What does the other side of the stock look like does it have the sling mount on the right side or is it just the left side that has one? thanks.

[@LucianMoldovan]

Hello, have you sold or willing to sell the old stock+forend? I have a CBC 586-P wich is a clone of Rem 870.... and my stock is cracked.... In Europe is hard to find spares for my shotgun so i am searching for one....

[@bbonesish]

hey i have this exact gun and am looking to do these similar upgrades. get in touch with me if your still trying to buy the leftover stock parts.

[@brycemondragon]

Will the forend fit on a Remington 870 20 Gauge?

[@brianwalker1678]

I have an 870 Express Super Magnum, isn`t the 870 the easiest gun to work on, they are awesome !!

[@WillHolland72]

I agree, once you've done it once.....it's a breeze.

[@kcphaid]

Probably lighter than my wood ones, but then again weight absorbs recoil. so tradeoffs

[@memorablerides6807]

how much does each spacer in the magpul weigh? Was wondering what it'd be if all the spacers were removed.

[@GeTTingWiGGly8]

Does the Magpul edition of the 870 express tactical come with anything other than those 2 pieces, the stock and forend? Could you buy the stock 870 express tactical and put those on yourself to make the Magpul version of it. I noticed that 870 express tactical magpuls sell for like $800, when you can just save money by buying the $500 normal 870 express tactical & the $130 Magpul stock/forend

[@kys4109]

+GeTTingWiGGly Mine came with magnum body, upgraded internals, chrome marine barrels, tube extension for 800 CAD

[@NINJA118]

This stock seems overpriced but when you get it in hand and install it and shoulder it up, you'll realize its worth it! Solid construction (as expected from Magpul). I don't know why people complain about the weight of stock. It is a little heavier than a stock stock but it doesn't seem heavy at all to me. It is perfectly weighted and balance. Switch to a 410 if a 12's too heavy for you!! Well worth the money people!!

[@campr723]

Is it possible to film the video upside down and flip it? That way you can set up your tripod on the other side of the gun and keep it out of the way.

[@dakotapoe4313]

Did you have issues with the forend scratching the barrel??

[@Jaavster]

I would love to know if that color is still available ... i’ve been looking everywhere

[@RBG-tr9ce]

I know this is an old video so I hope you look at this comment. I was wondering how that short barreled shotgun shot?

[@akaTheDevil]

Hey the Remington 870 tactical has rail on top and flash suppressor. This looks like an 870 express with synthetic stock. Am I correct? www.remington.com/products/firearms/tactical/shotguns/model-870-express-tactical.aspx

[@TheRoadhammer379]

Its same version of the tactical I have. Also, as he's handling the gun, you can see the word "tactical" engraved in reciever. This tactical version was sold through many Wal-Mart stores.

[@32icon]

Nice video. Have you noticed any scratches on your barrel or feeding tube by using the Magpul forend? Thanks.

[@brianfield9252]

painful to watch and the furniture is hideous. looks like a big boat paddle

[@TheSpawner855]

so gay cant order it on line in Canada because shipping out of us voids the warranty of it.....

[@danielwells50]

I don’t understand why they send a shit little plastic piece to take off the forend.

[@Wrist-rolls]

Does anyone know of a good heat shield that is compatible with the Magpul frontend?

[@yeulakho6574]

Remington needs to redesign the foreend removal..LOL

[@tylergreen8016]

Hey dude I know this is a few years old... do you still have this specific stock? I’m looking to purchase one but can’t find any. Any leads on where to get one or would you be willing to part with yours?

[@alexscharf367]

@Tyler - They are availble at Optics Planet as of 2/18/21. Just purchased mine.

[@josueguzman602]

How much was it? I broke my old stock the other day cheap as eBay shit lol

[@Gonzomedic]

Will this work on a regular 870?

[@justinbailey1756]

you destroyed the look of the shotgun. now it looks like shit.

[@MacSOGAdventureInternational]

You need a good set of ball tip hex drivers.

[@eddiehartman5355]

I have an 887, will any or all of the 870 gear fit.

[@SoCalDad]

Most of the details stuff you did off camera. 🤦

[@commonsense7787]

It needs to be shorter. Much shorter. All tactical shotgun training has recommended even very tall men run a youth stock or SHORTER.

[@MustyYeti]

Well if you watch videos where people are on the other side the angles and lighting rarely look good. When you are behind the camera you put the audience at the same viewpoint as the person recording. It makes for a better video but it's harder to record.

[@eduardo3447311]

The trigger guard is polymer?

[@JeepsCafe]

Great vid bud! Just got my 870 and will be installing the Magpul stocks. I kinda like the black pump with the fde stock.

[@ishrivera4058]

I wanted to say thanks for posting this video. I was able to save up and get a Rem. 870 Express Tactical and I really love it. But after feeling the more expensive Magpul version I did missed out on how it felt. I decided to take the plunge and got the same set you have but kept it all black (personally sick of the flat desert tan after my Iraq tour) and I really love it! Only thing I would suggest is for users to get a replacement Remington 870 follower. Thanks again for the awesome video!

[@jw3256]

Not a good video for information purposes and learning since 50% of the information was not in camera view. "OK Guys" enough already less talk and more camera work is need to provide effectively creating a learning environment. Just my HHO

[@rootpooty]

If only they make this in OD green.

[@gdbunn]

what model Remington 870 is yours? Want to add Magpul furniture to one also. Any rusting with it? Can't find one with parkerized finish for a good deal. THANKS

[@09MTH]

You would not happen to know the length of the bolt that magpul gives you for the kit. I am trying to see if it at all will be possible fit it to a smith and wesson 3000. However it has a different thread, so I would need to find a similar bolt with this thread 8mm x 1.25

[@thomas070784]

Looks great man. Might have to do this to mine!

[@brandengoss2289]

I use thread locker on the stock bolt

[@Henexa]

Thank you for your help. Good clip.

[@MustyYeti]

Well with those spacers it puts the length of pull at the same distance as the factory buttstock. I can't see anyone using the SGA stock without the spacers, it's incredibly short. I figured that was the best way to measure the weight, with the same length as the standard stock.

[@G-GFactoryMade]

Thanks for the video

[@shahabdeenali8402]

lots of hidden instruction

[@jacobmanalang8162]

i was right there with you doing the install until i couldnt get my mag tube extension off lol...im sad. i think it may be one of those ones thats silver soldered on.

[@johnathondavis5208]

Might be easier to tighten rear, buttstock screw after removing the (removable) cheek weld - to afford you more clearance for the allen wrench. Seemed to help with my install.

[@adamgellen1458]

Dude, I wish I would've seen the comments before following your instructions. Pulling the arm assembly off is a huge waste of time and frustration

[@BigCope216]

A small scale calibrated in grams.... interesting. Typically they'll be in oz or lbs.... you got a side business too? Haha

[@MustyYeti]

You would be shocked to see how many people ask for my old parts. I keep everything, you never know when something might break. I like having spare parts incase something goes wrong. Sorry.

[@MustyYeti]

It's all personal preference. I have a friend that put the Magpul set on his hunting shotgun because the stock is more comfortable and provides a better cheek weld. Sorry I can't answer that one for you.

[@therealsolo23]

How much are these mag pull sets? It gives so much better look.

[@ChristopherStJohn-zp9ze]

$109.00 SGA Stock $29.00 Forend Is what I paid. Amazon has them as a set for $149.00

[@MrSpitfire76]

Great video brother

[@MattyD209]

I wish they had an OD green version on this stock. Gotta get ready to duracoat I suppose.

[@mainiacarchery4661]

Hydro dip it , The kits are pretty cheap all you need is a plastic tout with water.

[@JohnMartin-dx9qm]

Great Job! Thanks!

[@alcodie1558]

I noticed that my 870 tactical has a different mag extension . Did you change yours ?

[@heaththompson9028]

If you want the OD version get the FDE set and some Rite dye and do it yourself very easy other people have done videos on the process

[@Vindowviperer]

I'm hearing reports that the Fore-end is a bit slippery in comparison to the stock one. Also that it kind of hangs off the end OVER the mag tab screw. I have a 4+1 870 Express, will that screw get covered enough to be a pain to get on and off? and how well does the fore-end grip with and without gloves?

[@danstewart2770]

Most people add the Magpul stock to shorten the stock (ie, decrease the length of pull).

[@humvee34]

Nice video just subed

[@UncleBodyguard671]

i stripped the magpul tool and gave up, now looking for stronger tools to remove the castle nut

[@smokeu600]

Wow were have you been? I haven't seen a video from you in month.anyways keep up the awesome job.

[@archer4922]

Will the magpul furniture fit the 870 20 gauge? Haven't been able to find an answer

[@cdirth]

yes

[@Mikey22LR]

Nice video. Thank you! Do you know if that forend grip and buttstock would fit in the 20 Gauge version of the 870?

[@TheShooter466]

Can these components be easily adapted for the Weatherby PA-08?

[@GioGuitarDude]

I use one spacer. With none it feels like my wrist is getting bent to hell.

[@MustyYeti]

I'm pretty sure it's identical on both sides. You would think I would memorize these things but I don't. I know theres a hole on both sides of the stock to install Magpul's QD sling attachment point.

[@MustyYeti]

I think I did pretty much all of the assembly on camera. Some things are dam near impossible to do with a try-pod between your arms. I'll keep what you said in mind next time. Take care.

[@supguyex]

hey that was a pretty good install video. Solid stuff. Keep up the good work

[@gnutt209]

In response to the comment being slippery or hanging off the end. I've had this forend on my Rem 870 for over a year and I can say that it's a lot better than the stock 1

[@qaomowale]

gr8 vid & the Magpul goes well w/the shotgun! 1 question: will that Magpul SGA stock set also fit on an H&R Pardner shotgun? take care, MYTH, & look 4ward 2 the shooting vid!

[@davidenete]

I think you would enjoy owning a gun vise.

[@DawnOfTheDead991]

I have a gun vice

[@Bstoy21]

Wene I bought My 870 yesterday I wanted to get polymer stock but they only had wood would this be good substitute for the 870 express hunting shotgun?

[@103959770979]

You forgot to wight the long big screw come with original 870 stock.

[@Smokeshow767]

With this Magpul forend, can you put a Tacstar Side Saddle on the receiver without it getting in the way? Great Video!

[@OffCamberTJ]

As far as the weight, it appears there are several of the spacers on the SGA. Would have been nice to know the weight w/o those installed.

[@s1lentcalib3r]

What are the holes for on the side with the hole covers i tried a qd swivel it dont fit.

[@541raymond]

Great video, thank you. this is exactly what i was considering.

[@nobearsyet]

I want one of these for ends (I like my Mesa tactical LEO high adaptor and PRS stock with my optic setup though) but does it overlap the receiver atoll? I'm running a side saddle I don't want to give up.

[@TheMeekl]

Anyone know where I can get a set exactly like this? In this color, I mean. All I can find is black and tan :c

[@Tac333]

I broke my polymer tool. Ordered a real one for the rest of my shotguns.
