Not sure if people were looking for these or not but they are in stock at midway... i've been waiting a pretty long time for them to come in stock.. Factory Remington mag extensions BLUED for all you wingmaster guys.! The +2 is still OOS.

looks pretty much exactly what I got with my 870 [Express] Tactical which came with a +2 factory installed extension.

 

 

not sure the finish, the finish I have on my 870 is the worst finish I have ever seen on a gun.  I have contacted them and they said I could send it in for examination to see if "it warranted refinishing under the warranty" but, the thing is, the finish is SO TERRIBLE to begin with, what is the point.  I asked and nearly begged them to parkerize it for me or maybe even the cerakote they put on the 870 Tactical Magpul model but no dice.

 

 

And as much as I'd love to have it done professionally, it's nearly $300 to have the gun Cerakote'd... not even fair imho.

The bluing on my Wingmaster is nearly 40 years old and still looks great, these extension tubes are BLUED, which is a rarity to find.. i believe the only other option is choate and there bluing is known to be terrible. When it comes in a will take some pics and give a review on how good the finish is.. I didn't buy an 870 express for a couple reasons and went with an older wingmaster.. it was cheaper and IMO the fit and finish was better even for a 40+ year old gun.

Thanks for the head's up man! Got one on my way.

Didn't have time to snap a pic. But the extension is very nice. Function will be a thing of time but the quality is great and the bluing is dark and deep like the shotgun. For a 20" barrel the extension pokes out about 1/2 inch. It's feels very solid on and off the gun. It was also nice not having to deal with the dimples on the new 870's very pleased with it.

Ditto. I will be sending out my barrel to be cut exactly even with this extension(and will get some extra goodies done while it's out). Very pleased so far.
