POTD: An 8″ Remington 870
Published: April 10th, 2015
Victor sent us these photo of him and a friend shooting a 8″ barreled Short Barrel Shotgun. He wrote …
This is an 8″ Remington 870 produced by Safety Harbour Firearms. Shooting 2.75″ slugs. Image was captured by GoPro at 60 fps.
That looks a LOT of fun. Thanks Victor.
I founded TFB in 2007 and over 10 years worked tirelessly, with the help of my team, to build it up into the largest gun blog online. I retired as Editor in Chief in 2017. During my decade at TFB I was fortunate to work with the most amazing talented writers and genuinely good people!

No, just no.
I should have been more descriptive when I sent in the pictures. It is a KEG12 AOW from Safety Harbor Firearms with the 8" barrel. As an AOW it was a $5 transfer tax. The original pistol grip tended to sting a bit and was replaced with a Shockwave Technologies Raptor, a birds head grip. This change made it much more comfortable to shoot. The foregrip is steel and locks into position so no potential failures there. It's actually quite fun to shoot.
