ED-SKaR, Since the gun shoots about 365 with a .25g BB, my range isn't much greater than that of an AEG. That said, because the gun is so consistent (accurate), my effective range is a bit greater. I've made some pretty long shots with it. The wood kit is from a real 870, everything else is stock fom G&P. I threaded a wood plug for the sling swivel, and pinned that plug into the existing magazine tube. I do like the plain sights better too, but the red dot gives a great point of reference. It's downright deadly.

G&P 870, with a little love...

The screw is about 6 or 7 inches long. I suppose if construction supplies are you're thing, this would do the trick.

No problem: The stock uses a long screw, similar to the real Remington 870, that attaches to a tail that sticks out the back of the gearbox. My gun has an aluminum collar from the factory that holds the left and right sides of the tail together for a solid fit. The pictures make the attachment look weak, but it's actually pretty sturdy considering the fact that the tail sees a tension load (pulling away from the body of the gun). Does that help?

G&P Remington 870. I'm excited about it, so I thought I'd share.

I found some surplus A1 grips, and they work (of course).

Cam Keo SOC16, I had it machined. I'm tall, but the M16 was just a bit too long for my liking. Clinton-era Dissapator?

I made this out of a $30 Wal-Mart BSA and an extra carry handle.

My neighbor is an auto mechanic and has friends, but I used the phone book too, at first. The key is to find some old guy who either does it as a hobby or is retired. Full machine shops tend to charge a lot for a minimum on such small projects. Also, my G&P has RH threads. For LH threads you might be charged a bit more. I don't know since I'm not a machinist.

Wow... thanks for the compliments! The machining cost me $30, which is on the cheap side for machining work, but not impossible to find for anyone interested in the same mod.

I had the barrel machined to be about 16 inches. The inner barrel extends into the flash hider, so I didn't cut off much inner barrel length. I was surprised how much of a difference a few inches makes for the overall feel of the weapon. G&P M16A3
