Full-Length Tactical Rails for 870s
February 4th, 2010
Another one of the cool things I checked out at the SHOT Show was the new full-length version of Mesa Tactical’s Saddle Rail with SureShell carrier:
Mesa Tactical Full Length Saddle Rail for Remington 870
Available with or without 4, 6, or 8-shell carrier. It can clamp on either the barrel or onto a standard factory magazine extension.
Even with the 6 shell carrier, it was surprisingly light.
More info here.

Looks mean, but my 870 is tactical enough with a pistol grip stock and butt stock shell carrier. Anything more is kind of over kill, personally.
Now if you hung that m203 from the Glock monster off the bottom, then we’d be getting somewhere.

Hmmm. I took the butt of my Mossberg and put on a pistol grip.
On the pictured 870 it looks like you don’t need a buttstock to use that shell carrier.
Is there a Mossberg flavor?

Correct. You don’t.

It seems that there is another version of it (maybe not the full-length version) but I think it might be Benelli, not Mossberg. I’ll check when I can.

I looked around… there is a Mossberg 500 variant that works same as the Rem 870 above.
Thing is though I’m a lefty, and might prefer the rounds on the right of the receiver rather than the left. Only comes in the pictured config though.
Oh well.
