Remington 870 Tips & Tricks #2: Receiver Stud Replacement & Repair:
This Remington 870 Express Synthetic had its stock bolt forcibly screwed all the way in while cross-threaded, which damaged the threads on the stock bolt, as well as the threads receiving it. In this video, I’ll demonstrate how to replace the receiver stud, and also show how to repair the stud’s internal threads if they are not too extensively damaged.
This continues my series of how-to videos with the Remington 870 shotgun. There are a number of other topics I have planned for future videos, but it’s a fluid list. I’d love to hear any suggestions you might have for video topics. If it’s something that has already been covered, I may point you elsewhere, but if it’s an interesting and feasible idea, I’ll add it to the list.
I’d also appreciate any comments on the format of this series; things you liked, things you didn't like, things you’d like to see done differently, etc. I’m still playing around with styles and programs, figuring out what works well and what doesn't, so any input would help me out.
When making this video, I came to the conclusion that Windows MovieMaker flat-out sucks. Does anyone know of a good open-source (i.e. free) video editing package? I don't need anything real fancy, but something that can do better than 480p quality and won't crash every 10 minutes would be a nice change of pace...
