Hello,
New here from Washington state, western side. Life long gun owner, shooter, hunter, DIY Gunsmith and so on.
I like handguns, rifles and shotguns along with reloading and talking about everything involved with it.
Have one 870 now a 2004 Express Magnum 3" shell with a factory 21" barrel and a 28" barrel also. Right now I'm installing a gold trigger to change the look.
Take care,
BurstBarrel

Welcome from eastern Washington. I'm really into shotshell reloading & casting, and just starting to get into metallic, so I look forward to seeing some activity in our much-neglected reloading section here.
Be aware that unlike most 870 parts, the trigger/connector assembly does require fitting to ensure that it interacts with other elements in the trigger plate assembly properly and safely. This is how they are installed at the factory, or by qualified gunsmiths. If you simply drop in a different trigger without this adjustment, you may run into function problems. These can range from excessive take-up to allowing the gun to fire with the safety engaged.BurstBarrel wrote:Have one 870 now a 2004 Express Magnum 3" shell with a factory 21" barrel and a 28" barrel also.
