870 Stock

[SSgt82-02]

My son and I started running 3-gun with what we had, could afford, my shotgun is the last old item I'm using. It's an 870 I originally built for HD use, 18.5" barrel 6 round mag and 12" pull stock. I want to upgrade the stock as the last band-aide before I upgrade to a semi-auto, unfortunatly that'll be after Ft. Benning. (I can't afford to go and buy a new shotgun) Should I just upgrade to the 14" Hogue stock or go for a pistol grip style stock for a little more control? I'm running on a tight budget here so be kind. If anyone has an old stock I'll gladly take it off your hands.

I put a Knox, telescoping stock on my 870... and quite honestly, think I made a mistake. A pistol grip on an AR is one thing, but I don't really care for it on a shotty. JMO

I love the Knoxx stock but it puts you in open at some matches.

I recommend the Hogue. I've tried the pistol grip and prefer a traditional stock. I find I'm faster back on target splits.
