  • Does this shotgun have a milled receiver or a stamped receiver? I've never looked into an 870 platform before, but I own two Mossbergs (an 88 and a 500)
    As a secondary question as to not flood the comments, are accessories mostly interchangeable with the Mossberg shotguns or is there special fitting required?
    Thanks in advance, people.

  • Milled receiver. Composite trigger group. The accessories for the 870 are specific to that model but there are tons of aftermarket items for it which is nice. It's a much nicer platform than the Mossberg pump.

  • It is "Milled" Zachary. They've always been milled. They changed some of the internals to less expensive stamped parts, but the receivers have always been milled steel. They did downsize the 20 ga receiver to a proprietary size dimensioned just for the 20 ga shell to cut weight. It was formerly built on the 12 ga receiver and obviously a bit heavier because the smaller bore required to utilize .20 ga.
