How will this light w/coiled remote switch on a Remington pump 870 tactical shotgun?

I wouldn't get it. On a shotgun, it will break the whole top bezel off. I would recommend going with surefire flashlights for your shotgun. Recoil will break it for sure. And for a shotgun, I would recommend a more of floodlight with a little throw. streamlight tac. Is for throw. Long range. Hope that helps.

It will work as long as you can find a mount that will fit both your 870 and the light. Problem is the light housing is narrow and not a standard size like other weapon lights. Behind the lenses bell the light body diameter is .900 so it's tough to find a mount to fit that. Another issue is your mount needs to stand off far enough from your weapon so the lenses of the light doesn't hit it. Another issue since most lights don't have a big lense like this one. I love the light and have one on my AR with a remote coil using a 1" Viking mount and a few layers of shrink wrap around the body so it will fit snug since the mount is for a 1" light. I'm sure there are better mounts out today then when I got mine. As long as it will clamp down below .900. But for my 870 I personally would not like it as it's overkill. For all my shotguns I use streamlight M3's with their corresponding shotgun mounts which are nice as I can slip them on and off the picatiny rail. Works very well and lower profile sitting closer to the weapon. But it's a personal choice. Hope that helps!

apologies, I do not know what that is. I mounted mine on 870, and it works perfectly

I would venture a guess that it fits "TL" lights only. The information I found on your particular light indicates that there is not a remote switch available for it.

Can't directly answer your question, however I want to chip in. Put this light on my shotgun and it worked great until the recoil broke the metal bits that hold the rail. It was after approximately 50 shells of low-recoil 00 buck. I will never buy from this company again. Shotguns may not be it's intended use but these things should be very tough given their potentially life saving purpose.

It does come with a remote pressure switch. Take off the end cap (like you were replacing batteries) and replace the cap with a new one (included) that is connected to the pressure switch. It also came with a mount for attaching the light to your rifle barrel.

No. I liked the light but the stickum wasn't strong enough to hold it where I had placed it. The remote switch worked just fine, like a regular light. Hope this helps.

Yes, I mount mine often to use switch between run and gun and mounted. Works great.

I'm not sure I had mine installed at a shop so they did all the programming. I would however like to program it so my lights would flash during arming and disarming.

The TLR-1 works well on most carbines, AR variants, AKs, and such. Although its larger in diameter than most dedicated rifle lights it can preform as light for a rifle, pistol, or shotgun. I would consider if your looking for a "do all" light that's in the $100 range.

I don't believe there is one. The battery compartment is accessed through the lens so you can't replace that with a switch... Amazon sells a Steamlight TLR Remote Door Switch Assembly, they are used on the TLR 1 & TLR 2

I do not believe this light is compatible with any weapons platform. You would need a mount compatible with both the light and the weapons platform. You would also need a switch compatible with both. I know of no interface that would do this. Surefire and Streamlight are good companies to check out for rifle lights. Weight and lumens are very important. You don't want a heavy light on the end of your long gun.I have a Surefire X300 Ultra on my handgun. It is a great light. It is compatible with some AR15s, depending on your rail system.

I do not have this on a shotgun. It seems study enough though. It is a good light and it is bright as hell. It is about a 1 inch body.

you can check on the streamlight website. just go to product selector, weapon lights, tlr 2hl, doc/info & compatibility chart

Unfortunately, this has no inline switch per se- rather a 'pull cord' type on / off switch. Ensure your light is anchored properly- otherwise you are liable to pull it out of the ceiling. hope this helps..

Mine is mounted at 3 o'clock so I can activate my light with my left thumb while in the shooting position. The switch for my light is on its rear end (Streamlight TLR-1s) so it works out perfect for me. Your results may vary. The nice thing is that you can put it just about anywhere it feels good to you. Good luck.

There is not a corded pressure switch. The light is switched on and off with a tab near the rear of the light that slides left and right. I have a full size pistol and can turn the light on with my right index finger.

I bought this same one, I currently use it on my Streamlight Super Tac. I have it mounted on my AR-15 as a weapon light. I know that it will fit that light. Go to Streamlight's website and pick the flashlight you want, when you do that you can scroll down and they inform you of what accessories are compatible with that unit. Once you have determined the remote switch you want get their product stock number and search for it on amazon using the stock number. That is how I did it to ensure I was buying the correct components. Hope this helps. Worst case, call Stream Light on the phone via 800 number, there receptionist should be able to tell you what will fit. Thats a guaranteed correct answer.
