What is the difference with 'internal' and 'external' rachet? And can this be attached to my 870 express tactical?

I'm not sure about internal and external ratchets. But this will attach to you 870 tactical. Just be sure to check that magazine cap because it will work loose with a sling on it.

I don't think this will work with the Tactical, because of the magazine extension. The ratchet term refers to the spring-loaded ball-detent system that locks the cap on.

I have one on my 870 Express that is set up with a 18.5" barrel, and on a Maverick HS-12. Both are short tactical-type shotguns and the sling fits nicely. I have my slings oriented with the padded section towards the stock so the shotguns are not too front heavy when fully loaded with shells.

I wouldn't mount this type of rail to my 870. If you don't want drill holes in it the only other way would be to glue it. I wouldn't think that it would hold with any sort of longgevity. The way I would go is to get one of the many types of rail slash scope saddles. The type of saddle you get will depend on what you entend to mount to it. There are so many types of saddles depending on budget, capibiliy and function. If you just want a simple rail there is a version I think that's pretty cool looking. It's made by Leapers and it has a rail on the top. There are four different of these saddles on amazon that look exactly the some but they very in price so it you go this route be carefull to get the cheapest one. The last time I saw it, it was 17.99. I'm sure you've seen some of the others that provide multiple funtions and attachments in one integrated mount. I hope this helps some and if you have any more questions just shoot then and I'll be glad to help if I can.

Yes, replaces stock pins that come with your 870. Took maybe 15 minutes to install. Does require disassembly.

I don't have that fore end on my Remington 870 but the Tacstar Sidesaddle doesn't take up that much space. It is quite efficient and is only on one side. Your fore end may just be longer on the bottom and wouldn't interfere with the Tacstar. I would recommend getting a bandolier instead of the Tacstar unless you're using it for hunting purposes.

I put this on my 870 pump and it all fits(have to drill hole for the rear connect). I thought I was 100%, but went to shoot some clays and the front screw cap shown in the picture kepts coming loose every 20 shots or so. I would tighten it back up by hand, did not use a wrench, but it would slowly start coming loose. One time I shot my 870 pump and the entire firearm came apart. Everyont still gives me a hard time about it, but I do not think that would have happened with the original Remington cap. Still trying to decide if I should try to stick with it, or revert back to original Remington cap. I put this on my 870 pump and it all fits(have to drill hole for the rear connect).

It should work as long as the fore end does not cover the front of the receiver when it is in it's full rearward (bolt open) position. I have the stock Remington tactical fore end on my 870 and the shell holder works great. It won't work with fore ends that cover the front of the receiver when slid to the full rearward position. I hope this helps.

Nope it doesn't ordered one for my 870 express 20 gauge and it isn't even close. I had to send it back. Best to look directly on TruGlo site.

You can always opt for a 4 rd sidesaddle; Mesa 4 rd for example. I say this because these will work on left or right handed 870's and will fit on the right side no matter what 870 model you are using, e.g i know someone who has a mesa 6rd sidesaddle on the left side and a mesa 4rd sidesaddle on the right side (overkill i know) and it works fine.

Not a Remington 870 20 gauge with wood forend. The diameter of the tool is too wide, it won't feet between the forend and the magazine tube.

That's a loaded question... Yep, pun intended.If it is the remington 870 (Blackhawk?) tactical with a mag tube CAP, yes.If is an 870 tactical with a standard mag TUBE extension, you would need a "T" (under our other listings)More questions? Please ask...

Yes I believe so. The difference between the 870 and 870 express is the finish. Most parts should be interchangeable. Overall I am please with this product.

You have to tap out the existing pins with an awl. The rail comes with bolts that functions the same as the pins, but with an allen key. (provided)This is the only 870 rail I would use. It's rock-solid and balls-accurate.

I have an 870 tactical, I don't know if it will fit the 887. Your best bet is to contact the manufacturer.

I don't know. It fits on my 870 tactical. It was about the only one that I could find that fit my shot gun that looked reliable.

I have a tactical Remington 870... With a picattny rail, it will mount to any standard rail

It's a standard thread pattern common to all dies. I actually use a Hornady loc-n-load quick change adapter in my RCBS RCII so it should work fine for you too.
