I bought an older 870 youth express magnum model in excellant shape with wood stock. I polished the barrel, SSX choke, Truglo  Pro-zseries Magnum Gobble Dot sights, Phoenix Tech stock and forearm, Claw sling, and a coat of brown camo paint and sealer. Going to shoot #7 Federal Heavyweights I think. Love it so far, posted pics in 20 ga pattern section. Shooting pretty good. Only thing i might add is a graphics kit from Mossy Oak. Now only a year to wait to kill one with it. Read a lot of good info on here thanks.

A bit off topic, but I am left handed.  Can you reach the safety with your thumb if you hold it lefty?  Looks good btw, am thinking of adding the pistol grip to my gun and was wondering.  Thanks

I don't think it will matter right or lefty, the way it is made, can't really reach it with thumb on either hand....

Nice. I liked the brown too, but the boots set it off with the new graphics.
