Default FYI: Knoxx SpecOps for Rem 870
My unit was sent a Remington 870, 14 inch barrell entry gun equiped with the SpecOps on Friday. On Sunday I took it to the range and with low brass loads found that the stock slid forward covering the trigger and safety making any follow-up shots impossible.

On Monday I removed, realligned, and remounted the stock, then immediately went to the range. The gun fired fine with low brass and reduced recoil 00 buck. With reduced recoil slug the stock jammed in the same manner. A call to tech support confirmed that this problem does exist with ONE batch of SpecOps for the Remington model. Knoxx Industries will replace any defective stocks free of charge.

MORAL of the story....Test your weapons before you need them.
