Forends taper slightly for a natural hold; Remington 1100 Forend is checkered and is similar to the factory forend. Includes sling swivel stud.
Almost returned this item. Glad I didn't 29/10/2013
I purchased this as a replacement forend for an 11-87 Police in order to have the clearance needed to mount a sidesaddle shell holder on the receiver(factory forend would not permit this without modification). Initially, I did not think the Choate forend would fit after it became jammed during installation. Once I got it back off the assembly, I discovered the Gas Cylinder Collar (GCC) was stuck hard in the forend and would not fully seat. I had this forend boxed up and ready to return to Brownells when I started reading some Internet discussion regarding the purpose of the GCC and what guns require it and what guns do not. After further research and observation, I concluded that MY particular 11-87P did NOT require the use of the GCC. Omitting that part allowed the Choate forearm to fit perfectly. In addition, while my gun previously had a fair amount of wiggle and play between the forend, the barrel and the receiver (annoying but it didn't seem to affect operation) the Choate forend has eliminated that play and the gun feels much more solid in my hands. Forty rounds of heavy 00 Buck (9 pellets @ 1300fps) and a disassembly confirmed that everything was running better than ever WITH the Choate forend and WITHOUT the GCC. I gave this product 4* because it did not come with any installation instructions regarding the use of the GCC and the fact that it would not fit. DISCLAIMER- I am not a gunsmith and I am not advising ANYBODY to omit factory parts on THEIR 11-87 Police until they are certain of the consequences. A few sidenotes: The Choate forend has a much more aggressive texture than the Remington factory synthetic forend. The Choate forend DOES NOT comes with a sling swivel mount as indicated in the product description. It DOES allow the use of "sidesaddle" attachments to the receiver as it does not overlap onto the receiver as far back as the factory forend. The Choate forend does NOT have the ball detent found on many factory forends.
Nice product 07/03/2012
The Choate forend is a well made product. And at half the price of a Mossberg poly one or other aftermarket forends, the price cant be beat.I have big hands and the forend is very comfortable. I have had other brand forends on my Mossy 500, including the stock wood and other poly forends, including a pistol grip forend. I must say this one is my favorite. Shipping was fast, the Choate forend came with a tool to use to change it. Thank you Brownells and Choate.
