I have an 870P with Ameriglo rifle sights and a Speedfeed youth stock. It's about 1" shorter LOP than the standard Remington stock.
This LOP works well for me, but I've realized that I need a slightly higher comb height to get a truly solid cheek weld. Would the Magpul SGA stock help with this issue? What are your experiences with it?
Yea, I know it is ugly as sin. But if the functionality is that much better, I may suck it up and get it.
The Magpul certainly adds adjustability in LOP and height. The real advantage for me is how much more comfortable it is than a Speedfeed youth in comfort with slugs and heavy loads.Originally Posted by shootist26
Likes pretty much everything in every caliber.
I avoided the Magpul stock for years, and then I tried it.
The LOP is very adjustable, the grip angle works well, and cheek weld is good. I like the ability to have QDs on the butt stock. The pad on the butt stock is a little too sticky IMHO, but that's the only con that I have. ETA: besides how ugly it is.
I recommend.

Hokey religions and ancient lubricants are no match for a good Group IV PAO

I have them on a pair of 870s with ghost rings. The .5" height cheek riser works perfectly for me. I like everything about the stock. Highly recommend them.
Aray sums up my thoughts as well, might disagree slightly on the *sticky* issue & being a Satan hander I do like the QD’s on both sides as well.
FWIW I’ve had them on 2 VCS 870’s since 2013 & now on my Beretta 1301T as well.

I have the same. The sights raise the sight plane to where alignment and cheek weld start to disagree. The Magpul with a low riser fixed it.

I have the Magpul furniture on an 870P with Scattergun Tech sights. I remember when they came out I thought they were the ugliest thing ever. Then I handled a shotgun with them. Wouldn't use anything else now.
I use(d) a T1 on my work shotgun, and the MagPul stock is far and above most everything else I've tried in terms of comfort and practical employment of the gun.
You can get much more of what you want with a kind word and a gun, than with a kind word alone.
This is spot on. I have one on a 590A1 and agree 100%. The pad is sticky but it's a good pad for slugs and buck like mentioned before. The matching forearm is nice too in that you can put pic rail in 3 places. I shoot right handed and have a TLR4 on the right side that makes it easy to operate with my support hand. Overall it's a great system.
I have six shotguns, four have Magpul stocks.
I vote yes.
