? for Rem 11-87 Owners
Picked up a used Rem 11-87 in 12 ga for the wife to use. I purchased the shur-shot stock and fore-end and am trying to install this weekend. The issue is the collar that sits in the wood fore end. It does not seem to fit in the fore-end of the shur-shot setup. In fact it seems the shur-shot fore-end has a collar set up molded into it. I can get the new fore-end to slide all the way onto the gun but if I place the collar in it, it gets jammed about an inch from the end. Has anyone installed an after market fore-end on a Rem ran into the issue. Collar pic below.

It's NOT a 3.5 super mag is it?

I got the same shot gun. I bought a rifled barrel for it two years ago. When I change the barrel to the rifle barrel, I can't use that shim and have been using the gun without it. It operates perfectly fine without it.

That's interesting I have read it should not be operated without the collar....after some research on the web I am finding guys who are using a chisel to remove the tabs so that the collar can fit inside the fore end. I guess the tabs are there for the 1100 model.

"DROP IN FIT" Is kinda like one size fits all, NOT always the case. SOME fitting may be required, OR it may not work at all. Due to the age of the gun it MAY be a bit different than newer ones. I'd contact the mfgr's (of the stock) before altering the stock & making it unable to get a refund. My favorite tools are a small sharp pocket knife, a dremel, a set of assorted small/fine gunsmithing files, & emery cloth. As I'm sure you know, go slow & check the fit often, you can't put material back on, once sanded off. Good luck. As always there is likely a u-tube video on how to do anything.
