Just don't do what I did and get carried away making it tacticool. It's probably more functional just the way you have yours compared to mine: Looks cool, but that extra crap makes it a little clumbsy and takes away from the idea of the Express, which is to be simple to use and effective. I do like the KNOXX pistol grip stock I have for it a lot, but I am going to remove the add-on rail, cheapo sightmark red-dot, and the higher cheekpiece on the stock and return to the original front post sight. This way it will be much quicker to put into action and probably more effective. Looking at mine I don't think I went too overboard... just added a few unnecessary items. I've seen some crazy stuff on the shotgun forums.

I havent done anything to my Remington 870 Synthetic, I would like to get some better sights put on it though.

The front post is actually really good all the way out to 25 yards, which is the farthest I've tried it. You really aren't going to be shooting your shotgun beyond that distance anyways.

And I agree; simpler is better on this one. This has the ghost sites, and for the range and etc I think they are just fine. PS - Steve Just noticed the new avatar - nice photoshop!!

If need be you can reach out and hit a target with a slug at a pretty decent range with the 18" barrel.

Finally got my AR fixed (gas tube was blocked with loctite LOL) so new gas tube.
Also had the Rail replaced, as I like the Midwest Industries 12" better than the Yankee Hill 10" that I had on there. Also replaced the vertical grip with the Magpul (AFG2) Angled foregrip. Got hold of a couple of HK 30 round mags

I went shooting for the first time in a long time, I finally got to shoot my new Glock 26, and my Glock 27, I must say the Federal Govt has really made me an avid marksman, I was very surprised with my shot group. My lady was impressed as well.
