They are, left to right, Joshua Brown, Gary Foster and Geoff Foster. Three people did the evaluation shooting with the M887 Nitro Magnum Tactical, all experienced shooters, but unfamiliar with this specific gun… same as me. Not being a law enforcement professional, or a member of the military where circumstances and assignment vary, my setting is static and fifty feet is more than enough range to cover any eventuality. The targets were placed at fifty feet because my use of a tactical shotgun is defense of home or business. They were selected because we have a flock of turkeys that have taken over the range and I thought this might send them a message and, more to the point, they are 15″x19″ with a 13″ kill zone, which is smaller than most torso targets. Targets selected were Big Tom Turkey targets. This is of course important for a gun that is destined to see rough handling and inclement weather conditions.Įventually, it always comes down to this… The Nitro Magnum was shot quite a bit, but clean up was no more than a quick wipe down due to the ArmorLokt ™ over molding. Disassembly takes about ten minutes, reassembly about the same. Parts are removed in the order as numbered above. In brief form – To disassemble, the gun is checked for empty as defined in the product’s manual. A little tighter detail shot of the front end assembly below. The Remington M887 Nitro Magnum Tactical disassembles slightly different than the Non-Tactical version, primarily because of the accessory Picatinny rail mount that also binds the extended magazine tube to the gun’s barrel.
