R rdan New member Dec 1, 2001 #1 I've got a Remington 870 Marine Magnum and would like to put a 26" or 28" barrel on it. Does anyone carry replacement barrels which won't look odd on this nickle plated gun? Is there a way to coat or blue the nickle so a standard barrel will match? Thanks, rdan

Y youngun New member Dec 2, 2001 #2 If you don't need the nickel plating, I bet you could easily sell the gun and buy what you're looking for with $$ left over for ammo. If you want the nickel, just get whatever barrel you want and have it plated. I personally don't see a blued/parkerized barrel on that thing. It looks so pretty as it is.
