How closely can I expect the finish on my 870 Express to match the finish on a Scattergun Technologies mag extension?

Ok guys I just ordered a Choate +2 extension kit for my 870.
One question I have is does the barrel support secure the mag extension tube from unscrewing. I removed the dimples from my express's mag tube in anticipation of installing an extension.
I noticed during my recent range session that the mag cap loosened up under recoil. I also noticed that my new 18" barrel's lug is drilled for the detent spring and ball. But they are not installed. I can't imagine how this would be too difficult to complete. Brownells lists the parts and the punch needed.
Funny how my 28" Express barrel is not drilled for this feature.
