Today I purchased an 8 shot extension for my 870. It has an 18" bbl and the extension sticks out past the muzzle about 2". Is it ok to fire or should I find a shorter extension? Please advise, thanks. James

Charlie you're right the 8 shot extension holds 7 and one in the chamber. I did have a 7 shot that held 6. It also matters if you use 2 3/4" or 3" shells. My 870 is an old wingmaster that only accepts 2 3/4" shells. Good enough for me for my upstairs home defense shotgun.
