You’d be hard pressed to find a law enforcement officer how hasn’t carried or used the venerable Remington 870 shotgun, one of the most versatile weapon systems available. By simply swapping ammo types, one weapon can serve for entry, breaching, riot control and less-lethal duties. Taking the street-proven performance of the Remington 870 12-gauge shotgun and packing it into a compact bullpup form, the new BPU-870 conversion system from Bullpups Unlimited delivers where it counts. This chassis system not only looks cool, but it’ll add to the shotgun’s capabilities in close quarters without hindering its reliability or downrange firepower. Read on to learn more about some of its top features.
