Perfect replacement for the plastic followers
The perfect replacement for the plastic followers that are OEM with the Remingtons which eventually crack and disform over time.

After Market wonder
The aluminum magazine follower provided from Brownells is light years ahead of the plastic one provided by Remington.

Much better than factory
Once I removed the factory follower, I was shocked anybody would trust that piece of garbage, this is much better, and easy to install.

Upgrade to green = safe
Replace stock light gray plastic with quality green aluminum. Anything that aids a visible safety check is worth doing. Super easy to install.

Nice to have a choice......
I replaced this part on my new shot gun not because the OEM didn't work, but because I liked the idea of an aluminum part rather than plastic; Also that red seemed more appropriate than orange......a painless, fun kind of change!
