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.

Remington 870 20 gauge follower
Needed to replace the mag tube follower on my 20 gauge Remington 870. This part was exactly what I needed and was easy to install.

Aluminum follower in burnt orange
Smoother operation than OEM orange plastic follower. The factory follower is much longer with it's "tail". Easy install

Works as Advertised
The factory magazine follower on an 870 Express is plastic, and I have seen two of mine fail causing jams. This aluminum upgrade solved all of my problems and takes less than a minute to install. And it looks good to boot!

Awesome Product
The stock follower in my 1187 was rough around the edges causing increased force required to load the magazine. I tried 2 other magazine followers before trying this one and they were a waste of time and money. This follower does not decrease magazine capacity like the others I tried because it is built to the exact same dimensions as the stock follower. The follower has a nice weight to it and slide down the magazine tube under its own weight. The stainless matches my builds digital finish beautifully however I wouldn't be opposed to colored stainless for more visibility. All in all, awesome product. Doesn't jam, operates smoothly, well priced, slotted for the perfect weight.

great quality.
I bought this for my son's 20 gauge. It's a lot better than the cheap plastic original piece and looks cool. Should last a long time.

Great Fit
I installed this on my 870 20ga express magnum. It fit great, much better than the stock plastic follower. I cycled some shells through, without firing, and it seemed much smoother.

Great fit
This s/s follower fit my 870 20ga Express LW model absolutely perfect. Much better than the stock plastic follower which was starting to wear and seemed to have a bit too much play in the magazine tube. I gave the gun a deep cleaning then cycled some shells though the gun, w/o firing, and worked perfect.
