REMINGTON/MOSSBERG FOREND WRENCH Reviews & Ratings

Wrench adapted from Remington factory design, with pilot that keeps “teeth” square to the forend nut, virtually eliminating damage to wrench, forend or forend nut. But, if one of the wrench teeth should ever break, turn the “sleeve” around, there’s another set. Models for Rem. 870 or Mossberg 500.

SPECS: Steel. 12 Gauge – 6ѕ" (17.1cm) long overall. 5" (12.7cm) long handle. 20 Gauge – 7-7/8" (20cm) long overall. 5" (12.7cm) long handle. Replacement Sleeve for 12 gauge only; sold 1 each.

mossberg forend wrench

works great be sure to read instructions forend must be removed from shotgun tool will not fit over magazine tube

870 foremd wrench

wanted to change the forend on my 870 to a magpul I bought another one of these from a different websight, and it wasn't long enough to reach the nut. buy the one from Brownells it works.

Good stuff

Strong and incredibly easy to use. Includes instructions for explanation if needed.

Remington 870 Express

Worked perfectly on a remington 870 express. You have to take the forend and action(and action bars) off to use this. Easy enough just push on the tabs inside the receiver and pull it out. 5/5 stars.

Amazing!

I am really glad I got this 870 wrench. I have several 870s and recently acquired an OLD Wingmaster. The castle nut probably has not been removed in 30+ years. With the assistance of a little Kroil and this tool, it unscrewed with minimal force. It fit perfect on both the Wingmaster and a 870 thats only about 9 years old. The only con I can think of is that it serves only one purpose: removing 870 castle nuts.
