If you have an older Remington 870 like I do, adding a red dot may seem like a daunting task. After all, you have to drill and tap that precious Rem 870 receiver...and that can be scary. But it doesn't have to be that way! In this video I show, step by step, how I drilled and tapped my Remington 870...and this was the first time doing it. You probably have different equipment and skills than I do. That's ok. Use what you have, make smart decisions, and take your time! I appreciate you watching and supporting the channel!
