Tactical HD shotgun ideas and a question

Once again I am reminded that I know squat about long guns.

As you might know I have a NEF pardner pump 12 ga on the way and my intentions are to make it a tactical HD shotgun (not that it wont be effective in the stock configuration)

I found myself looking for a breacher choke and realised that I have no idea what kind of choke tubes the NEF takes. I have read that you can use remington acessories on it but I am not sure if this applies to the choke tubes as well. Anyone know about this?

Moving on to the Ideas for making my SG tacti-cool.
I plan to add:
reciever mounted shell holder
extended mag tube (+2) as long as it stays shorter than the barrel
breacher improved cylinder choke (once I find out which type to get)
heat shield
barrel (magazine) mounted light
trijicon ghost ring sights

I really dont want to change the stocks on it because I dont like pistol grips and I dont like the looks of the adjustable stocks (they have pistol grips too)

This is going to be a slow "one at a time" process but I will most definantly post pics during progress

Thoughts? Suggestions? I need input because I have no clue what I'm doing :)

Either Tacstar or Mesa Tactical. They have them in 4 and 6 shell capacity.

You are going to have to change the magazine spring to accommodate the longer length and possibly a clamp to keep the extension more stable.

Breacher chokes are a gimmick to the "tacticool" crowd and mall ninjas.
There are specialty rounds used for breaching so that people on the other side aren't hit.
Figure out whale what shotgun load you plan to use for self-defense and go from there.
But if your heart is set on the breacher's tactical look, buy it.

They are useful if you are putting huge amounts of round through your shotgun at one time. For HD, they are just paper weights IMO.

Good to know what your target is. A barrel clamp for lights or a light integrated into the fore-grip are good options.

After you buy the sights you want, have a gunsmith apply this modification.
I've seen people use super-glue to attach the sights and have them easily knocked off.
