Description

If you've been running a Remington 870 for any amount of time, you know the factory plastic follower isn't exactly built to last. It flexes, it wears, and it can cause feeding issues that shouldn't happen. The GG&G Enhanced Follower fixes that problem with a solid stainless steel body that handles magazine cycles like it's supposed to.

Stainless Steel Construction That Actually Holds Up

This follower is precision-machined from 304 stainless steel, which means no corrosion, no galling, and no contaminants wearing into the body like they do with plastic. The polished finish slides smoothly through your magazine tube without the friction that kills reliability. It's the kind of upgrade that quietly improves your shotgun's feeding without drawing attention to itself.

Better Spring Control Keeps Shells Feeding

The deep spring pocket machined into the follower body does something simple but important: it keeps your magazine spring exactly where it should be, right against the follower. This controlled spring movement means more consistent feeding, fewer jams, and shells loading the way they should. It's one of those small engineering details that makes the difference between a shotgun that runs and one that doesn't.

High-Visibility Red Insert for Low-Light Situations

The anodized aluminum insert on the face glows bright red so you know at a glance whether your magazine is empty. Better yet, GG&G machined tactile features into it, so in low-light conditions you can feel the difference between the insert and the back of a shell without looking. That's the kind of thoughtful design that matters when you need to keep your eyes on what matters.

Drop-In Installation, Standard Tubes Only

It installs exactly like the factory follower on non-dimpled magazine tubes. Just pull the old one out and drop the new one in. If your 870 has a protruding cut tab inside the magazine tube, you'll need to make a simple modification to clear it first. For newer 870 models with dimples in the magazine tube, you'll want GG&G's slotted version instead.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will the GG&G Enhanced Follower fit my Remington 870?

This follower works with Remington 870, 1100, and 1187 12 gauge models that have standard magazine tubes without dimples. If your shotgun has dimples or a protruding cut tab inside the magazine tube, you'll need either the slotted version or to perform a simple tube modification. The GG&G standard follower does not fit the Remington 870 DM model, which uses a completely different magazine system.

How much easier is the GG&G follower compared to the factory plastic version?

The difference is noticeable. The stainless steel body resists wear and galling that causes the plastic follower to bind or fail, while the deeper spring pocket keeps your magazine spring working consistently. Most users report smoother feeding and fewer jams. Installation typically takes less than five minutes.

Can I use this with a magazine extension?

The standard GG&G Enhanced Follower works fine with aftermarket magazine extensions on guns with standard magazine tubes. However, if you're using an extension on a newer 870 Express Tactical with a dimpled tube, you'll need the slotted follower version instead.

What's the point of the red insert if the body is stainless steel?

The bright red aluminum insert gives you multiple ways to check your magazine status. You can see at a glance it's empty, and in low-light conditions, you can run your finger along the follower to feel the difference between the insert and the back of a shell. It's a small feature that keeps you informed without needing to look at your magazine.
