Description
The TacStar Rear Grip turns your Remington 870 into a more controllable, faster-handling shotgun by replacing the factory buttstock with a pistol grip shaped for real-world use. The design uses a specific width, a rearward angle, and a back swell that work together to push recoil energy evenly into both hands, so you keep the muzzle steadier through follow-up shots and hold a more consistent grip every time you shoulder up.
It's molded from high-impact ABS polymer, which is the same tough plastic family used across TacStar's grip line, and it comes finished in black to match most 870 setups. The material shrugs off hard use and holds up to weather without babying, which is what you want out of a working shotgun component rather than a range-day novelty.
Fitting the TacStar 870 Rear Grip to Your Shotgun
Installation is refreshingly simple and requires no alterations to the gun itself. You pull the recoil pad or butt plate off the back of the stock, remove the long stock bolt, slide the old stock off, and mount the grip using the supplied washer and allen-head cap screw. Everything you need ships in the package, and most folks knock it out in a few minutes with basic hand tools. No permanent changes means you can always return the gun to its original configuration later.
What the TacStar Rear Grip Is Built For
This one is designed specifically for the 12 gauge Remington 870, so it seats correctly on that receiver and stock geometry rather than being a one-size-fits-all part. Keep in mind this is the rear grip on its own. If you want the matching front pump handle, TacStar sells that separately, and the two together give you a full tactical grip conversion. On its own, the rear grip is a solid, budget-friendly way to change the feel and control of your 870 without touching a gunsmith.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the TacStar rear grip fit any Remington 870?
It's designed specifically for the 12 gauge Remington 870, so it seats correctly on that platform's stock geometry. It is not intended for 20 gauge or sub-gauge 870 models. If your gun is a standard 12 gauge 870, you're good to go.
Do I need a gunsmith to install this grip?
No. The grip replaces your factory stock using the supplied washer and allen-head cap screw, and it requires no permanent alterations to the shotgun. You remove the recoil pad, back out the long stock bolt, pull the old stock, and bolt the grip on with basic hand tools in a few minutes.
Is the front pump grip included with this rear grip?
No, this listing is for the rear pistol grip only. TacStar sells the matching front forend grip separately, and running both together gives you the complete tactical grip conversion for the 870. Many folks start with the rear grip and add the front handle later.
What is the TacStar rear grip made of?
It's injection-molded from high-impact ABS polymer, a durable material used throughout TacStar's grip line. That construction stands up to hard field use and weather without much fuss, which is what you want on a working shotgun.
