Description
Carrying a Remington 11-87 all day gets old fast without a sling, and this Uncle Mike's kit is the clean way to fix that. The front swivel is built right into a replacement magazine cap, so you unscrew the factory cap, thread this one on in its place, and you've added a mounting point up front with zero permanent changes to your shotgun. The rear stud installs into the buttstock with the included wood screw, and the two Super Swivels use a Tri-Lock quick-detach design so you can pop your sling on for the walk in and take it off at the blind or on the range.
Fitting the Uncle Mike's 11-87 Cap Set
This set is made specifically for the 12 gauge Remington 11-87 semi-auto, and it also carries over to the 11-96. Owners of early-model 11-87s have pointed out that this cap seats better than some factory-style replacements, threading on smooth without a fight. Just confirm you're running a standard 12 gauge and not chasing a 3.5" magnum setup before you order.
Built From Steel With a Blued Finish
The hardware is steel with a blued finish, so the front swivel base blends in with the lines of the gun instead of standing out. The 1" loops on the Super Swivels accept just about any standard 1" shotgun or rifle sling, which keeps your options wide open when it comes to picking a strap. The Tri-Lock mechanism holds the swivels solid under load and keeps them quiet, no rattle while you're moving through the woods.
Installation is about as beginner-friendly as gun work gets. The front is a simple cap swap with no tools beyond your hands, and the rear stud just needs a pilot hole and the wood screw threaded into the stock. Most folks have it done in a few minutes, and the result is a shotgun that's genuinely easier to haul in the field.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to drill or modify my 11-87 to install this swivel set?
The front does not require any drilling. You simply unscrew the factory magazine cap and replace it with the included cap that already has the swivel base built in. The rear stud does thread into the buttstock with the supplied wood screw, so that end needs a small pilot hole in the stock.
Will this Uncle Mike's set fit shotguns other than the Remington 11-87?
It is designed for the 12 gauge Remington 11-87 and also fits the Remington 11-96. It is not made for the 870, 1100 internal setups, or 3.5" magnum configurations, so match it to a standard 12 gauge 11-87 for the correct fit.
What size sling works with the Super Swivels?
The swivels have a 1" loop, which is the standard size for most shotgun and rifle slings. That means you can pair this set with just about any common 1" sling or carry strap you already own or plan to buy.
Are the swivels quick detach?
Yes. The two Super Swivels use a Tri-Lock quick-detach design, so you can snap your sling on and off in seconds. That makes it easy to run a sling for the hike in and pull it off once you are set up or at the range.
