Aimtech Remington 870 12Ga Scope Mount

The Aimtech Remington 870 12Ga scope mount transforms your shotgun into a precision optic platform without permanent modifications. Built specifically for Remington 870 receivers, this scope mount clamps over both sides of the receiver for balanced, rock-solid support—even under the punishing recoil of slugs or heavy buckshot loads. It's a clean solution for hunters and shooters who want to run glass on a pump gun without drilling, tapping, or committing to permanent changes.

Installation is straightforward: remove the existing trigger group pins and replace them with the included bolts. No gunsmithing, no special tools. The engineering is straightforward and proven—a lightweight design that doesn't add unnecessary bulk while resisting the shock that sends lesser mounts walking. Once mounted and indexed correctly, you've got a stable platform for Weaver-style scope rings (your choice of brand and height) and the optic of your choice.

This is the kind of accessory that makes sense for slug hunters chasing deer, competitive 3-gun shooters setting up a tactical configuration, or anyone running an 870 who wants the flexibility of an optical sight without permanent alterations. Whether you're upgrading a hunting gun or building out a defensive shotgun, this mount delivers dependable, repeatable results.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this Remington 870 scope mount come with rings and a scope?

No. The Aimtech mount includes only the receiver clamp and installation bolts. You'll need to supply your own Weaver-style scope rings and optic. This lets you choose the exact ring height and scope that fits your setup.

Will this mount work on other shotgun brands?

This mount is designed specifically for the Remington 870. It won't fit other shotguns without modification. If you own a different model, check with Aimtech or your dealer for a compatible solution.

What's the installation process?

Remove the two pins that hold your trigger group in place, and replace them with the bolts included in the mount package. No tools beyond a punch or pin punch are needed to drift out the original pins. Once installed and tightened, the mount is solid and repeatable.

Can this mount handle slug loads and recoil?

Yes. The Aimtech mount is built to absorb the recoil of slug ammunition and other heavy shotgun loads without shifting or loosening over time, making it suitable for hunting and extended shooting sessions.
