[QUOTE="engineer40, post: 1102595, member: 90399"] Thanks. Without your response I wouldn't have known some gunsmiths use a permanent method of pinning. I did call a gunsmith today. He said he's pinned quite a few 870 barrels. He always uses removable hex screws unless the customer says they want it permanently pinned. But he also said, he only does 1 screw. Which I wouldn't be a fan of. Seems like that would torque the barrel crooked against the receiver. Right now I'm leaning towards bedding the barrel and possibly using a bit of low strength purple Loctite on the barrel threads and the forearm cap nut. I'll update results if I do that... [/QUOTE]
