A collaboration project between EMG and SAI, the Salient Arms M870 training shotgun feels and functions just like its real-life counterpart. Based on the APS shot shell system, each shot shell has its own self-contained propellant charge as well as the users’ choice of load. This unique system allows the training weapon to be loaded and cycled like an actual pump action shotgun; complete with tactical reloads, transitioning from one shell type to another, and shot patterning like that of defensive loads. Other improvements made to the training M870 is a precision CNC machined steel receiver with polished-beveled loading gate, and polished feed ramp. The standard furniture has been replaced with the Magpul MOE 870 Forend and the Magpul SGA 870 Shotgun Stock for improved ergonomics. For a more realistic weight, a ventilated-ribbed ported steel barrel is used. The standard bead sight is replaced with a high visibility fiber optic for a crisp, clear sight picture. To make this shotgun durable enough for heavy training use, the bolt is also CNC machined out of steel and Titanium Nitride treated for weather resistance and smoother action. Titanium Nitride treated steel action bars also replace the standard aluminum action bars for improved reliability and durability. The SAI M870 also comes standard with a 2 shot magazine extension to bring its capacity to 6+1.
