Howdy board members. I have been checking out some of your builds and they are gorgeous. Looking forward to tweaking this bird up a bit.

Bolt Handle - which do you prefer?

• Briley - FN SLP 12 Gauge Bolt Operating Handle - Black
• Nordic - Nordic Components Speed Bolt Handle Winchester SX2 SX3 FN SLP Browning

Light mount - looks like everyone is using the Tri-rail? Are there other options? I understand the size on the mag tube is a bit larger than the 1" standard

Heat shield...? Don't really have a idea here?

What else are you folks doing to your SLPs?

Any specific lubricant recommendations for this gun? Are folks running dry films?

Thanks.

Nordic for me. As for lube, clp or eezox and slide glide for the bolt rails.

Nordic - really like it. Nice size and nearly impossible to lose your grip on it even with gloves.
CLP & traditional gun oil.
Tri-Rail – Surefire light with remote velcro pressure pad.
Cheap extra ammo sleeve over the stock.
Sits bedside every night.

Post up photos as you go!

There's a thread on here where someone modified a heat shield for an 870. I don't use one - I don't run it very hot, and I wear gloves. Plus, I figure if a bad guy tries to take it from me, maybe it'll burn him

Welcome to the forum. I really like my SLP and have it close to my night stand when I am sleeping.
