I haven't seen anything like that for the Comp. As you probably already know, the factory pic rail on the Tactical puts a red dot too high to co-witness with the sights. An Aridus CROM solves that, but won't fit the Comp.

I'll buy a Comp if I can ever find one for a decent price.
View Quote


Yep. Not much point to having back up sights if the front dot is completely blocked by the optic. I did see that XS has Big Dots that mount over a bead and a ghost ring that mounts to the rear end of a rail. That may be an option, depending on how high the red dot sits.

Local place has one in stock for a very reasonable price. I may have to just grab it and figure the rest out.

They are both really nice shotguns. I’ve been coveting the 21” Comp for a while nice. Would make a great all around shotgun in a hybrid field/defensive role.
View Quote

Yep.  I’ve told myself that if I ever see a 21” comp in olive green on the shelf, I’m getting it.  I’ve seen some 18”, but not the 21” so far.

I don’t need it bad enough to order it, but if it appears before me, it means the universe needs me to own it.

Seems like the 1301 in general is out of production right now. Haven’t seen any of the tactical models in stock anywhere.


Also have a 92x that’s been sitting in there warranty repair department since November. Think they are having problems across the board.

I’ve seen a couple back in stock notifications for the tactical. KYGun was one, but don’t recall the others. All were in the last month, or so, but I’ve decided on the comp and trying to be patient.

Much longer and I may begin to regret not jumping on the Tactical when it was available.

Ok, I don’t have a 1301 yet, but the link pulled me in to all of gg&g’s 1301 accessories. What’s the benefit of the angled side saddle?  It seems that the rounds pointed down would be awkward for a reload, while the rounds pointed up would be smoother and more efficient. Just for the photo up?

I do have an 870 with perpendicular Mesa side saddle and seems to work as intended. Never really had an issue but think the angle may work well, if it’s loaded with the same ammo.

Well, that was a waste of money and will be going back to them. The shape of the stem that goes into the bolt is completely different than the stock charging handle and it won't lock into position. The stock handle has a protrusion on the end similar to a key that catches in the bolt. The GG&G is a straight stem with a recess at the end. Been fighting it for 20 minutes and it pulls right out with very little pressure.

It's the right one. I guess they figure that detent is enough to hold it in place, but it's not even close. The factory handle is not coming out unless the bolt head is pushed back to just the right position to release it. The GG&G pulls right out.

I’ve got 1301 incoming (finally) and I’m going to swap out to a Magpul stock.

Does it really matter if I get the Remington or Mossberg version, or are they the same?

Probably going with the GGG conversion plate either way.

Got my GG&G Charging Handle in today. It sure doesn’t install as securely as the factory one but mine, once installed, you have to pull like heck to get it out. I fired about 25 rounds today and it easily stayed in place.

I still would have preferred they make it like the factory one where the bolt had to be manipulated just right for it to come out.

It's interesting because their website talks about "Murphy". I'll take a stock handle that locks in place over an aftermarket that doesn't.....Murphy and all.

The trigger guard on the 870 is closer to the rear of the receiver than on the Mossbergs, so the angled grip part of the stock is further rearward on the Rem Magpul stock as compared to the Mossberg Magpul stock.

To me the mossberg feels much more comfortable, especially for hammering. The Remington requires a long reach to the trigger … if you have huge hands it might be the one to go with.

The mossberg also has a little more drop than the Remington witch allows you to keep your head up a little more for transitions between targets. If your used to a high mounted red dot on your ar you will fight getting your head down on your shotgun stock and shoot over everything. If you see rib when you pull the trigger youl shoot about a foot high. Bad habit I get into when I’m trying to blaze lol

Pretty much the same for almost every replacement bolt handle on the market.

That led me to buy one of these:

https://www.customguns.co.uk/product-page/big-bolt-release-handle

I have one on my primary 1301T and it is correctly shaped and stays in place. It sticks out a little more than I'd like, but it hasn't caused any issues so far.

I've seen CAD drawings of another offering from another company that I hope comes out soon as that one will be my preferred option. But for now I can tell you the one linked above works.

The reason why the Aridus adapter only works for the Mossberg stock is because that stock works better with the geometry and setup of the 1301. That's why the designer made it specifically for the Mossberg SGA.

I have no desire to put the Remington SGA on my 1301.

I did run similar setups and found that when I went to charge the gun...as one would need to do to use it for home defense...I was pulling the bolt handle out.

But you do you.

The CROM is based on the holes on the 1301T as they come from the factory. The Comp has different holes...but if you drilled the same pattern of holes in the 1301 Comp that are on the 1301T, there's no reason why it wouldn't fit just fine.

Thanks. I was mostly worried about the profiles of the top of the receivers, but now that I take a closer look, the CROM seems to mount to the flat area. Should make for a fairly easy install. Couldn’t be much different than when I installed ghost rings on my 870.
