Remington now swings the pendulum even further on 870P Police shotgun line offerings. The new 870P MAX carries maximum features for tactical shotgun application. The buildup starts with the standard 870 Police Parkerized 18" barrel shotgun. We've included the Davis Speedfeed® IV-s 13" LOP full pistol grip buttstock for ease of handling and comfort while wearing a vest. (Stock is 1" shorter than a standard full length stock)

Next is the Wilson Combat®/Scattergun Ghost Ring sight system that includes the XS® interchangeable front sight. This system also allows the user to remove the rear sights and put on a low profile front bead for instant bead sight acquisition. Last but not least is the Surefire® Tactical fore-end flashlight with momentary & toggle switch ON/OFF application. Other features include Remington's new R3 recoil pad to lessen the felt recoil of full load buckshot and slugs as well as provide a quicker second shot recovery.

 :'( Once again, I'm depressed that I'm not going and will not be able to enter the auction.

Thanks again, to everyone that donated something.

Once gain Dan Gunnell has come through for AFTE and donated this beautiful stain glass.

Minimum Bid $200.00

Jamie and all members unable to attend,

There is no rule that says you can't bid by proxy if you see something here you really want.  I recommend all AFTE Members not attending, that see something they would like, to find a fellow member that will do your bidding.  This would definitely help the association in raising funds.

The beautiful stain glass piece of art was made and donated by Don Gunnell (Dan's Dad).  I just received it today and hopefully it won't disappear before the bidding starts!!!

Sorry Don :)

All members attending or bidding by proxy,

I have been advised that minimum bids will be set on all auction items.  The first I have been made aware of is the stain glass piece.  I will begin to post the minimum bid under each item as they become available to me.  Thank you.
