The Magpul MOE M-LOK Forend is a replacement pump forend for Remington 870 12-gauge shotguns, with M-LOK slots molded in.
The Magpul MOE M-LOK Forend for Remington 870 (MAG496) replaces the factory corn-cob with a modern, hand-filling pump handle carrying integrated M-LOK slots. That means weapon lights, hand stops and sling mounts attach directly to the forend — no clamps, no barrel-band workarounds — exactly where a defensive shotgun needs them.
The extended length and aggressive front and rear hand stops keep your pump hand planted through fast strings, while the reinforced polymer shell shrugs off impacts and weather. It is one of the most functional upgrades available for a working 870.
Key Features
- Integrated M-LOK slots: mount lights and accessories directly
- Aggressive hand-stop texture: positive pump strokes, wet or dry
- Extended, hand-filling profile: better leverage and control
- Reinforced polymer construction: built for working guns
- Four finishes: Black, Flat Dark Earth, Stealth Gray, Orange
Compatibility & Fitment
A direct replacement for the factory forend on Remington 870 12-gauge shotguns, fitting the standard action bar assembly. It is not intended for 20-gauge 870s or other pump models, so check your variant before you buy. Removing the factory forend needs a forend wrench or a competent gunsmith; after that the MOE spins on and locks up tight.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will this forend fit my shotgun?
It is a direct replacement for the factory forend on Remington 870 12 gauge shotguns, so it fits the standard action bar assembly. It is not intended for 20 gauge 870s or other pump models. If you are unsure which variant you have, contact us with the model details before you buy.
What do the M-LOK slots let me add?
The MAG496 has M-LOK slots molded into the forend, so lights, sling mounts and similar accessories bolt straight to it without needing a rail clamp. That keeps the profile slim compared with bolting a rail section on. Anything you fit needs to clear your support hand and the pump stroke, so plan placement before drilling in.
What is it made of and what does fitting involve?
It is reinforced polymer, which keeps weight sensible on the front of the gun and stands up to knocks. Fitting is a straightforward swap onto the existing action bar assembly using ordinary hand tools. If your gun has been altered from factory specification, check the fit carefully first.
Which colors are available and should I match the stock?
It comes in Black, Flat Dark Earth, Stealth Gray and Orange, with orange often chosen where a clearly distinguishable finish is wanted. Many buyers pair it with the Magpul SGA Stock for the 870 so the furniture matches front and rear.
