Comfortable to use, easy to install safety - Wilson Combat Dome Head Safety

Don't let the name fool you, this dome head safety is not just for "combat". I purchased this for a home defense Remington 870 build, and it took me a while to get the confidence (and time) up to take apart my 870's trigger. Once I did, I have decided to get one for my hunting 870s also. The ergonomics are excellent, and I find it much easier to take the safety off with a much more natural motion. It does not sit so high enough that I'm concerned about accidentally disengaging the safety, but I think I would still visually check it on occasion if I were handling it with gloves on in freezing weather while hunting -- better safe than sorry.

I had a little extra (but easy) work because I have a side-saddle/rail/heatshield installed on the gun, and it attached with replacement trigger pins. I had to remove that before I could remove the trigger.

On the original 870 without aftermarket parts, installation went much easier than expected. Make sure to have an appropriate sized punch to push out the pin that holds the safety spring and detent. Pin removal and replacement went smoothly. With a little caution and care I didn't lose any parts, and including cleaning the trigger, it took maybe 10 minutes to remove the factory trigger and change the safety. Watching a video tutorial from Youtube first will make this an easy install for most people with even minor mechanical inclination.
