The Streamlight TL-Racker 69601 is a shotgun forend that replaces the Remington 870's own forend and puts a 1000 lumen light inside it.
Bolting a light to a pump shotgun usually means adding a rail, a clamp and a pressure switch with a cable to snag on everything. Replacing the forend outright deletes all three parts of that problem at once.
Streamlight rate it at 1000 lumens with 20,000 candela of peak beam intensity, giving 283 metres of beam and 1.5 hours of runtime from the two CR123A lithium cells supplied. The body is impact-resistant nylon, rated IPX7, measuring 8.00in (20.3 cm) and weighing 12.1 oz (343 g) with batteries fitted.
An elongated switch pad runs down both sides of the forend, so momentary and constant-on are available wherever your support hand happens to be gripping and whichever hand that is — which matters more on a pump gun than anywhere else, because the hand is moving. Fitment is model-specific rather than universal: this version is for the 12-gauge Remington 870, and the compatibility list excludes the 870 Express Supermag, although that exclusion is not printed on Streamlight's own info sheet.

What the TL-Racker 870 fits
This part number is cut for the 12-gauge Remington 870, and the compatibility list does not cover the 870 Express Supermag. Mossberg pumps take different versions of the same forend — the TL-Racker for the Mossberg 500 and 590 and the TL-Racker for the Mossberg 590 Shockwave. Everything else we stock for a shotgun sits in weapon lights.
