Here is the 12ga Remington 870 Police Shotgun that the gun shop found for me:
Attachment 24528
New in the box, Remington 870 Police 12ga, with 18” barrel, chambered for 2 3/4" or 3” shells, black matte finish with black synthetic stock, bead front sight, and holds 5 rounds.
Exactly like Bill recommended!
They gave me a HELLUVAH deal! Guess how much for BRAND NEW??
Could have walked out with it today, but they don't stock them... I'll get it in 1 week. He's also going to dismantle a bunch of shells for me and he'll pack them with sand so I can mount them on the rack in the trunk. Then if somebody steals them, I won't feel guilty.

But, that's the problem with speakers: there's a lot of brand loyalty and opinions, so it's hard to gauge a straight answer. Plus, to the untrained/non-caring ear, is one really better than another
In terms of Crutchfield: they're all I use for car audio. Can't beat free shipping, free adapters, and free sheets on how to take apart the car. Plus, their customer service/tech is great.

Did I mention that this was BRAND NEW? Remington 870s go for over $500. They gave me a good deal, but they have to stay in business, too!

Since yours is more 'tactical' than for target/hunting, my new guess is $375. Hope you didn't pay over 4.

I'm sure they can be bought for cheaper at pawn shops and local gun shops, but that's just to give an idea of the LE ones compared to the run of the mill ones.

Sorry for the mis-direction, but I had to lie and say it was a Remington 870 to see if anybody would call me out on it!
It's actually a Remington 870 Police replica. It's a real shotgun, shoots real shells, and is identical to the real Remington 870. The only way to tell it's any different is to take it apart and see it's made with metric hardware instead of SAE hardware!
Price brand new was $229 (including the background check)... a brand new REAL Remington 870 Police shotgun would have cost double that.
I think it will serve me well for the purpose I'm using it for.

BTW, although it's not comparing apples to apples (you have the kappas and an aftermarket h/u), but how would you describe the bass response from your Kappa's (WITHOUT the sub in the rear).
Do the factory door subs provide adequate bass for "normal" situations. I imagine that it would be the same as what it was before, and that replacing the 6x8's will just result in better highs, with the same bass as before from the door subs.
The guy at crutchfield was telling me that the amps for the 6x8's have a filter on them, therefore no bass should really go to them anyway.
Can you confirm any of this for me???

Can't confirm this, but it seemed there was bass coming from them just not a tremendous amount.
