Remington Model 870 Express Synthetic 12 Gauge Pump Shotgun – 28" Vent Rib, 3" Chamber, Modified Choke
The Remington Model 870 Express Synthetic pairs the time-tested 870 action with no-nonsense synthetic furniture and a 28-inch vent-rib barrel threaded for Rem Choke tubes. Built on a forged, milled steel receiver and driven by twin action bars, this post-2007 RS-prefix example offers reliable cycling and a matte blued finish that shrugs off glare in the field. A 3" chamber handles modern 2 ¾" or 3" loads, while the installed Modified choke gives versatile shot patterns for upland birds, small game, and clays.

What’s Included
- Remington Model 870 Express Synthetic 12 Gauge pump-action shotgun
- 28" vent-rib barrel with Modified Rem Choke installed
The 28-inch carbon-steel barrel wears a ventilated rib and brass bead for quick target alignment. Remington’s Rem Choke threading lets you change constrictions without gunsmithing; the Modified tube shipped here balances pellet density and spread for all-around use.
Synthetic stock and beavertail fore-end resist moisture and temperature swings, making the shotgun a steady performer in varied climates.

The forged steel receiver is milled from a single billet, a hallmark of the 870 design that promotes strength and longevity. Twin action bars keep the pump stroke smooth and bind-free, even under heavy use.
Chambered for both 2 ¾" and 3" shells, the Model 870 Express Synthetic accepts everything from light target loads to magnum waterfowl rounds. A simple cross-bolt safety provides intuitive, glove-friendly operation.
